Before the internet, this is how many of us found out what humans were doing to animals.

No More Puppy and Kitten Mills! Adopt don't shop...
The Reality of Puppy Mills video - Puppy mills are large breeding facilities where dogs live in deplorable conditions, often without necessary food, water, or veterinary care. This is a look inside. Duration: Two and a Half Minutes
The Hellish Life of a Puppy Mill Dog (video) Duration: four and a half minutes
Did you know that puppy mills were the idea of the U.S. Department of Agriculture in the post-Second War Era, encouraging farmers to raise puppies as an alternative “crop.” Treated as livestock, the puppies were mass-produced in cages and barns.
This paved the way for pet stores to open in response to the growing supply of puppies. More about puppy (and kitten) mills here.
Save a life and make a shelter pet adoption, your only option, when you are looking for a pet to add to your family.

A Severely Neglected Dog Gets A Fairytale Rescue (video)
One more good reason to adopt and not shop. So many animals are in need of loving homes, we don't need breeders (either certified or backyard breeders, and certainly NOT puppy mills) contributing to the global pet over-population problem. We need homes for the animals that are already here, rather than adding more and more animals each breeding season. Please desex/neuter your pets, and when you are ready to add a new fur baby to your household, visit your local shelter to rescue an animal, rather than give money to a breeder to keep this terrible cycle of animal abuse and death going.
The Song of the Endangered Species (video duration: two and half minutes)
A song on the plight of so many of our beautiful world's animals (and plants). Thanks to Al Brenner for this great song.

Probably the most important videos you will ever watch!
We only have one small planet to take care of, and we are killing it. We need to change our ways immediately, if all living things that depend on our beautiful world, including humans, are to survive. A must-see!
Another video about mother earth, similar to the first video in this post, but with other important factors and information covered.
A stunning video showing the diversity and wonder of the amazing planet, we call home.

Koko the Gorilla Meets Robin William - Touching and insightful video!
Koko is extremely proficient in (human) sign language. 'Carers for the world's most intelligent gorilla claim she was 'close to tears' following news of Robin Williams' death - 13 years after video captured the two becoming fast friends." Story here.
Who says other animals, other than human animals, don't feel emotion?!
