I've mentioned a few times in the animals thread that there is a really horrible animal cruelty case going on right now out in New Jersey, and I think around 30 different sanctuaries have all come together to help get the animals out and clean up the place it happened. I've seen videos and pictures that some of the sanctuaries have been posting, and it is just nightmarish, with trash and shit everywhere and sick and skinny animals living in the same pastures where the decaying bodies of the dead. And despite all of that, they're still there, and have now moved around 100 animals out of the place. The thing that really makes this hard is that the person responsible was a member of their own sanctuary community, they worked with them on a regular basis, and was a neighbor of the woman who has been in charge of this whole thing. They really are my heroes, for going through that, for seeing what was happening, and doing something about it.
Here's a partial list of some of the sanctuaries that have been involved:
My other heroes right now are the doctors and nurses who have been dealing with the COVID pandemic. Some of them have given up being with their families, and all of them have been risking their lives by potentially exposing themselves to this deadly virus.
I know a lot of people talk about athletes or actors, or people like that being their heroes, and that's fine for them, but my heroes are the people who are out there saving lives,and making the world a better place.
