“Even today’s highly overbred domestic pigs still possess the behavioural repertoire of their free-roaming cousins. So, what would happen if the borders fell down? Sows would lay down in comfort to feed their young. They would create nests for them in small, leafy ditches, and wouldn’t have to push their noses into sad imitations over a blank, slatted floor. A sow spends the first days after birth alone with her young before gradually introducing them to the family. Free-roaming pigs also follow the kindergarten principle: if a sow needs to go and look for food, another will look after the little ones. ~ Hilal Sezgin” FreedomPigsAnimal WelfareEthologyAnimal BehaviourFarrowing CratesNatural Behaviour Book:Animal Utopia: Perspektiven eines neuen Mensch-Tier-Verhältnisses = Perspectives of a New Human-Animal Relationship Source: Animal Utopia: Perspektiven eines neuen Mensch-Tier-Verhältnisses = Perspectives of a New Human-Animal Relationship
“Was nun das Mensch-Tier-Verhältnis im Besonderen angeht, sähe ich meine Ideale verwirklicht, wenn Tiere ein eigenständiges Leben unabhängig von der menschlichen Gesellschaft führen und die konkreten Beziehungen zwischen Mensch und Tier sich auf beiderseitig freiwilliger Basis gestalten.” MenschenUtopieSelbstbestimmungTiereFreier WilleGewaltfrei Book:>> mensch_tier << Source: >> mensch_tier <<
