Animal rights activists are people living all over the world who spend some or most of their time protesting or otherwise working against factory farming, animal testing and other abuses of the animal kingdom. An animal activist believes that animals deserve to live happy, cruelty-free lives, and in addition they do something to help create a world where that is possible. What many people don’t realize is that animal rights activists aren’t just the people you see holding up signs when you’re commuting to work in the morning. They’re certainly not violent protestors who burn down lab buildings with the animals inside. In fact, they’re people you work with, people in your family, and people you pass on the street every day. Sure, some of them do hold signs and attend protests. Others are animal rights activists in their own way. So what are animal rights activists — and should you maybe be one, too?
