. Jordan, Louie and Andi (left to right) . . Louie (middle) passed away recently at around 3 1/2 years of age. Considered an older turkey from how they are bred and used for consumption, his organs started to fail. He had a great life at @piedmont_farm_animal_refuge . He was left at the doorsteps of @farmsanctuary in Watkins Glen, NY, along with 14 other turkeys. The countless visitors over the past few years at Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge got to fall in love with Louie. He was a very special turkey to so many people, and a remarkable ambassador during Thanksgiving. His sentience is just as important as any other animal that should be cherished and loved. . . . . #kindnessmatters #loveoneanother# #savetheanimals #animalrights #stopspeciesism #turkeystagram #turkeyburger #turkeybacon #loveanimals #nikonartists #animalsarefriendsnotfood #sentientbeings #crueltyfree #veganlife #herbivore #vegano #instavegan #plantpower #veganaf #veganismo #instavegan #ig_cameras_united #nikonphotographers #justgoshoot #nikonanimals #maketheconnection #helpanimals #chooseveg #dontturnaway #fortheanimals 🌱 (at Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge)

Alaska & Trish . . . Alaska was rescued by a compassionate 13 year old who overheard a customer talking about turning his newly purchased baby chickens into nuggets. She asked the man to spare the life of this chicken so that they may live at a sanctuary, and so the man agreed. . . . . #kindnessmatters #chickens #chickennuggets #chickenwings #loveoneanother# #savetheanimals #animalrights #stopspeciesism #loveanimals #animalsarefriendsnotfood #sentientbeings #crueltyfree #veganlife #herbivore #vegano #instavegan #plantpower #veganaf #veganismo #instavegan #ig_cameras_united #nikonphotographers #justgoshoot #nikonanimals #maketheconnection #helpanimals #chooseveg #dontturnaway #fortheanimals 🌱 (at Trew Love Rescue & Sanctuary)

This is Andrew. He is a male who was sexed wrong and was debeaked and decombed at a factory farm for eggs. He is shy and rarely crows. Last week he allowed volunteers to pet him for the very first time. . . . #kindnessmatters #loveoneanother# #savetheanimals #animalrights #stopspeciesism #loveanimals #animalsarefriendsnotfood #sentientbeings #crueltyfree #veganlife #herbivore #vegano #instavegan #plantpower #veganaf #veganismo #instavegan #chickfila #chickensofinstagram #rooster #ig_cameras_united #nikonphotographers #justgoshoot #nikonanimals #maketheconnection #helpanimals #chooseveg #dontturnaway #fortheanimals 🌱 (at Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge)

Stitch the rooster. Kind and gorgeous. Rescued at just a day old, and cared and loved by @ziggysrefuge / Jay & Kristin have watched him flourish into this spectacular adult. . . . . #kindnessmatters #rooster #roosterfights #chickennuggets #chickennwaffles #chickens #loveoneanother# #savetheanimals #animalrights #stopspeciesism #loveanimals #animalsarefriendsnotfood #sentientbeings #crueltyfree #veganlife #herbivore #vegano #instavegan #plantpower #veganaf #veganismo #instavegan #ig_cameras_united #nikonphotographers #justgoshoot #nikonanimals #maketheconnection #helpanimals #chooseveg #dontturnaway #fortheanimals 🌱 (at Ziggy's Refuge Farm Sanctuary)

The coachman dressed in wool tailcoat was quick to say this horse was a rescue. Mounting pressure from locals against horses used as machines to pull tourists cloaked in a novelty has put this so called novelty of a business on the defense in most cities. The disconnect is literally everywhere, here in this picture, and the choices we make when we choose not see the suffering of others. Horses aren’t machines, they don’t enjoy riders, and they certainly don’t like pulling heavy objects, and to think otherwise is selfish.

I feel the pain of the beings I see long after the vigil is over. Knowing that you're looking into the eyes of an animal that's about to be brutally killed and you have no recourse to stop it is incredibly difficult to cope with at times. Having said that, I'm glad I was there to show them kindness. I hope they felt some loving energy, that the few drops of water I gave them offered a bit of relief in the cramped conditions and oppressive heat. I take a few days to mourn and feel grief, and continue the work of educating. - Mary C . . Mary C and many others #bearingwitness at one of the worlds largest slaughterhouses. 33,000 pigs slaughtered daily. (at Tar Heel, North Carolina)

“When I see bacon, I see a pig, I see a little friend, and that’s why I can’t eat it. Simple as that.” -Paul McCartney . . Ryan Phillips embraces his companion, Charlotte, at the campus of UNC as part of their tour across america to help spread awareness and break down our readiness to accept that some animals are here for our entertainment and consumption while some our meant for our love. Let’s love all animals and teach our children well.

“Where is your Empathy” A moment is all that is offered to the countless cows that enter this slaughterhouse in Greeley, CO as sentient beings and come out as a product, sold and purchased at grocery stores. A product that remains in high demand despite the harm we put our fellow earthlings through. Few would accept their fate after looking into the souls of these cows as these activists did and will continue to do until we all realize the misery which society unnecessarily buys into. (at Greeley, Colorado)

“Over 100 million farmed animals are taken to slaughter each day” and about 70 billion animals annually. It’s hard to fathom. The demand for animal consumption is greater then ever and our planet is in jeopardy more than ever. Farming animals is a violent means to a food system that is breaking our health, the environment and to every sentient animal who suffers at the hands of corporate greed. (at Tar Heel, North Carolina)

“In Loving Memory for the Chickens, Turkeys and Pigs” - there’s no greater burden then knowing the immeasurable and unnecessary pain we cause to the billions of sentient animals each year. Thank you to all activists who stand up against popular opinion, against great odds, and against the powerful machines churning profit. @nc.save bearing witness in #northcarolina where nearly 200 trucks carrying pigs, turkeys and chickens roll past and onto their final destination after a miserable and shortened life.

Kristen and Jay started @ziggysrefuge after an amazing journey with @ziggythetravelingpiggy who now resides along with Reynoso, a stunning #andalusian pictured here - photographed right before the sky lit on fire in one of the most gorgeous sunsets I’ve ever seen. In just under a year, they’ve managed to create a gorgeous sanctuary and safe haven for rescued farm animals like Reynoso, and so many others with stories to warm your heart. Come visit! (at Ziggy's Refuge Farm Sanctuary)

Anna and Gertie @jennaandfriendsanimalsanctuary - Jenna and Friends is a small sanctuary in North Carolina caring for pigs and a playful rooster named Lester. Pics to come! Any small donation to them would be a huge help! https://www.facebook.com/donate/1947011805615200/ (at Jenna and Friends Animal Sanctuary)

Raised for profit, a breeder donkey, and nothing more. After getting sick, Max was rescued by the @aspca - Max gets a second chance now living at his forever home at the gorgeous @ziggysrefuge here in North Carolina, home to many farmed animals like Max. A visit here, and you’ll fall in love. Seriously. (at Ziggy's Refuge Farm Sanctuary)

Wagging tails and some bonding time. Gertie and Daisy Mae were busy running in and out of their barn, but that didn’t stop them from saying hi from time to time. They are both rescues and living at @jennaandfriendsanimalsanctuary in North Carolina. Thanks so much to @annagailoneal for giving them a life they deserve. (at Jenna and Friends Animal Sanctuary)

Meant for dog food. Instead, they were #rescued for a simple reason, to live a life, something we all deserve and want. Captured with the golden sun setting over a pond built just for these sweet ducks at @piedmont_farm_animal_refuge (at Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge)
