Un millón de perros se pierden cada año 2\. Hay más de un millón de gatos extraviados 3\. Gatos y perros extraviados son robados de las calles para experimentación, peleas de perros y comercio de pieles. 4\. Muchos animales son brutalmente tratados, ahogados, pateados, obligados a morir de hambre o abandonados. 5\. Millones de animales de granja son masacrados para proveer comida a nuestras mascotas. 6\. Hay muchísimos buenos hogares disponibles para los miles de animales abandonados o no queridos. Comprar en tiendas de mascotas apenas reduce el número. 7\. Los efectos a largo plazo del comercio de animales son grandemente escondidos, con literalmente cientos de santuarios de animales, grupos de protección de los derechos de los animales y la naturaleza e individuos siendo obligados a limpiar el desorden. 8\. La piel de los animales destruidos es utilizada en el comercio de pieles y sus cuerpos son rutinariamente convertidos en grasa. 9\. La compra y venta de animales no son más que esclavitud. 10\. El comercio de animales alienta a los niños a ver a los animales como objetos de juego sin sentimientos o derechos. 11\. Animales pequeños (conejos, hamsters, aves, peces , etc) son condenados a vivir un infierno en pequeñas jaulas. 12\. Las mascotas sufren de aburrimiento y privación psicológica por la ignorancia humana. Se les niega la compañía de sus propias especies y el acceso a su ambiente natural. 13\. Los animales son comletamente dependientes de nosotros. Nunca podemos satisfacer sus necesidades totalmente, por bien intencionados que seamos. 14\. Los animales son criados con deformidades para cumplir con lo estipulado para la crianza. Esto causa problemas de salud a largo plazo en muchos animales. 15\. Los animales sufren de mutilaciones quirúrgicas, por ejemplo, se les corta la cola o las orejas sólo para cumplir con los estándares estipulados para la crianza. 16\. Los animales que no cumplen los requisitos son usualmente destruidos. 17\. Las compañías fabricantes de drogas tienen un fuerte interés en el comercio de animales; ganan millones de dólares a costa del sufrimiento de los animales. 18\. Las tiendas de mascotas y los criadores prosperan gracias a 'compradores compasivos' que compran animales por lástima, ignorando que, esto sólo alienta más la crianza. 19\. Se estima que, por cada ave salvaje que llega a la tienda de mascotas, nueve murieron en el camino. 20\. El cínico intercambio comercial de los comerciantes de mascotas ha crecido masivamente en las llamadas ''granjas de cachorros''. Los animales son criados como si fueran fábricas, las hembras son cruzadas sólo para ver a sus cachorros ser robados antes de ser destetados. Acabadas y viejas antes de tiempo, las madres son abandonadas o asesinadas. | \| \| \|---\|---\| A note on this archive. The history section of this website is drawn from a body of legacy content originally compiled by John Davis, former manager of the International Vegetarian Union. It represents his curation of historical material, and in places includes passages written by him directly. Over the years, the IVU website has migrated between several different hosting servers. In the course of these migrations, a number of PDF files were unfortunately lost, and **some links to PDF documents may no longer function**. Where this is the case, we have chosen to leave the original link text in place, as it may itself carry information of historical value. - Hits: 1281 ### Vegan Recipes - [![Chinese Noodle & Mushroom Soup](https://ivu.org/media/zoo/images/mushroom_soup_noodles_1c53741cf3a7748bf1f9bdfc699a3545.jpg "Chinese Noodle & Mushroom Soup")](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/item/chinese-noodle-mushroom-soup.html "Chinese Noodle & Mushroom Soup") #### [Chinese Noodle & Mushroom Soup](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/item/chinese-noodle-mushroom-soup.html "Chinese Noodle & Mushroom Soup") [Chinese](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/chinese.html) [Noodles](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/noodles.html) [Soups](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/soup.html) -
