I received this and think is worth sharing and there is a link at the bottom to the article on the net. Everyone can form their own conclusions, tho I feel there is some truth to this. If you agree, please keep forwarding.
PLEASE – READ BELOW … and then … DO NOT SUPPORT THESE MOVIES … OR ANYONE ASSOCIATED WITH THEM! Why should they ‘get rich’ on the backs of suffering animals????!!
Additionally, please spread the word … all over the country. Remember, a committed group CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE – although, sadly, not for these animals.
One of the dirty little secrets is the abuse of animals in movies. Patch reports that on Wednesday, activists protested the premiere over animal abuse allegations. Tweet, the giraffe, collapsed and died after wrapping his 'Zookeeper' scenes. According to PETA, "Tweet spent the last few months of his life confined to a 20-foot-by-20-foot stall, which was barely large enough for the 18-foot-tall giraffe to lie down in. In their natural habitat, giraffes live in vast home ranges of up to 400 square miles. Earlier this year, reports surfaced that an elephant named Tai was abused by trainers. Video footage showed Tai and other elephants being beaten with bull hooks and receiving electric shocks, screaming out in pain. The animal was featured in the film "WATER FOR ELEPHANTS" and is reportedly in "Zookeeper" as well. Tai's abuse outraged viewers and animal rights activists, prompting a lawsuit against the training team and a reward offered for reporting abusive trainers.
