The World Of Animal Programs and Television; Making Big Bucks Off The Backs Of Animals

                                    When I saw first hand decades back the way law enforcement ignored, with very few exceptions, animal cruelty and dog fighting, I hoped that the enforcement of these crimes would move fully into the hands of law enforcement. Instead, a number of animal organizations have done everything to resist this, much to the delight of law enforcement, which is discussed in other blogs. Giving the illusion of doing something meaningful to address animal cruelty and dog fighting is a huge money maker. People do not see, or do not want to see the ugly truths regarding the widespread exploitation of animal cruelty and dog fighting by a variety of organizations and people.

                                     Along for the ride to glamorize certain animal organizations and maintain the aforementioned pathology are the very prolific and profitable animal television shows. I tried appealing to them decades back to think of animals first, and not promote incredibly lucrative and exploitative animal organizations. Needless to say, I never was the face or voice of money, and no one ever listened to me. Now decades later, there is enormous and completely unnecessary pain and cruelty inflicted upon animals that never had to be and does not have to continue to be inflicted.

                                      Conservation and animals are big business. They bring fortunes to organizations and certain media conglomerates.

                                        Recently there was a program about a reckless man as he jeopardized the safety of himself, those around him including his film crew, and lions themselves as he foolishly did things that defy common sense. Any and all ways bucks can be made off of animals are tried. 

                                         Animals will remain big money makers. Too bad for animals and conservation that the organizations, for profit and nonprofit, and the animal related media conglomerates, will continue taking from  animals far more than they will ever give. The cult of loving animals requires only an expression of loyalty and love to the cult, no questions asked. Efficacy, accountability does not exist in that demented, self righteous, incredibly lucrative world.

                                         A certain media outlet from another country sponsored a beautiful documentary regarding a wilderness area and its wildlife.  No glory seekers, no sensational nonsense, no self righteous pretentious clowns, no idiots picking up animals they should not be touching. Just nature, without all the fanfare, which in and of itself is enough. No animals, no conservation, no nature to be exploited. All profits went back to the reserve.
