Thank you for sparking the campaigner in thousands of people worldwide, following the coverage of Ridglan Farms rescues. This is surely the beginning of the end of animal testing.

Good news about the coverage, but until people stop wanting bacon and all animal products at low prices, the fight continues. That said, one small step is a huge step. Thank you, Wayne and everyone!

I don't do Zoom, but look forward to hearing how we can help.

Truly wonderful to see so much coverage. The Ridgeland case really opened people’s eyes. People seem to be very supportive and open to learning more.

Yes, the Ridglan situation was the start of an avalanche for helping animals, thank you Wayne 🙏

There's yet people for whom dogs is best friends. And pigeons have always kept close company-- https://phys.org/news/2026-05-friend-foul-exploring-ancient-bond.html . Camels too-- https://ancientneareasttoday.substack.com/p/28-may-2026-did-phoenicians-bring . What seems to have taken over since the Enlightenment is a sense of white jacket supremacy closely in league with mercantile commodification of sentient life and the biosphere-- https://aeon.co/essays/lets-save-the-enlightenment-baby-from-its-muddied-bathwater . Schools of knowledge and logic just don't take a friendly attitude towards anything that breathes anymore-- https://theecologist.org/2026/may/22/climate-defeatism-and-moral-abdication .

I agree with you James. There’s so much need of change in attitude towards all animals worldwide for sure. I feel that ending the use of animals in labs is so important and hopefully this will happen.

Wayne has started an avalanche with what happened at Ridglan! This is an avalanche of freedom for all animals who are being held captive and are suffering. Thank you Wayne, our hero, leader and catalyst for change on how we treat animals!

We did it together, Brenda!

Y'all did a great thing. Moving mountains and now looking what is happening!!! So much has been known but ignored and crickets while collecting $$$$. The money, taxes we the people pay. I DID NOT ok to torture, mutilate, experiment on animals and killing them. That is not ok....AT ALL.

Your msg. is very inspiring, Wayne. You & all of us that see the inhumane treatment of animals was brought to our attention from what you & rescuers did to help free the animals held against their will. We won't be satisfied until all animals are free to live their lives the way they weren't meant to and it's not in cages waiting to die at the hands of immoral people.

too late for the zoom, but I look forward to get insights how to continue to support, besides donations. Do we keep writing the DA?

Wayne Hsiung's avatar

Probably best to pivot to the AG and Gov. stay tuned.

Social media platforms like TikTok have been a tremendous help in getting the spotlight on issues like this. It opens peoples eyes to what is really going on around them. I see more and more TikTok posts everyday about animal testing and how people are against it. If this is to ever end, we need to keep the light on this issue. File complaints with your local congressman or woman and tell them to stop giving your federal tax dollars to support animal testing. Tell them to end all animal testing. An email is not going to do anything but it get stuck in a giant pile with all the other emails they receive, but a congressional complaint has to be answered.

I've gone beyond "what Jesus Christ has taught us."

So has activist Anita Krajnc, see what happened to her because she took pity on a pig:

--After five court appearances and a failed attempt to have the charge against her thrown out, Toronto Pig Save activist Anita Krajnc will finally stand trial August 24 on charges of criminal mischief – for giving water to a thirsty pig in a truck on its way to Fearmans Pork Incorporated in Burlington on June 22, 2015. The alleged crime – interference with the use, enjoyment and operation of property – was captured on video.

It shows pigs on the lower deck of the truck panting with mouths agape and Krajnc reaching in to give one of them water from a bottle while the truck is stopped at a traffic light outside FearmansIt shows the driver getting out and telling Krajnc not to put water in the truck. SHE RESPONDS BY QUOTING JESUS: “If they are thirsty give them water.” To which the driver counters, “You know what? THESE ARE NOT HUMANS, you dumb frickin’ broad.”

Those beagle are the lucky ones. Pets, family members. Pigs, chickens, sheep, cows, etc--not so much. Property, meat, milk, egg machines.

If "livestock" animals were only dogs . . . . ?  

My parents had me go to a Catholic parochial school.  The teacher in one class told a story of some travelers who came upon a barn that was on fire.  Inside were pigs screaming.  Her comment?  "Hmmm, smells like bacon!"  The class burst out in laughter.  

It's bad enough when religious clergy ignore animal abuse and suffering, but worse when they teach people to MOCK animal suffering and ignore it.

I wish I had known about the Zoom. Is there a recording of it? I would like to get something going in Colorado. When is the next Zoom?
