We posted this story some time ago. However, it reminds us of the uniqueness of every creature on this planet...
Here is a story written by a pastor about one of God's creatures, a little Silkie hen named Liza, who exhibited great courage when her brood was faced with danger. The video/story shows that animals have a sense of responsibility, emotions, personality, and feelings.
We all know of animals such as our horses, dogs, cats, parrots, cockatoos, parakeets, pigs, etc., and even pet ducks that respond to us, express loyalty and love, and are real characters at times displaying their unique personalities which only proves to endear them more to their owners. Different species continue to amaze us when they become true friends when, with all logic, they shouldn't be.
Shouldn't we, therefore, treat all animals with kindness, care, and love. This hold true for those being raised for food, also.
Interestingly, by raising an animal in more gentle ways and free range, and not treating an animal harshly or instilling fear in them, studies have shown that it actually improves the quality of the meat: It is healthier for you.
So, sit back and enjoy the little video,
Donna
BTW: Just so you know in case you are sharing with children... Everything turns out all right. You'll see what I mean as you watch.:)
