There’s one animal abuse/cruelty PSA that I’ve never forgotten; well, they are all hard to forget, but there’s this one in particular. I don’t remember much about it, but it aired fairly regularly around 2001/02, and the way it open was truly horrifying. There was a woman who, in a voiceover as these various things were shown, asked the viewer “what if?“ The two things I remember about that part of the ad were a horse getting whipped, and the narrator saying something like… And trust me, this is the stuff of nightmares (I know from experience because I’ve regularly had nightmares about this part of the ad)… “Or, what if you were a dog, about to be butchered in a supermarket,“ while sounds of dogs barking and howling played over her narration. She later appears on the screen and I remember she had a dog of her own, who she named Denver. Even now, I can’t even mention that ad, particularly the part with the dogs, without getting chills. Anyone else remember that one? As disturbing as it is, I’ve actually been trying to track it down even though I’m sure it’ll give me nightmares all over again.
I am so glad scavengers are included. The fact the maggots and flys feast on the corpse and the rotting body makes me wanna puke… it’s even scarier compared to the chase… the psa is gross and at the same time gives me the chills. I really wish that ad never made its way on television

This makes me feel bad even though I dont abuse animals
Also the fact that I own literal guinea pigs is...ouch.
If you're not vegan then you infact do abuse animals
Please don’t abuse animals, my heart just melts seeing animals being abused.
Btw peta killed a ton of animals
I hope to God you're vegan while saying this, otherwise you're a total hypocrite
Save the animals
I would destroy all animals if i could i would never harm a human but i will enjoy arming animals
I volunteer in a rescue and some animals come in from horrendous circumstances...but the visuals make it way worse
No more animal abuse
Hope to God you're vegan, otherwise you're a huge hypocrite
Agreed
Agreed
Stop Animal Exploitation had a great voiceover guy.
