Joaquin Phoenix Rescues Mother Cow and Newborn Calf Day after Academy Awards Win

- Update: • Joaquin Phoenix Reunit...
Mirroring his Oscars acceptance speech in which he spoke to the plight of mother cows and their babies, Phoenix helps to liberate a cow and her newborn calf from a Los Angeles slaughterhouse and bring them to Farm Sanctuary.
Phoenix said, "I never thought I’d find friendship in a slaughterhouse, but meeting Anthony and opening my heart to his, I realize we might have more in common than we do differences. Without his act of kindness, Liberty and her baby calf, Indigo, would have met a terrible demise. Although we will continue to fight for the liberation of all animals who suffer in these oppressive systems, we must take pause to acknowledge and celebrate the victories, and the people who helped achieve them. Shaun Monson, Amy Jean Davis, and the entire LA Animal Save community, have taken their pain of bearing witness and turned it into effective, diplomatic advocacy for the voiceless. As a result, Liberty and Indigo will never experience cruelty or the touch of a rough hand.
My hope is, as we watch baby Indigo grow up with her mom Liberty at Farm Sanctuary, that we’ll always remember that friendships can emerge in the most unexpected places; and no matter our differences, kindness and compassion should rule everything around us."

A lot of people ask what the point of saving animals from the slaughterhouse is, what difference would it make. Just saving that calf and her mother made all the difference in the world for them.

@@Gallowglass7 you wanted say, if we dont massproduce them, they dont have to be killed,or?. Question: How long does a chicken, turkey, sheep, pig, cow.. have a livetime? Sounds that natural?! And we changed them to get more of their bodies. More, bigger, profit! It is, as always, all about money: look at the human population, and how they have to live. Is money our god? No way, not for me! But what can i, you, he she.. change? If we really wish to put an end to our ongoing international and social problems we must declare Earth and all of its resources as the common heritage of all the world's people! Only then, earth will become the paradise it deserves for all its inhabitants, also animals! And this represents 'resource based economy': m.ruclips.net/user/thevenusprojectmediafeatured
it's like asking what's the point of appealing a prisoner's death sentence when they're innocent
For *Joaquin*
"I prefer harvested"
Joaquin: *murdered okay*

Meat is Murder
Wish I cud be vegan ... It makes me so sad to know that I'm eating animals that have been killed for my food 😡

Yes. What a great observation. Cool.....

Great note
super comment and perception.
Right on. Ride on. Rise on. ✊
There are days when I feel that there is no hope for humanity, and on those days my heart feels crushed, but then there are also days when I come across humans like Joaquin Phoenix, and I know that all is not lost. 🌱
JESUSCHRIST IS OUR HOPE !!❤🙏🏼🌎
@@SamuelDiaz-ht6mp No.
100% Agree. Kind people like you give me hope too.
Joaquin is a luciferian, you're an influencer. Joel Saladin is a man
hope brother
Joaquin is a beautiful man.
Rami Malek is more beautiful
@@itzbenny5004 I much prefer the Compassionate men.
Me too.
An awesome guy and a great actor Joaquin Phoenix definitely cares about animals.
It is quite relative. I find that thing particularly ugly for it's expertise in fake, deception, for it's ignorance about living beings to the point that he discriminate against plants. He might be pulling just another one of his fake role and people like you are: so true what he says... Hmm, when fake becomes more important than trueness, reality.

There were tears of joy in my eyes after seeing this beautiful video..God bless everyone involved..Hello from India 🙏🙏🙏
Dorin Tibulca he never said anything about that. I’m sure this quote is not directed in that manner. This family has never stated anything about that. They lost an immediate family member. They know about the loss of life. They suffer every day I’m sure. I also come from a family that lost many babies. It doesn’t mean you can’t be passionate about any life form in general, animal or human. Just because you haven’t heard him touch on that subject doesn’t mean it’s not of importance.
The way he speaks to the CEO.. Joaquin is a true role model for meeting everyone with love and compassion even if he strongly disagrees with them. I LOVE him.
I just love him too!😍♥️
That CEO has a heart of gold.
Joaquin is the shit
I agree.....
MyCouchPullsOut I dont As are you.
Saving the mother and calf won't change the world, but for the innocent pair of animals, their worlds have certainly changed.
Phoenix has a soft spot for animals, what a good guy.
God bless him thousand times!!!
Man this comment did numbers
Yeah cause he lost his mind
Yah lol while banking over 50mill... Guys got houses bigger than any human can want. But hey killing cow bad
@@cobinmitchell6829 just like you lost your balls. ;-)
@@manuelgarces7312 Or maybe he paid from his own pocket to save that poor baby and mother! Your carcass-eaters prejudices and brain washed by ignorance, fear, prejudice and religion is the scariest thing of all.
@@Innuband lol your the one being brainwashed into thinking Joaquin is some sort of hero when he's actually contributing to one of the most wasteful induatries.. put his money where his mother is and stop making millions for movies in his multi million dollar home.
To normal people this is equivelent to him pouring a glass of water on a forest fire and people calling him a hero when the firefightera do all the work llol.
I’m not vegan. But the guy saying “harvest” and Joaquin replying “murder” each time was fucking awesome.
Should be vegan
Omg please consider it. It's really not hard, (I don't mean that condescendingly I just mean if I can do it, anyone can,) it helps to speak to a dietician first, and follow other vegan groups then you'll find cooking vegan is actually really easy and fast to get a hang of, and a LOT of products are cruelty free (target, Walmart, raleigh's, etc,) it is so so so rewarding for your health and conscious. I feel more connected to myself now too.
And yea the murder bit was great.'you don't "harvest" animals, they're living beings too.
So why aren't you? It's getting easier by the month
J K anyone can do whatever they want, that doesn’t make it right.
@Peter Rasputin bullshit . Choose your path.
Just imagine, giving birth in a house of death. they know they're surrounded by death with no way out. Thank-you Joaquin, for saving her and her calf. If they could speak I know they'd tell you how good it feels.
they can and do speak. most don't understand listen or care. we need to change to a vegan world where we do understand and care. it will benefit us all.
The human equivalent would be a woman giving birth in a death camp. I don't know why more people aren't bothered by factory farms and slaughter houses, especially because of that parallel.
This sounds like holocaust conc camps
@@Ganpignanus we need to change to a vegan world? Ok bud
So would u go to planned parenthood and save a baby with the same passion? DOUBTFUL
I was hanging out in a field that my friends and i frequently hung out in (country folk). That night all the cows were screaming. It was the saddest most mournful thing I'd ever heard. I asked what was wrong with the cows thinking they may be afraid of something. I was informed that all of their babies had been sold at auction. Changed my life.
Omg🥲. That’s terrible to hear!!!
So support real ethical farming
@@anthonyman8008 there's no ethical farming. animal agriculture is fundamentally cruel.
@@caramel7050 there are no cells in your brain
So you are vegan now ?
Look into a cow's eyes; all you can see is peace.
I see food.
@@ShallowDepression Peace of Sirloin
@@bunsonhoneydew9099 piece of cholesterol
ShallowDepression
I see a person who need to be more informed
I'm not saying animals aren't food for most people, sadly that is true.. and you too could end up food for some beast in the wrong circumstances. I said: LOOK INTO A COW'S EYES: the way you look at your pet, scratch it's chin, rub its forehead. They are pure peace, especially if you look at the depth and stillness, utterly peace in their eyes. They may die in 60 seconds, 59 seconds too long. And those 60 seconds and the time before it happens are terror. Just terror, adrenaline, pain, confusion, agitation.
The way the media and headlines presented this, was as if Joaquin went into a random slaughterhouse and caused a chaos but he was actually so civilized, and kind, he listened carefully and he even tried to form bonds and understand the other side of the people working there; even if you're not a vegan you have to admit that he's a truly wonderful person!

Gurbai Eboi ya but hes also a good actor..... ya know acting to get a response.. hard to tell when the acting stops... im sure hes genuine.
The difference between us and lion is that we can eat and thrive different food. Human don't have to choose to kill animals for food
Typically I would agree, but humans are omnivores (just like bears). There are some of us who can live purely off of fruits, veges, and grains, and some who need meat. Like my aunt for example.
She lived as a vegetarian for 15 years before her doctor told her that her body was not properly absorbing nutrients (like protein) from beans and eggplants (which are used to substitute the nutrients found in meat) and that if she didn't start eating meat, she would potentially die (or at the very least develop illnesses associated with malnutrition). Naturally, she was devastated, but she did start eating the minimum amount her doctor suggested. So no, not all humans "choose" to kill animals for food.
Morals are fantastic, and caring for animals is wonderful, but please don't ignore basic biology.
Still, the way we handle the meat industry is sickening. There's no doubt that there could be much better and more humane ways to get meat, and that humans need to eat less meat, and that slaughterhouses are just that, _slaughter_ houses, but I can't support the "everyone should be vegan/vegetarian or they're _MURDERERS_ " mentality because it's just not reasonable when accounting for human biology.
Body adapts over time with dietary habits. There might be exceptions like your aunt. Hope she is better now.
Chiisai Ookami It isn’t basic biology. You can’t carelessly be a vegan, you have to make sure that your body is getting the nutrients it needs.
@@ChiisaiOokami saying that we don't need meat as a general statement isn't ignoring basic biology, if anything basic biology shows the vast majority of us don't need meat. Unlike carnivorous animals that unvariably need meat to survive, your aunt is an exception amongst the human species, not the rule.
There is still hope on earth when guys like Phoenix exist
This planet need people like Joaquin! We all should do such great things our lives. Directly or indirectly people should not contribute their hard earned money towards cruel people and their cruel business. All animals deserve better life like us.

@@animalsarebeautifulpeople3094 I am Indian and India is the best place for vegetarians unfortunately when we Hindu activists try to save cows then ppl say that we are doing it for religious purposes because Hindus from the begning of time have worshiped animals as their diety. So India is kind of great in that.
Wdym?
He's one of the few actors to put in action in what he believes
I hate when actors give political speech's because I know most of them do it for me publicity instead of good.

It is stupid...wish he would go to Planned Parenthood and save an actual BABY from being slaughtered.
mizzouwendy stop trolling every comment and twisting it with your bullshit pro life propaganda
mizzouwendy You do realise that by forcing a woman or CHILD to have a baby, you’re killing a life that already exists?
I suffer very badly from depression that is caused by knowing what I know about how animals are treated and murdered for meat but every now and then I need to see something like this to balance my mood, it's so beautiful seeing animals and their baby's run free and enjoying their little lives, if only they all had this privilege. I pray for that day
Same..i feel so depressed
Same. Just on the edge holding it down. Recently what helps me is a quote from one of those fitness vegans that went something like this “how dare we be depressed and sad when we are the chosen ones who don’t suffer”. It helps me a bit. Hope it helps you.
@@TheScazighino thanks for the reply, it helps to know that there are people that care just as much as I do.
Stay strong, stay vegan 💪
Auch für mich ist es oft so schwer auszuhalten, dass die Tiere so entsetzlich gequält und ermordet werden. Sind die Menschen denn blind? Wo ist ihre Seele, dass sie nicht sehen und fühlen, was sie tun?!? Natürlich lebe ich vegan und das eben zu sehen, hat gut getan ❤ Dennoch - all die anderen, vergessenen Tiere...
Since his speech my mom and I started drinking almond milk
Me too i started putting it in my cereals now
well you made the best decision ❤️ I went vegan 8 months before and Its the best decision I made I'm living without the guilty that I'm promoting murder of animals
Almonds are an environmental abomination. Do you know how much water is required to grow almonds?
Try Soy milk! I think it tastes better than almond milk
@@EyeXombie Soy feminizes males. Fact. Please look it up.
When I see them run free my heart breaks for all the others that will never have that joy 😔
Me too, I can't not think about the endless numbers of the others who live and die so misrebly. So heartbreaking. 😥
❤️breaking. 😪
*"How do we know the cows perspective?"* newbies to the subject may ask. Any being with a developed nervous system feels pain. We anthropomorphise and relate what we as humans would experience with the being in question.
If a cat, dog, cow, whale, human or mouse experience their murder/death, while conscious, over 60 seconds, it's obvious, from that beings perspective, they are in discomfort/agony/fear/hell/despair/helplessness/indignity for that time period - and the being would thus prefer to not be experiencing these things.
Thus, from the beings perspective, 60 seconds is too long a period to be tortured to death.
The same feeling I have
I felt the exact same. couldn‘t hold back my tears. 💔
The baby cow knows she's in good hands when Joaquin carries her 😍
To bad he thinks it is ok to slaughter a human baby thru abortion
mizzouwendy even if abortions were banned, illegal abortions would still be taking place, which would then be dangerous for mothers and unborn children. People will still try to get abortions no matter what, if it’s got to be illegal, so be it. That’s all it’s going to do is increase risk.
mizzouwendy humans are garbage anyway.
mizzouwendy not a baby but okay
It's so good to see such a respected artist like Joaquin spreading awareness on animal rights. It's good to have compassion towards those innocent beings.
Hear, hear
And people made fun of this beautiful soul for speaking his truth. I do nothing but honor his grace & the grace of organizations like this.🙏🏽✨
He is an actor. Actors are paid to say certain lines and perform certain actions in a certain way for payment. He wants more Oscars and stay relevant for his bosses. He needs his money.
Maria Rohmer never heard anything but praise for his speech. But he doesn’t need to be filmed like we see. People should be smart enough to know as honest as Phoenix is, he’d do it out of the goodness of his heart.
@@Xenonic2 Actors will do anything they are told - as long as they are paid enough. They strip, starve, drug themselves, humiliate themselves, go under the knife etc etc for their millions. The financially powerful Soy-farming lobby (their industry is worth more than 40 billion dollars in the US alone) needs to frighten enough human beings into surviving on soy kibble, in order to continue to afford their own wagyu beef dinners and champagne-and-caviar soirées. This is because, under the UN sustainable goals programme, soy growers, as suppliers of animal feed, are under threat by government regulation as major contributors to GMO foods and global deforestation. They thus fund 'The Impossible Burger' and 'Beyond Meat' to replace animal consumption of soy with human consumption of soy, in order to preserve their market shares, worldwide. They hire Joaquim and his drug-fuelled mental-disorder to do some sad, violin-backed soliloquies about cows and calves, riding on the unexpected popularity of his latest movie. Certain individuals like Maria Rohmer lap it up. Certain others get to afford caviar at the expense of the former. The real food chain - of the rich living off the gullibility of the non-rich- continues uninterrupted.

I will celebrate 9 years vegan in a few months. Have not regretted it for one minute.
9 years is amazing. I wish I had that much time.
@@jussisgrrl My husband and I: vegans since 1975 (vegetarians for many years before that). It all started with one day, then another, then another, etc. Go vegan now and you'll be vegan for the rest of your life.
That’s SO AWESOME! How do you get your protein - Soy and Beans mostly? My body “feels” like it need fish-protein occasionally. That’s what I have not gone Vegan, plus I LOVE cheese and yogurt, and figure taking milk is better than killing, though the separation of mother and cafe hurts, knowing that’s what happens when I eat my cheese or yogurt. It’s just a process for me, to get there!
I’m back to being a Vegetarian, who occasionally (few times a month), is a Pescatarian, and is Vegan 1-week our of the month (I would LOVE to make it longer).
@@scotrule6128 You don't have to worry about protein. It's another marketing ploy by the meat and dairy industry. There has never been a documented case of protein deficieny.
I recommend Mic the Vegan on YT, he has some great videos about the health aspects of a plant based diet.
Cheese and yogurt are nice, but there are plenty of vegan substitutes. And dairy cows (after a life of suffering) get killed very young once they can't produce milk anymore, so by consuming dairy products we support the killing of the innocent as much as meat eaters do.
Watch Earthlings or Dominion, you can stream them online for free. I guarantee that this will make staying vegan a lot easier :)
I used to be vegetarian and now vegan for over a year. The only regret I have about veganism is not having gone vegan earlier. If I could do it, you can too! Best of luck!
Roughly the same duration as me being a pescatarian.
The little calf is so dear. I'm glad she got to stay with her momma
I dont give a damn what anybody says, he may have played a super villain, but Joaquin Phoenix is a real life super hero!!!
That's why he got the academy award; he played someone so different from his own personality.
Not all heroes wear capes.
Joel Salatin
YES HE IS, THEIR ARE STILL REAL MEN IN OUR WORLD...THEY ARE GETTING RARE.....
Had a sick newborn calf die in the pasture adjacent to our house and the farmer buried the calf with a backhoe. The mother stood by that grave for three days and mooed. It was the most heartbreaking thing to witness and hear. When calves are separated from their mothers, the calling goes on for days. Vegan for over 30 years and I would never, ever go back.
😥
My heart aches reading this. 😭 Good for you for being vegan for so long. ♥️ I'm only vegan going on three years. I wish I had "woke up" sooner. 😓
It is very sad from your mere description. If I were to witness I would probably bawl.
I appreciate Joaquin Phoenix rewarding a slaughterhouse owner that tries to reduce suffering, even if we wish that no slaughterhouses existed. For now, slaughterhouses will exist, so any encouragement for them to reduce cruelty and suffering is a victory, even if the animals still die and even if it helps a small number of animals. It's better than nothing. That is how change usually happens. I know others may not share this opinion and demand an instant end to all meat-eating, but that's not the reality we live in.
I 100% agree❤️🌹
Agree
Exactly! He respected the Slaughter house owner instead of try to offend, disgrace and demand a shut down. He is a great example that you teach compassion by example.
They should have huge red carpet award shows for things like this.
instead they have people using the F word 3 times and the other classy idiots are cheering
My doctor once’s said why are we drinking cow’s
milk? We are not cow’s.
@Lord Jacob Rothschild Hi there young lad. I'm sorry you're not better educated on the subject. I encourage you to read the work of Dr. Neal Barnard on this.
Sorry i drink milk quite often. eat cheeses, yogurt and many other things made by cows milk.. You sir are the uneducated one.
@Lord Jacob Rothschild Cows don't ALWAYS produce milk. Just like humans, they produce it when they're pregnant, so next time you drink milk think about the fact that you stole it from the rightful owner: a newborn calf.
Lord Jacob Rothschild you should probably educate yourself before you start calling other people morons
Coral Clay Bruh moment right there. Have you ever milked a cow? Why do you lie to yourself? I remember one time when I was younger, my school and I went to a nearby farm to learn more about how they milk cows and such. I got to milk a cow, obviously a female, who wasn’t pregnant. I also milked other cows, who also weren’t pregnant. Perhaps you should go and try milk a cow for once, because you just made yourself look like an idiot. Both pregnant cows AND non-pregnant cows produce milk, fool.
I wish it could be true for every cow mother and baby calf
We will make this a reality.
Me too 🙏😔One day

@@jessec.6876 You're rather chained to your food, I see.
@@jumpander the human race is. Its natural instinct. Its also natural instinct for other humans to differentiate from each other. Either way, humans eating meat has been around since the beginning of time, changing that permanently is likely to never happen. I mean what else are we gonna do? Are we gonna force carnivores to not be carnivores? As omnivores meat will always be a drive for us. Now I'm a big fan of the wild, I got deep into the forest with a spear, and a bow and arrow and I like to hunt me some helpless animals.

60 seconds is such a long long time when you are in pain and terrified.
Outsider Songs the end result is the same! I felt like telling him, stupid man! Animals don’t wanna die just like you don’t wanna die!
@@akanne1 I think it's a good example of how good people cognitively negotiate having to do bad things. He called it harvesting, even though he knows they are not plants. He has reached a place where he has convinced himself. He feels maybe that he needs to do the work so the cows don't have to go to another slaughterhouse that DOES kill mothers and calves and where death takes longer than 60 seconds.
Its harrowing and ultimately the blame does lie with consumers and commercialism. They create the demand that a cow must be bred, raised and killed.
The man here is a strong example of cognitive dissonance in play and he would be correct that if he changed careers, not one cow's life would be saved.
I thought the same thing, but if it is the best in the industry relative to all other slaughterhouses, the practice should still be rewarded. I know how horrible the industry is, but it won't change all at once. Encouraging good behavior, and having a video spreading that message, is a practical way to reduce cruelty and suffering. Other methods are working to change regulations, enforcing existing regulations against cruelty, and punishing factories that are blatantly breaking the law. Also trying to inform people about where their food comes from and the suffering involved. It's unfortunate that change is slow but at least it is going in the right direction and speeding up due to the power of the internet. For people who still want to eat meat, I suggest they buy only meat that comes from local, organic, pasture-raised (grass-fed) animals. Anything helps. Unfortunately there is a new industry that involves shipping livestock long distances on a global scale and that is a new form of cruelty that needs to be fought in the countries that are exporting live animals.
scrubjay93 I’m sorry but I disagree. Going in the right direction is what He did with the mama and the calf. Even if it’s just PR. I don’t accept anything else than life. If it was me on that conveyor belt, I hope people would not accept my death with a consolation that at least I died quickly.
Exactly, it's not short.
This is kindness. This is the only way of real human's evolution. I hope soon all the world leave the violence in the past and move forward to this new way to see the life.
Amen
The future is vegan
I see that happening

I don’t care what your personal beliefs are or what your stance is on this matter. The reality and premise of this video is heartbreaking. Absolutely earth-shattering. Witnessing that sweet angel running and jumping happily alongside her mother. Completely oblivious to what would have transpired if Joaquin wouldn’t have been able to rescue them. Horrendous, if you ask me. Where is society’s compassion?
Alexandra Bonsor ...her*
the tragedy is most people consider themselves to be good people and against animal cruelty - yet they continue eating animal flesh and pay to torture animals in ways that are absolutely unwatchable every single day. THEY MUST AWAKEN AND STOP THIS COGNITIVE DISSONANCE - STOP EATING ANIMALS AND THEIR SECRETIONS - IT'S EASY TO STOP SUCH GHOULSH UNHEALTHY DIET PEOPLE!!!
@Dorin Tibulca completely irrelevant. Yes there are other issues in the world to debate but that argument doesn't belong here
Dorin Tibulca where in the documentary was it implied that he puts cows lives above humans lives? I don’t think that’s at all the case for most vegans. There are plenty of people speaking up for human rights/equality/women’s rights etc., but very few for animal rights. It’s actually quite heartwarming to see media coverage for animal rights finally becoming more frequent. We should celebrate anyone speaking up for ANYTHING that betters the world!
LOL how about your compassion? Are you Pro Life or Pro Abortion when it comes to human life...if you answered pro abortion...U ARE A HYPOCRIT!!
I love you Joaquin for loving animals. I’m so happy that you are using your fame telling people to turn VEGAN! Don’t ever give up, no matter what! The world needs people like you more than ever❤️
Delusional comment at its best. We won't turn vegan. I love animals but I eat meat, but that doesn't mean I am an animal killer. I need meat to survive.
He's not only great actor but he's also a great person too...
Please Joaquin tech your children to make this decision and make possible that they make the same think like you
Its 11am and im crying in the office. Hes one of the reasons Im going vegan, it doesnt feel right to eat meat anymore.
More for us, thank you for your noble cause...
Thank you for your kindness. :) Every step counts.
@@ShallowDepression Not really. The supply is based on demand. The less of us eat meat, the less animals will be bred for food; the more resources (land, water, technologies, etc.) will be re-channelled into producing/researching plants and plant-based alternatives to meat, and the more expensive meat is going to get for you (for the lack of economies of scale). Veganism means LESS meat for you, and more costlier meat for you.
Reading this as I eat a nice big medium well juicy steak
I dont understand why people are angry at me not wanting to eat meat?? Is ridiculous
The way Joaquin and Gene touched the calf, and to think what the slaughterhouse workers would have done to the same calf is unbearable to imagine.
@Tatsujiro Kurogane Why are you such a loser, tho? This is why women don't like you.
Man stood by his words...as we humans have to change a lot...
This man is a legend! we need more people like this
There's a ton of people like this. He's one of the few to film himself while doing something good for the planet.
If we all needed to bring a camera crew every time we did something good ourselves, it would cost a lot of energy and produce extra co2. Not a good idea.
What we need is less admiration and more action.
@@fl260How do you know he set up the filming process in the first place? I mean he is a celebrity after all, and cameras just naturally follow him every time he is out in the public eye anyways, so of course he is going to be filmed for doing something this eye opening.
Also, this video spreads a powerful message of encouraging kindness to animals. It's not a big deal that this was filmed, so why mention it?
@@kirbylover1009 I like Joaquin Phoenix and I like animals. He has the right to do what he does. It's all good. I don't HAVE to agree 100% with 100% of what people does, that's all.
Take care.
@@fl260 Okay, I must have took the comment the wrong way. My bad.
He follows what his heart dictates.
You should too. Consider becoming vegan today if you're not already (:
Been a vegan for 32 years and proud of it.
Different strokes of the knife for people who love anmals over those who don't value what pain and the horror of slaughter is.
So did Jack the Ripper
@@-----------k5331 Veganism is deadly.
You did not evolve to eat nothing but plant matter.
Joaquin has my heart. What a lovely human. Love Farm Sanctuary for giving them a new home. ❤️
I wish unborn human babies had the same treatment.
YEAH, the *only* actor who spoke for the animals at the Academy Awards.....
This is is about animals. Go find your own page.
@@EuSeiT If you want to protest against abortion you're free to do it, but this isn't the right spot for you man, I'm sorry.
@@EuSeiT This is about Joaquin saving cows, not abortion! Thete are tons of videos on youtube discussing abortion you can go to!!
Starting off my day by watching videos like this motivates me to continue pushing for animal rights and liberation. Thank you for everything that you do. Love from Australia.
Love from India... I do the same here... Wish you all the best...
Me too! I've been rescuing them forever..mostly dogs and cats, and any wildlife I can help if they need it, but would love to be able to do more. The poor farm animals are my favorite of all and they are so mistreated it is hard to even fathom. Please don't eat the animals people, if you knew the suffering that takes place beforehand, and the fear and terror in their eyes, you would never eat meat or dairy ever again. Do the research before stopping at McDonalds or wherever!😭
Until every cage is empty.
Australian beef is really nice.
ShallowDepression it’s important to accept and understand other people’s choices. You don’t have to leave comments like this on people’s posts, but the fact that you did tells me you have a lot of spare time on your hands. Maybe use that time to learn and understand how important it is to respect other people’s choices, and maybe do some research into the cattle industry while you’re at it!
Sick of feeling hopeless, more sanctuaries & rescuers of farm animals are desperately needed😩
Thank you for that beautiful gesture Joaquin.
Who knows, maybe he saved them to make beef burger.
Don't believe anything you see.
I highly suspect this guy is pretentious.
@@lickenhuntsman5338 oh really grow up,your sArcasm is disgusting,
I loved the reaction of one dairy farmer from Wisconsin calling Joaquin Phoenix ding dong having no idea what he is talking about and while he was talking about it, he was feeding a newborn calf from a plastic bottle taken away from her mother not even one hour she was born while the mother was mechanically milked.
Finally someone taking action against these cruel practices.
He is going to be the most incredible father in the world.
this is so, so precious. joaquin really has a beautiful soul and a true heart because the way he cares about these innocent animals is something absolutely magnificent. god bless him.
We need to change the way we treat animals, all animals.
So overdue. We must evolve.
Just become vegan. That covers most of it. Change “We” to “Me”.
We should worry more about overpopulation on earth and the wasteful society. Problem isn't eating meat.. it's the mass scale we do it for billions of wasteful people. Fuck most meat bought dosnt even get used..
Yes the problem is eating meat.
@@tsarina24honolulu87 it's that billions want meat. Nothing wrong with eating meat.
Joaquin, you have my respect as an actor and as a person, thank you for stepping up for animal cruelty, May GOD bless you.
And now there are horrible people saying that they lost respect for him, because of this.
@Dan Rush If God is really that narrow minded that he would curse a good person who doesn't believe something in him, then your God needs some serious help. Seriously, how self obsessed is your God?
@@manuelgarces7312 I wish animals got any consideration at all.
Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had
to be sacrificed. Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and make
preparations for us to eat the Passover.” (Luke 22:7-8, NIV)
Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed. And he sent Peter and John, saying "Go and prepare us the passover that we may eat"
Luke 22:7-8 KJB
I mistook his shyness for aloofness. Sorry, Joaquin.
This happens alot to Scorpios. Those born under this sign are also prone to RBF, meanwhile just deep in thought about something that is perhaps not so deep and other times maybe it is complex. A very misunderstood sign.
You must be great at judging and categorizing people quickly
@@XI_Daisy_XI Imagine believing in esoteric practices.
Could be both. Wouldn't be the end of the world.
What an excellent act of compassion. So glad that Joaquin Phoenix is using his celebrity to promote veganism and humane treatment of animals.
This! How can people be against rape or child abuse and do this? That statement and explained made me vegan
@Butterfly where were you for the video? He was literally at a slaughterhouse.
I don’t really care and enjoy eating animals. Hahahahaha!
@@DamnAdriane Veganism makes people crazy.
A majority of posters here post deranged or idiotic shit and eat meat and dairy. What’s your excuse?
Proud that a Hollywood star knows what it means to be a human being.
Meanwhile, millions of human babies are killed and nobody cares. Now, that's what you call being a human being, right?
@@EuSeiT lol guy sits in his multi million dollar home going to his day job in LA being part of a wasteful industry then lectures the common people... That's Hollywood.
@@dylan15243 wasteful..why because he had ambition as an actor...and made it. You sound jealous man.
@@EuSeiT Where are millions of babies killed exactly?
Yes because no other Hollywood star is a human being.
Oh my god... you have no idea how much this means to us - vegans, animal lovers, activists. We face animal cruelty every day. And these stories with happy endings are sometimes the only beacon of hope and a ray of sunshine in otherwise a completely dark world. Thank you, Farm Sanctuary. You have no idea how much you guys and your amazing animals help me deal with this world. And thank you, Joaquin, you're our hero.
Run to the rescue with love and peace will follow
Amen. I am crying tears of joy for this pair. And tears of anguish for the others. ❤️🌱❤️🌱❤️🌱❤️
there's nothing like a T-bone steak,frickin delicious!
The animals in factory farms are murdered. Plants are harvested. I love Joaquin Phoenix what an amazing man.
Why can't there be more humane people on this planet!
@@margaridanormandes1907is it bad to eat meat lol
@@tobsonasanya4765 yes it is very bad.
It's clear that Joaquin's love for animals is great. But look at the way he is completely respectful to the man running the slaughterhouse as well. He speaks his mind and his beliefs without tearing other people down. That hug at the end shows such a deep level of understanding. He is a truly inspiring person.
Marissa Smith Yes, that is what I love about him. Remember what he said in his Oscar interview... we shouldn’t cancel each other out. When we educate, when we guide each other, THAT is the best of humanity.

After Heath Ledger's Joker I was thinking of the poor actor whoever has to fill these shoes.
Turns out Joaquin Phoenix was able to pull off two miracles.
Heath ledger joker is soooooo overrated. I don't think people would praise that movie nearly as much if he hadn't died
Sicily Damara sure😂
Joaquin's joker was great and realistic, heaths was over-acted and cartoonish.
Sicily Damara do you even know who the joker is?
The joker is a character with an exaggerated personality and acts like a cartoonish man.
Joaquin joker changed the the joker from what he’s meant to be to a depressed man which he wasn’t in the comics and the older movies.
And not once was the joker ever supposed to be somewhat realistic.
Don't be mad man, it doesn't even matter. You have your opinion and I have mine.
I love this guy...literally one of the kindest people walking the planet. I think he's earnt his place in heaven ❤🙌
He's atheist sadly
@@gudgel5307 that what he thinks , but we all have souls and souls wind up somewhere, he is a good human , he has a spot up there

Joaquin is a beautiful man, and a true hero for the most vulnerable, and voiceless beings on Earth.
5:33 The tenderness in Joaquin’s “My Love” 6:26 Joaquin’s smile 7:07 Mommy (Liberty) and baby (Indigo) running and jumping to freedom, happy, safe 💕 Thanks to everyone who made this possible, every life counts, every creature is important
He named them after his sister Liberty and deceased nephew Indigo. 😥
ícҽís թհօҽղíx yeah, I read that 💕
It has happened to me that people get offended if you use a “human” name on a non human animal but seeing this mom an her baby I’m guessing her sister was proud of the lovely tribute as a beautiful way to remember her son / his nephew
This planet need people like Joaquin! We all should do such great things our lives. Directly or indirectly people should not contribute their hard earned money towards cruel people and their cruel business. All animals deserve better life like us.
He's actually inspiring me to go vegan. I'm slowly starting to avoid meat and milk products overall and adjusting to a vegan lifestyle eventually. Mainly for a good conscience. It just makes me feel good to eat something with the knowledge nothing had to die for it, no matter if it was a painful death or a quick, painless one. It just doesn't feel right.
Update: I went fully vegan a day after posting this comment and now I'm vegan for over a month. I regret absolutely nothing. Sometimes I do miss the taste of certain products that are difficult to replace and accomplish the same taste, but it's super easy to get over it. There is SO much food and I'm someone who eats a lot and grabs snacks all the time. Being vegan barely requires any effort to my surprise. My body is in a good place too and, to anyone who went "You'll ruin your health", I'm perfectly healthy and I feel more energized! I'm not taking any supplements either, I can replace any vitamins that are in meat with plant based products just fine. If anything, I've been watching my body more than ever. It's funny how non-vegans suddenly turn into nutrition experts to defend their eating habits, though. 🤨
TLDR: Been vegan for over a month, I'm healthy and feeling great. No regrets whatsoever.
Update: 24th December 2020: Still vegan! Feeling fantastic. Life's good, I'm still alive and not malnurished, what a surprise! Making pizza rolls for me and my non-vegan family later today. 10/10 i recommend
Plants are alive. Animals eat animals. Nature. Circle of life.
There’s research that suggests plants are sentient beings also.
@@CynicalCharmer
Yeah but it's not something that's 100% proven. I don't believe I'd feel equally as guilty eating a carrot like I would when eating a piece of cow meat. It's not a good argument lol
I've had a lily for 5 years and it has bloomed beautiful flowers every year except last year when I moved it from my kitchen to another room that had better lighting. I always talk to my plants (don't care if you think it's crazy, it's not like a conversation, it's like a HELLO BEAUTIES) So the only difference was that I spent less time in that room, and didn't "talk" to the plant much. Didn't bloom, started to wilt a bit despite having good light and water. I figured maybe it's life cycle was just coming to and end. I moved it back to the kitchen, greet it every morning with my other kitchen plants... and this year, and it started growing earlier than ever and it's already beginning to bloom and it's not even spring. I swear plants have feelings. Just saying. They're alive too.
You are going to ruin your health.
You harvest PLANTS, ...You don't 'harvest' sentient beings.
PS: I was so glad to see Shaun Monson's credit here as the photographer, he made EARTHLINGS with Joaquin as well. If you haven't seen it,
...NOW IS THE TIME.
Aren't plants living beings aswell?
Thank you I have lived for 70 years being a vegan. But I am not very brave but I do try to stand ùp for what I believe in but in an un acetic world it is hard x

Seeing the mother cow move through the barn and onto the field with her calf running up that little hill moved me to tears. The joy of being free, of being able to move and to be with the child she bore and to be able to raise her with her own milk was unbelievably beautiful. Joaquin Phoenix is an inspiration. It's been almost a week since I stopped eating animal flesh and fluids, and I feel like I'm finally living according to my moral values.
Lady gaga, rihanna, and many rappers should watch this, so they can respect to all animals

I went vegan 3 years ago (reaching for 4) because of Earthlings documentary, Joaquin, you've done so much good for the animals, thank you blessed man.
I am a senior citizen. Watching EARTHLINGS, narrated by Joaquin, inspired me. The disappearance of my arthritis, lifelong allergies and heart arrhythmia convinced me. The health maladies and consequent funerals of my friends, one in Nov (heart attack) and another this week (Cancer), motivate me. It's never too soon to change but sometimes it may be too late. Peace💚
I love Phoenix for many reasons his love for animals is one of them
One of my favorite actors and people. He really walks his talk.
Robin Grant no sir...he walks the line
This guy is such an inspiration! God bless him million times
His speech makes me cry every single time
Sums it up doesn’t it, the sadness of the whole business. Thank you for rescuing them.
It's like me going to Australia and pouring a cup of water on the fire and people praising me like I'm a hero lol....
It's the message not the actual effect right??? Hahaba
Dylan Watts what you wanted me to state the obvious. That it’s wrong to eat dairy, which I don’t, how bout you? That dairy is unnecessary for humans and causes unimaginable suffering, which it does. So I say again, the video sums up how sad the whole dairy business is and I’m thankful for him rescuing them. Hope that helps you understand. I see you’ve been trolling on here so I won’t be answering any more inane comments.
@@lynby2108 it's not trolling it's being a normal human. I realize overpopulation is the problem not eating meat. I think you are clueless as to how many things you eat contain milk, cheese, cream, eggs.
Again you morons fight for a cow when the real problem is that billions of wasteful fucks are destroying this planet. Going vegan isn't saving shit as much as possible you like to believe it will. Lol praise Joaquin for this one move more than you care about people that dedicate their lives to this with no recognition. Hollywood has you brainwashed lol
Love Joaquin Phoenix, he is such a nice man. I have tears in my eyes literally.
I wish I could rescue all of these beautiful beings 😢💔
You can do a lot in which you enlighten your fellows and live vegan
@arun rao never did
Why don't we propose to stop over populating earth?? Ya know... The thing that got us to kill animals at a mass scale... And bunch of other problems lol.
He’s such a good human ! Using his platform and helping where he can ! Mad respect ✌️
I cried. Why can’t we all be like this? Why must we choose to sacrifice a life for 10 minutes of oral satisfaction? For us is just a few minutes that we’ll soon forget. For them, it’s their life.
I agree...and murdering human babies, too!!!
Are you talking about felatio?
So is the fate of prey.
Kraut Werk No I don’t
THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!
I heard his award show speech and I felt what he was saying. He made absolutely good and valid points. The media portrays him as this unusual earthling who's believes and opinions are influenced by mind-alternating substances or mental issues. Clearly, as you can see the dude really does have a great big heart.
The moment he accepted the award then started taking about his issues and concerns, i thought it was brilliant and genuine. I'm glad he was given a voice because he spoke his true values at the perfect time. Seeing is believing but I didn't need to see what he was talking about. As a deep thinker, I too thought the same thing. Overall, in my eyes he's a very talented actor and inspirational human being with a loving soul.
Respect Joaquin Phoenix and congratulations on your win.

How is it ballsy to say “murdered”
In Treblinka they used euphonyms such as "putting the children into sleep" when talking about gassing the victims. And they called the way that lead to the gas chambers what translates to "heaven street".
(story from someone who survived)
Similar thing when farmes use words such as "humane slaughter" or "harvesting", instead of what the action really is.
Only the victim is different.
@Lau taro That doesn't explain how this was ballsy.
