Why do you think so many are happening right now? There was the huge one out in Washington state last month, then the ones in Missouri, Tenn & NC |
I am also so hopeful after seeing many recent busts, but also so sad to see, once again, the conditions of these poor babies. It really, really weighs on me and I feel quite helpless...or that we're just not doing enough, fast enough.
As to your second part, I think awareness is climbing - and certainly the Oprah Shows have helped this endeavor, imo. Animal welfare agencies play a huge part in awareness as well and I think they've seen more support in anti-cruelty efforts. I hope this momentum continues.
