Listen To Your Heart, Not Your Habits!

On our billboards, we have invited citizens to abandon backward custom of home pig slaughtering. Brutal killing of sensitive beings with no reason whatsoever is not an opportunity for celebration, but a barbaric custom which should be abandoned. We published a short video about comparisons between dogs and pigs as a part of the campaign.

Razor-Wire on the Animal Rights Day

We marked the International Animal Rights Day with a performance on the main square in Zagreb. Chained activists exhibited a roll of razor-wire, accentuating the hurting and killing of animals.
