A new Newsweek story highlights a case every veterinarian recognizes: an injured kitten, clear medical need—met with financial barriers, policy obstacles, and a system that defaults to euthanasia instead of care.

In vet school, Dr. Moni Ramirez began rescuing stray dogs and cats, but quickly realized the shelters were forced to euthanize animals simply for lack of space. 💔

That’s when she dedicated her life to spay and neuter work, performing up to 40 surgeries a day.

In veterinary school, Dr. Moni Ramirez witnessed a cow so sick she could barely stand. Yet instead of being treated or euthanized, she was inseminated and kept in production.

📍 It takes courage to speak up when your profession tells you to stay quiet.

Years later in veterinary school, Dr. Ramirez found herself in a system that treated animals as commodities instead of individuals. 🐄💔

But Dr. Ramirez won’t accept this treatment of animals. This moment shaped her path as a vet who speaks up for animals, not over them.

“No one wants to see a wolf run over with a snowmobile. It’s not manly. It’s not cool.”

Even hunters and ranchers know blatant brutality makes them look bad. It’s time to hold our systems to a higher standard.

Dr. Monica Ramirez recalls being forced to gas rats with ether in veterinary school — an AVMA-accredited program.🎓🐀

If this is what training looks like, how can we expect a courageous profession to emerge from it?

Gelatin = boiled bones.
Honey = bee regurgitation.

As Dr. Rebecca Niemiec explains, our values are shifting—people increasingly recognize animals as sentient beings with their own interests and right to wellbeing. Are people taking the next step to extend that moral circle to all animals?

Just beyond Miami Seaquarium’s tanks lies the real ocean—so close the captive dolphins can hear it. As this facility closes, we face a question: can “sanctuary” exist within a system that profits from captivity?

🚨 “Guacamole butt” is a sign of sickness.

At the San Bernardino Sheriff’s Rodeo, we documented bulls with diarrhea and calves with hairless crusty lesions similar to ringworm.

When will the San Bernardino Sheriff’s Department stop glorifying what not to do with animals?

On National Egg Day, veterinarians can and should speak out—against VSD+, for less cruel methods like nitrogen gas or high expansion nitrogen foam, and support animal-free methods of food production.

After years of neglect and public outcry, Miami Seaquarium will close on Oct. 12th. This closure marks a small victory in a much larger fight for justice — but the animals deserve more than a quiet exit.

Now, the question remains: Where will the animals go? Their future must not repeat their past.

Dr. Crystal Heath of Our Honor calls out the ongoing use of “terminal labs” in veterinary education—where animals are killed for training—even though more humane, animal-free alternatives already exist.

Do you think it’s time for schools to adopt protocols that respect life & prioritize compassion?

Dr. Questen shares how she refused to perform terminal lab surgeries in vet school — instead rescuing her rat and giving them a loving home.
