Sowing Seeds of Compassion - by Joanne Stepaniak
"There is a degree of irony in selectively applying compassion. It is as if there were truth
to the slogan George Orwell's characters in Animal Farm came to believe, 'All animals are created
equal, but some are more equal than others.' One example of this paradox is consumers who
intentionally purchase "dolphin-free" tuna (i.e. tuna fishes that were caught and killed
without injuring dolphins in the process). Their concern is solely for the dolphins (apparently
because they are mammals, like us) with no regard for the dead tunas."
