We're not perfect. None of us could be in this almost entirely non-vegan world. We're just doing the very best we can for the beautiful, clever, loving animals who most think of as commodities, & shamefully exploit, torture & kill 💔

Jane Goodall passed away at the age of 91. I saw a recent interview where she explained that she's thinking of death & the nicer reality where she might go. She became #vegan in 2015.
This video of a chimpanzee hugging #JaneGoodall as she is being freed, says it all.
