After a crazy busy time I finally have the time to concentrate on writing
stories. As of today I will blog on a regular basis again. I have so much to share;
there is so much in my head that needs to get out LOL.
TYKE
Today I’ll share a very sad story with all who read my blog! I share
this with you, because I think the world should know what Tyke went through and
why she did what she did! When an animals as big as Tyke screams for mercy and
even goes down to avoid being hit, then we humans have to ask ourselves what in
the hell is wrong and why do we let this happen?
You can help in a very simple way:
1. Don’t ever go to a circus if they have wild animals like tigers and
elephants, because they are forced to perform.
2. sign as much petitions as you possibly can (see PETA)
Tyke (1974 – 1994) was an African elephant who couldn’t take her abuse
any longer. After a life of only knowing abuse she went on a rampage to escape
her torturers, her abusers. She killed her trainer in the attempt to escape. It
showed after his autopsy that Tyke’s trainer, a scumbag named Allen Campbell had
alcohol and cocaine in his system at the time of his death. Imagine, Tyke, left
in the hands of a monster like that, also he already had a bad reputation of
abusing animals.
Alcohol and drugs make these monsters even more aggressive than they
already are. Did anyone talk about that? About a monster that took abuse to a
whole new level and in the process drove this sweet, gentle giant, insane! No
when an animal (mostly elephants) are going on a rampage it’s always like- OMG the
animal has gone crazy – the animal is dangerous and so on. NO it’s not the
animal that’s dangerous; it’s the monster that abuses the animal in ways most
of you don’t even want to think of, because it’s just too horrible.
It took a long time and 86 bullets to finally kill Tyke, and for what? Yes,
that’s right, because she had enough of the abuse, had enough of the times that
she screamed for mercy, had enough of the times that she was so scared that she
even went down in hopes the beatings would stop.
People, this is why I am dead set against the circus. Wild animals don’t
voluntarily do tricks. Wild animals only
perform under the most horrific circumstances. Wild animals only perform when
they are beaten into submission. Most animal trainers are a frustrated bunch, and
they take it out on innocent animals that can’t fight back. Yes, it’s an act of
cowardice and only monsters are capable of doing so!
An animal can only take so much before it goes insane, either from fear
or because some monster simply drove her insane. Why? You ask? Well because
they can. Mostly they simply are cowards, who are scared of real men. So they
take it out on an innocent animal!
Stories, like this make me sick, they make my stomach turn and not in a
good way!
Look at this footage, yes all the way, to the end. In the end you see
Tyke dying and her eyes tell you that she doesn’t understand why people hate
her so much that they drove her to insanity by abusing her every single day!
So please, please stay away from any circus that has wild animals
perform, because only severe abuse can make them perform. They really don’t
perform voluntarily, they really don’t!
There isn’t one single circus that treats their animal’s right. How do I
know this? The answer is very simple. Animals don’t belong in a circus doing
handstands just for our entertainment. Animals belong in the wild were they can
be themselves. Where there is no abuse from monsters like Allen Campbell.
If you push me, I’ll push back, if an animal pushes back, it gets
killed! The next time you see or read about an animal that goes rampant, think
of Tyke, and know why shit like this happens. It’s not the animals that are monsters;
it’s us humans that are the monsters!
Agreed. I will never and have never gone to see animals perform. When my class went to Marineland in 2nd grade I had just watched a documentary on how they trained wild elephants. I decided not to go. My teachers thought my mother was behind it, but no, I truly thought, and still do, that making animals perform for human pleasure is truly evil.
ReplyDeleteI cried when i saw the footage of Tyke, dying in the streets of Honolulu. She must be so confused and scared out of her mind. Some people are just monsters.
DeleteHeartbreaking.
DeleteI will never understand people who love to torture innocent animals who can fight back! Maybe that's why only cowards torture and kill innocent animals.It's so very sad. Yes Jamie, heartbreaking indeed! :(
