Tokio Hotel has no reservations about speaking out against animal abuse in circuses. Just check out PETA Germany's edgy new "Stop Circus Cruelty" ad featuring Bill and Tom Kaulitz, the talented vegetarian twins behind this überpopular German rock band:
Ah, what wunderbar boys! That's German for "wonderful." Now here's the part where you can do something wunderbar for elephants who are beaten with metal-tipped bullhooks and tigers who are forced to tremble before trainers with whips. Please watch and share our undercover Ringling investigation and then take action to help ailing elephants. Written by Amy Skylark Elizabeth
Re: Frost. Thank you for your comment. We agree that diet is a matter of choice and that people must choose for themselves whether or not to eat animals. We at PETA are not interested in depriving people of the freedom to choose. We simply want to help them make educated choices. Humans do not need to eat animal flesh. In fact, we’re healthier if we don’t. And since we have so many choices as consumers these days, there’s simply no excuse for continuing to raise and slaughter animals for food. While some farmers try to treat their animals well and manage to avoid some of the abuses that, sadly, are standard throughout the industry, they are still a very small minority. To learn about the far more common treatment of billions of animals, please watch “Glass Walls”: www.peta.org/.../86975251001.aspx. - PETA
Re:PETA. I disagree with your statement saying how animals used for food suffer pain during their short lives. I can't speak for everyone, but I live in a farming country, and I must say the animals look very happy and content. They are not being tortured in any way, rather they are having their every need satisfied, with farmers providing satisfactory living conditions, often providing vaccinations to prevent diseases and shelter during harsh weather conditions. As many have said, humans are omnivores and it is not cruel to eat meat, unless you are calling all carnivorous animals cruel. I rspect all vegetarians and vegans, please show the same respect for those who choose to eat meat.
POSTER PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
Wow, yet another thing the kaulitz twins and I have in common; the hatred of circuses. I didn't like the way they treated animals when I was eight, and I still don't like it, and I'm so glad that my idols feel the same way!
Great band and great guys!! Others should floow their example of compassion for other living beings. Is htere still circuses using(and abusing) animals on the so-called civilized world? I live in a developing country and the use of animals in circuses has already being banned!!
I have warned people very often on twitter to avoid circuses and have always told people to stay away from them. Huge fan of Tokio Hotel and it is very special to me they did this. I also would like for you to sell the poster.
I love them and i cant stand circus or zoos they are terriable! People shouldnt go to them!
