The demand for the closure of zoos, the release of animals in captivity and the end of shows with marine species are some of the causes that in the last ten years have managed to gather close to 15 million supporters in Argentina in signature collection campaigns. , the Change.org organization reported today in the framework of Animal Day.
So far in 2023 alone, 470,000 people have signed petitions related to animal rights, which “demonstrates the enormous impact and sensitivity that this type of claim generates among Argentines,” said Leandro Asensos, director of Change. org in Argentina and the Southern Cone.
Among the causes promoted by groups of people, individuals or organizations, claims to protect animals are one of the “issues that generate the most movement of signatures,” the organization said.
On Change.org, the causes that gathered the largest number of signatures are “Close the Córdoba zoo”, “Argentina: For the end of animal testing for cosmetic products” and “Forbidden to Sell Animals”.
Currently there are campaigns such as the “Sentient Law” promoted by the actress Liz Solari so that animals are considered sentient beings, “Stop Aquariums”, “NoMasTas” once morest the traction of animals with blood and “Free Toti”, a request by a chimpanzee that is in captivity.
