“[...]as tradições especistas resultam em uma gigantesca quantidade de sofrimento e de mortes, muitíssimo maior do que em todas as tradições que já vitimaram humanos em conjunto.”
Luciano Carlos Cunha, Uma breve introdução à ética animal: desde as questões clássicas até o que vem sendo discutido atualmente

Lisa Kemmerer
“Animals who are exploited for “organic” foods are raised, maintained, transported, and slaughtered just like their nonorganic” counterparts: They are debeaked, dehorned, detoed, castrated, and/or branded, and they are kept, transported, and slaughtered in the same deplorable conditions.”
Lisa Kemmerer, Speaking Up for Animals: An Anthology of Women's Voices
