Mission: Share ‘Dissection in Reverse’ on Social Media
Picture this: A fetal pig is pulled from their mother’s uterus. Later, their limp, dead body lies on a table in a science classroom. A student wearing gloves has cut into the corpse, exposing the pig’s intestines. 😨 The student feels a moment of remorse, wondering where this little pig came from, so they ask their teacher, only to be told that the pig is “already dead” and that they must complete the project or get a failing grade. 😟
Watch “Dissection in Reverse” to see where the pig actually came from:
Gut-wrenching, right? In real life, time only moves forward. But seeing the dissection process in reverse is a powerful reminder that all animals who end up on dissection trays had their lives stolen from them. They may have had their own interests and families, or they may have never had the chance to take their first breath—but none wanted to be killed so that students could carve up their bodies.
Plus, the vid causes a whirlwind of emotions. It shows us that without the demand for animal dissection, individuals like pigs, frogs, sharks, mice, and rats would still be alive with their loved ones. Then to see it all come crashing back down when the vid shows the dissection process in forward-moving time, it’s a hard pill to swallow. 😢 But that’s the point.
And when you share the one-of-a-kind vid on social media, you’ll be cementing yourself as the CEO of captivating content and waking others up to the cruelty of animal dissection—plus earning 25 peta2 points in our Rewards Program. 😏 If you wanna start redeeming points for free merch, start by sharing this vid.
Why Share It?
We need to get others to see how heartbreaking killing animals for dissection is. Every year, over 10 million animals are dissected in classrooms. 😰 Think about that—10 million beings who once had thoughts, feelings, and relationships are cut apart in schools. Every. Single. Year.
This isn’t just cruel—it’s also pointless. We have many compassionate teaching methods to choose from, and they’re usually more cost-effective and educational than animal dissection. And here’s the thing: School officials will be way more likely to go with non-animal options if there’s a huge, united group of students demanding this change. 💪 So what better way to build a base of animal advocates than by leaving your fellow students shook with a hard-hitting video?
