Julie Tishkoff is an animal rights activist who has a fair share of concerns for the well-being and preservation of many endangered species around the world. She is not afraid to speak her views, whether they are expressed in an engaging conversation with other local activists or just with a friendly stranger over a cup of coffee. Below is a list of the issues that she finds most concerning to animal rights.
Animal Mistreatment
Julie Tishkoff believes that the mistreatment of animals perpetuates the idea that animals are lesser than us and solely here for our entertainment. For example, the misuse and abuse of animals in the circus has been a subject in the media as of late; and it is something that Julie is glad to see being exposed to the general public. She feels that without any awareness, this problem could easily continue.
Unlawful Poaching
The illegal poaching of animals is also an issue that has been getting lots of attention in the media, with photos of high-profile individuals standing next to illegal game have been appearing on the internet at an increasing rate.
Animal Neglect
Even pet owners, at times, can be guilty of crimes of humanity towards our furry friends. Animal shelters are full of cats, dogs and other pets that have been deprived of basic resources, such as food and shelter, by their owners. Julie Tishkoff works in local animal shelters to help give these animals the love and resources they need and deserve.
