"If they had to kill the animal they eat, they probably wouldn't do it": Lisbon was the stage for a march for the rights of "all animals"

SIC Notícias5 September 2026 at 19:33

Lisbon was the stage for a march for the rights of all animals, organized by an entity that defends that all animals are worthy of rights and are sentient. The march sought to draw attention to the animal cause and appeal for a change in society's perception regarding the treatment of animals.

The organization that promoted the event underlined that it is necessary to change the way people see animals, defending that many humans would probably not be capable of killing the animals they consume as food, if they had to do it themselves.

The event aimed to raise public awareness for the animal cause, highlighting the importance of recognizing animals as sentient beings deserving of respect and protection, in an attempt to promote greater consciousness about issues related to animal welfare.
