53 Shocking Illustrations Reveal How Animals Feel By Switching Them With Humans
With us, humans, consuming so much of farm animal production, such as meat, dairy, eggs and so on, nobody really wants to think about the conditions these animals live in. Animals kept in these farms, are often just a hair away from animal cruelty cases, with their living conditions being the bare minimum requirements to keep them alive. It's the same for some companion animals, where they are purchased purely for human entertainment, or wild animals shot for sport.
Now, imagine a parallel universe where domestic animals were the dominant species, and they treated us like the human race treats them. Pretty scary thought right? Well, that's the theme of this shocking series of illustrations that are designed to get you the issue of animal abuse on the spotlight.
Compiled by Bored Panda, the list features many animal rights scenarios we can probably relate to. The only difference is, the humans and animals have been reversed. Some of the illustrations are pretty gruesome, so you have been warned, but hopefully, they'll help you to look at the subject from an entirely different perspective.

A vile barbaric practice that must be done away with. Torture is not entertainment or cultural tradition
It's quite a soft illustration when you know that in fact foxes and other fur animals are skinned alive because only their skin/fur is interesting and it takes less time to do it while they are conscious than killing them first (not that it would be more acceptable if they were killed first).
One of the worst thing ever elaborated. And on the other hand the same people doing that regularly to animals will get all offended when they read an article about someone who boiled a kid.
I have birds that are out all day, only use the cage at night or when we go out.
Not good luck if you lose the foot though.. Sam: (supernatural) 'I lost my shoe..'
This is why I refuse to buy anything tested on animals, if it's not listed on the label, I won't purchase. Period.
You shouldnt be using any drugs too than. Every drug takes animal tests and later clinical trials on human.

This is the one which speaks to the worst abuses. The deliberate torture and maiming of gentle creatures.
Until the day humans happily volunteer to sacrifice their health and lives for research, we are always going to need animal models. Animal testing is a necessary evil if we want safe and effective drugs. Also, this drawing is super misleading. Reputable labs treat their animal models humanely and no reputable scientist actually enjoys experimenting on animals.
Animal testing is a necessary evil. Would you rather test on humans? Okay poor sick kid try this out it might give you cancer but oh well!
They could test it on pedophiles. Just a thought 🤷♀️🤔

He isn't drilling into the human's rear end, he is injecting a shot into his bum since that is how lab animals are treated when being tested on.
Load More Replies... as the ones before are done for human entertainment or fashion, experiments on animals are required and are irreplacable by any other experimental model to predict how drugs or anything people use will work. People want everything - no side effects, allergies, product should work and it shouldnt be tested on animals...decide people.
:( I remember the story of the killed baby dolphin because of selfies..
I think it would be more accurate for the shark holding the rod to be a worm
Ah, finaly a realistic one on how fur is really taken from animals. It just misses the sound to make it like those videos you can find on youtube, once you heard it you can't forget it unless you're one of those humans from the degenerate branch of evolution of course.
Circus involving animals is a barbarian show. How can someone take his/her loved ones to see this kind of show and feels happy and proud of it?
Dairy Industry - the truth. Humans force cow to be pregnant and then take away the child from her! (Veal Farms!) so humans can drink cows milk which supposed to be for her child. Then after mothers milk is finished they will repeat it all over again..and after a few years of this exploitation and abuse they will slaughter Her. Imagine shop shelf where on one side is veal (cows child) and beside in milk section is the milk of the mother for this child. Dairy Industry - Pure Evil. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fn1GmYHpjiw
I rather feel sorry for the underpaid waiter having to deal with sometimes ingrateful complaints, than for the fly that accidentally flew into the hot soup. What are you suggesting with this one anyway? Installing nets on your kitchen windows? Or is it "eating the insect out of respect" (as bizzare as it sounds)?
There used to be human zoo's, up until recent history. Ironically, Adolph Hitler was the first to abolish them in Europe.
It lacks blood and infected wounds and feces everywhere with one or two cadavers rotting in it to be realistic.
A kid in my class was doing this and I lectured him for like 10 min. and guess who got in trouble? ME!
trees aren't animals.... Plus, we kill them right away. We dont just sit and watch the tree die and laugh maniacally. (not saying the tree is...) also (most trees) dont have blood. AND technically, they dont have a spouse or child either. (unless you count the saplings as tree children.) Sorry if you really liked this one. I am just stating the facts of my opinions.
I'm sorry. I should have Google the word. But Google shows Kanada, Canada and Canadá. Now I'm not sure. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanada

I already said this somewhere else in here but I'm going to repeat it again...someone should make one of dogs forcing humans to fight
Please think about how these images make sense and consider reducing YOUR impact. Maybe cut out dairy or reduce your meat consumption. You can make a difference.
These images show the reality of how cruel we are to "lesser animals." Most of us choose to ignore the suffering that goes along with exploiting animals for meat, fur, milk, etc. Humans SHOULD be required to hold these images in their heads if they're going to exploit other sentient beings for their own selfish uses.
Great pics but bad title. Humans are animals too. This kind of separation thinking is part of the problem. Last I checked, we were in Kingdom Animalia
Breaks my heart. If only we would behave like the caretakers of the earth that we are supposed to be.
I wanna thank to this post. Why don't we use realistic fake fur or Foie gras....? Isn't it possible? I don't eat or wear these at all...
Wow. I liked almost all of these.. It's sure a harsh reality out there. These pictures are brilliant though.
This is exactly what people like poachers and trophy hunters need to realise that it is cruel to treat animald the way they do
This is absolutely brilliant! People should be forced to see the reality. Parents especially should stop lying to their kids about where there food comes from.
Someone should draw the alternate universe version of humans putting chickens with knives on their feet in a ring to "enjoy" c**k fighting.
Makes you realise how "dominion over the animals" has been misinterpreted.
Just look at those parallel universes. Those pictures make me want to reach for the Brain Bleach (http://www.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BrainBleach)! I have also seen "Parallel Universe" pictures where people are switched with animals and/or plants.
Overall a good post. But my main beef (pun intended) is with #27, the one with the bear sitting at the bar with a couple of old frontier woodsmen wearing coonskin and skunk tail hats, while he's wearing a severed human butt in his head. The cartoon itself is funny as hell, but for a damn good reason. It's an old "The Far Side" comic from the mid-late 80's. Why is Gary Larson not given proper credit?! I doubt that he's suffering financially, but intellectual property rights need to be respected. '''Twas his shining mind that dug up this nugget 'o gold.....
I mean yeah a few of these are sad, but the food product ones don't get to me. They died for our survival. Thats why the food chain exists. We're on the top, and everything else is on the bottom.
My brother and I did a whole book on this: http://animalcrackersbook.wixsite.com/animal-crackers
I don't think death is cruel but I do think pain is cruel and no sentient being should ever be hurt on purpose. I don't really get veganism for that he purpose of saving animals from death because a good portion of animals themselves eat animals so why shouldn't we? I mean it's not pleasant or nice but apparently this is the way it is. I wish we could all be herbivores but we're not. I know we can survive without eating animal products but they would still be eaten just not by us. I don't like the fact that animals are basically tortured for a long time before they are killed. So I only eat from a few brands of meat that come from local farms that have the highest welfare and that I have researched extensively. I eat only eggs from my neighbour's chickens who live are very happy lifestyle. The eggs haven't been fertilized by a rooster so they coulsnt have become babies. The only thing I don't do is drink milk because there is no avoiding the cruelty in the milk industry unfortunately.
Kinda funny but kinda morbid at the same time. I bet this will make a bunch of people want to become vegan.
I actually loved the pictures, I hope more people see them, maybe it would help some people to change
Very good illustrations. Today, people are so programmed minds that they need a strong stimulus to awaken.
And yet people call me a hippie when I tell them there is no religious motive behind me not eating pork
I may be the only one that doesn't love it... Because you know...your dods and cats eat other animals too, and you buy them that food!!
Yeah, so you have to keep eating bacon and nuggets because cat food...

Where's the one where humans are trapped and/or poisoned in produce and grain farms, instead of squirrels, chipmunks, mice and rats ? The one where humans are being displaced and slowly poisoned for oil that is eventually made into plastic wrap for products, including tofu burgers ?
Support the Animal Liberation Front !! The animal you save may be yourself !!!
Still eating meat. It didn't bother me because I was laughing, laughing & laughing. Is good to have a sense of good humor. Thanks!
To my mind a lot of these are obsolete. I can understand the invasive testing, hunting endangered species, battery farming, etc, but a lot of these depict situations in which the animals are killed humanely, or at least quickly, and simply is the gory aftermath of dealing with the body, have laws against them, or just flawed understanding of physics (i.e. the horse and cart is no different to those rickshaw cart taxis).
Those vegans will do anything to exploit animals for their agenda to end cruelty and suffering! images-572...e4797f.jpg
