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.

Oh, but this one is inaccurate. But I understand it would look confusing if only small unrecognisable pieces of human flesh would have been depicted there...

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.

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)?

actually, deer are at a risk of overpopulation, so some people( not all) hunt deer to keep their numbers at a healthy level, although this is not the majority

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.
