It's easy to forget that farmed animals are individuals. If we ever see them at all, we see them as herds whose members seem mindless and undifferentiated.

Yet each animal is an individual who brings to the world the mystery of a mind, a heart, a language, a memory, a unique personality, a biography.

Because we rarely see farmed animals in our daily lives, we seem unable to truly see them even when we come face to face with them. We can barely distinguish one goat from another, one cow from her sister, one pig from his friend. Read the stories above and take a closer look...

Words are failing me, Sherman. There is no way to express how much we loved you. Your heart and soul were even bigger than your head! You were our hero and our inspiration for veganism. You were also the reason many a barn was only half cleaned, as the urge to touch you was overwhelming and too powerful to stop.

You are an icon for those who knew you and will be a catalyst for change until the end of time.

With all of our love,

Gabe and Amanda
