There are a lot of beautiful and happy animals enjoying their best lives at Leilani Sanctuary in Maui. Rescued from various situations of abuse or neglect, all these intelligent and loving creatures are safe in the knowledge that they are going to be loved and cherished for what they are. The dedicated staff and team of volunteers at Leilani Sanctuary are advocates of vegetarian or vegan lifestyles... and really, where do you draw a line between which animals you love as pets and which one you raise for meat. Every animal at the farm, from turkeys and chickens to Dorothy the cow or Bernie the pig are thriving on love and care they receive, responding to love in the most gentle and trusting ways. I am seriously reconsidering my diet after drawing their faces, looking into the eyes. There is just no humane way of raising animals for food... they are creatures that are capable of pure love and joy if we let them live for themselves.
