Ban Fake “Rescue” Videos That Endanger Animals for Profit

Target: Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook

Goal: Ban staged rescue videos that deliberately put animals in danger.

Millions of animal supporters have been deceived into watching staged videos of animal cruelty. Worse yet, these sick videos are being disguised as animal rescue endeavors. With YouTube banning this disgusting practice, Facebook has become ground zero for these acts of cruelty.

Major animal advocate organization Lady Freethinker launched an investigation into this horrifying trend at several social media sites. Specifically, sick individuals have apparently placed puppies, kittens, and other animals in dangerous and potentially deadly situations, all for the express purpose of “rescuing” these innocents and gaining some twisted form of fame. In one video, for instance, a young dog was allegedly placed within easy range of a venomous snake. On Facebook alone, such content has garnered millions of views and shares.

Sign the petition below to demand this media giant ramp up its oversight and punishment of deliberate animal cruelty posing under the guise of animal welfare.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Mr. Zuckerberg,

Animal cruelty has found a new outlet for widespread distribution on Facebook. Social media platforms have experienced an alarming rise in posed, so-called animal rescue videos. The true origins and motivations behind these seemingly feel-good stories are often more menacing, however. Instead of being “rescued” by good Samaritans from dangerous circumstances, hundreds of animals are instead deliberately put in danger and exploited so that their abusers turned “rescuers” can get noticed.

Millions of Facebook’s faithful users who love animals and advocate passionately for them are unknowingly watching animal cruelty unfold before their eyes…all with Facebook’s apparent permission. Are view counts now worth the cost of an innocent’s life? Other outlets have taken decisive steps to end this sick trend, including launching investigations, working to change algorithms, and affirmatively banning this insidious content.

Please take similar action to cleanse Facebook of all animal cruelty.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

    Not only should Facebook BAN this content, they should also be required to REPORT POSTERS TO LOCAL AUTHORITIES for this behavior. Those responsible MUST BE PROSECUTED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW FOR EGREGIOUS ANIMAL ABUSE AND CRUELTY.

  5. Facebook has recently become disgraceful and needs to be shut down. They condone animal abuse and act in a major negative manner towards animal rights supporters and their comments.

  6. I don’t want to see these videos on Facebook or anywhere. One came across my news feed and it made me literally sick.

  7. J Martin says:

    If someone is setting up a situation that puts an animal at risk so some POS can get viewers. Then THAT person needs to get their face kicked in .. then toss what’s left in jail. WHERE THEY BELONG!!!!!

  8. Makes me want to murder the people who do this. Facebook, please step up your oversight, if you don’t, you are also responsible for this type animal cruelty….allowing these horrible individuals to use your platform.

    Dear Mr Zuckerberg, We the people and animal lovers around the Nation & world, think you are a flaming asshole, a twat waffle & a stain on societies underwear!
    Get your shit together & Stop this disgusting practice Now!

  10. How pathetic that some individuals require accolades for cowardly fake rescues. I guess their mommy didn’t give them enough praise for any good deed…
    Sadder still for the innocent creatures placed in jeopardy! Mark Zuckerman be a REAL MAN, put an immediate stop to this nightmare!!!!

  11. I wish those POS get caught by authorities and save those poor animals wherever they are…

    They have no problem banning Trum p (and I do not like Trump). But have no problem allowing stuff that hasn’t been verified or democrats agenda.

  13. Joyce O'Malley says:

    FACEBOOK – YOU TUBE – INSTAGRAM – TIC TOC – ALL DO THIS!!!
    PACT ACT
    PROSECUTE
    FINE
    PRISON TIME
    TAKE AWAY LICENSES!!!

  14. Do the right thing. This is wrong. Please don’t allow it.

  15. Mark Suckaturd should have been flushed down a toilet years ago before he became too big of a pile to fit. I think he just does this because of jealousy of the goofy way he looks. He wants to be remembered for something other than looking like a dork. If he would stop acting like a dumba**, & back something worth while, that might work.

  17. Internet WAS a good thing for the humanoid race but now everything is a shit so pls do not ask ourselves why kids kill their own parents and many other bull shit around us… I do not have anything and i am glad about it because i find it ridiculous!!!! And yes of course all that fucking stuff about abusing those poor animals brings to emulating so what else????? If it was for me mr fb would be just a simple worker like many other around this poor world!!!!

  18. Agree all comments

  19. FACEBOOK SHOWS STAGED RESCUES THAT ENDANGER THE ANIMALS’ LIVES….BUT AT THE SAME TIME PUTS COVER SCREENS ON VIDEOS SHOWING HORRIFIC ANIMAL ABUSE IN THE ANIMAL AGRICULTURE! COVER SCREENS PREVENT PEOPLE FROM SEEING THE HORRORS OF THE SLAUGHTERHOUSES BECAUSE COVER SCREENS DON’T ALLOW PEOPLE TO SEE THE DEHUMANIZATION BEHIND THEIR FOOD PURCHASES!!!!
    HOWEVER, STAGED RESCUES ARE ALLOWED…NO COVER SCREENS ARE USED!!! SHAME ON YOU FACEBOOK AND YOUR HYPOCRISY, GREED, MORAL PARANOIA AND VILENESS!!!!
    BAN BOTH FAKE RESCUES AND COVER SCREENS!!!!!!

  20. ATTENTION MARK FUCKERBERG, YOUR UNETHICAL/UNPROFESSIONAL/IMMORAL FINANCIAL GLUTTONY HAS ALREADY ELEVATED YOU TO A BILLIONAIRE STATUS, BUT NOW YOU ARE EXERCISING YOUR GREED TO PROMOTING ANIMAL ABUSE?!?! SOMEONE NEEDS TO TORTURE YOU THE SAME WAY THAT YOU SADISTICALLY PREY UPON THOSE WHO ARE MOST DEFENSELESS- HOMELESS ANIMALS WHO HAVE ALREADY ENDURED ENOUGH ABUSE/NEGLECT/ABANDONMENT IN THEIR INNOCENT, TRAGIC LIVES!!! MARK FUCKERBERG, YOU ARE AN INHUMANE PIMP, TRAFFICKING IN THE SADISTIC, SEEDY WORLD OF ANIMAL ABUSE!!! 💪RENEE CARIGLIA
