Huffington Post: 'We Animals' Book Exposes Sadness Of Animal Captivity With Stunning Photos

Posted: 18 Jan 2014 02:35 PM PST

The following is an excerpt from "We Animals," a photojournalistic book that documents the lives of animals in captivity, by Jo-Anne McArthur.

In the course of a decade and a half as a photojournalist, I've met hundreds of thousands of animals. Some were only in passing and others I've gotten to know over many years. I've encountered animals who endure and have endured unimaginable pain and suffering, and others fortunate enough to be cared for by loving and dedicated human companions. I've been into the heart of industrial farming facilities and medical testing labs that have been constructed to wring as much profit for as little expenditure—of effort, tenderness or money—from the animals whose lives begin and end there. But I've also found refuge with people and organizations who bring devotion, affection and resources to nurture and heal those who were broken and discarded. I've seen complete indifference and heartrending compassion, misguided ignorance and deliberate torture. I've found myself in a world of bars and metal and stench and despair, and a world of space and earth and fresh air and hope.

We Animals and the project of the same name that birthed it are my attempts to honour the remarkable individuals, both human and nonhuman, whom I've met along the way. This book, a sampling of a hundred photographs from the thousands I've taken for the project, is my addition to the library of works that educate people about the extent and intensity of the ongoing war human beings are waging against our animal kin. It endeavours to break down the mental and physical barriers we've built that allow us to treat our fellow creatures as objects and not as sentient beings.
