The aim of this conference was to target problems such as worldwide animal abuse, supression of animal activism and helping animals that are the among the victims of natural disasters. "Exposing and challenging the daily terror against animals."Thousands of animal rights activists from forty US states and thirteen different countries were part of the conference and all were welcome to the one hundred sessions that took place, addressing the issues I mentioned above. The sessions were divided into four categories: main issues, organisation, animal abuse, and tactics used to tackle these problems.
There were many different representatives from organisations such as FARM, SAEN (Stop Animal Exploitation Now) and COK (Compassion Over Killing). Sam Simon, co-creator of The Simpsons, also made an appearance. The picture is of various representatives who were at the conference and I got it from the conference's website.
