The time will come when men such as I will look upon the murder of animals as they now look upon the murder of men. - Leonardo Da Vinci, Italian Painter, Sculptor, Architect, Musician, Engineer, and Scientist

PROMOTING COMPASSION & ENCOURAGING RESPONSIBILITY

Provide your students with truly amazing life lessons! Humane education is about learning to respect life in our homes, communities and the environment. Humane education encourages good citizenship, social responsibility, and individual decision making. Most importantly, humane education strives to establish a sense of responsibility, making the world a better, more humane place.

Many approaches are used to empower students to be creative thinkers. Humane Education Programs accomplishes this task by relying heavily on lessons taught by animals. Here's why!

Animals have a unique ability to captivate and teach, providing a mirror to human situations.

Issues such as compassion, abuse, responsibility, anger, respect and teasing, are openly discussed and easily transferred to human situations.

Animals serve as an indicator of the environment, allowing students to see the consequences human actions have on surroundings.

Lessons inspired by animals result in increased awareness and self motivated behavior.
