Animal Rights

Continued from Page 7

to the Talmud, our obligation
to relieve an animal from
pain or danger supercedes
rabbinic ordinances related to
the Sabbath. Because Jewish
law on preventing cruelty to
animals is derived directly
from a biblical verse, it is said
to have the authority of the
Torah.
With such a strong
religious tradition of "tza'ar
ba'alei chayim," concern for
relieving the suffering of
animals, one would expect to
find Jews in the forefront of
the animal rights movement,
just as they have been in the
forefront of other movements
for social change. The reverse
is true.
Very few Jews figure pro-
minently in the animal
welfare/rights movement. Not
a single major Jewish
organization spends one cent
to relieve animal suffering,
either in the United States or
in Israel. No national Jewish
organizations have taken a
stand opposing the various
cruelities against animals.
Some attribute the Jewish
lack of interest in animals to
the fact that Jews were poor
and lived in ghettos, without
the necessary space or finan-
cial ability to keep pets. Jews
still have the smallest percen-
tage of pet ownership of any
white ethnic group in
America. Some say it's
because Jews always' have
been an urban people, and un-
til the creation of Israel, had
no opportunity to live with
animals in a farm setting.
Now that Jews have a
homeland and several genera-
tions of experience working
the land in a farm setting,
does this mean that the at-
titude of Israeli Jews toward
animals is better than that of
American Jews? Hardly. In
Israel, the municipalities
routinely "control" stray cat
and dog overpopulation by
putting out strychnine
poison-laced food in the
streets. Pets, as well as the
starving strays who consume
the poisoned food, die of
asphyxiation during convul-
sions over a period of up to 10
hours, often before the eyes of
the children who own them.
Cruelty to animals is not
uncommon. Horses, donkeys
and mules are often over-
worked, underfed, abused and
abandoned. No municipal or
federal funds go to help
animal welfare and the few
small, inadequate shelters
are run mostly by volunteers
and survive entirely on in-
dividual contributions. Fac-
tory farming with all its at-
tendant suffering is the norm
on Israeli kibbutzim. And the
production of goose liver pate,
which involves cruelly force-

feeding geese until their
livers become enlarged and
then slaughtering them, is a
big export business.
When CHAI, Concern for
Helping Animals in Israel,
sought to donate an animal
ambulance to the SPCA, the
Society for Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals, in Israel,
the Finance Ministry denied
entry to the vehicle because
neither the SPCA nor CHAI
could afford the $20,000 per
vehicle customs duty. Despite
appeals to allow the animal
ambulance the same duty-
free status as ambulances for
humans from 25 U.S. senators
and congressmen, the ex-
ecutive director of the Union
of Orthodox Jewish Con-
gregations, virtually every
national and international
animal welfare organization
and prominent individuals
like Isaac Bashevis Singer,
the ministry held firm in its
demand. The SPCA was
denied the donated am-
bulance that would have
allowed it to pick up sick,
stray and injured animals and
transport them to a shelter.
What about kosher
slaughter or shechitah, the
intent of which is specifical-
ly to prevent animal suffering
and pain? As performed by
many slaughterhouses today,
that intent is violated.
Because Department of
Agriculture regulations re-
quire than an animal be off
the floor when the throat is
slit, common procedure is to
shackle one ankle of the cow
and hoist the 1,600-pound ter-
rified animal upside down,
causing tearing of muscles
and tendons, hemorraging
and even a broken leg or
pelvis., The animal may re-
main in this position for some
time before the throat is slit.
Non-kosher slaughter
allows the animal to be
stunned prior to hoisting,
while kosher slaughter re-
quires that the animal be ful-
ly conscious throughout the
process. A restraining pen has
been in existence since the
1960s that allows the animal
to be elevated off the floor
without shackling and
hoisting. Jews need to press
for laws requiring use of this
pen, and rabbis need to ad-
dress the fact that shackling
and hoisting violates the in-
tent of shechitah by causing
tremendous suffering and in-
jury, therefore rendering the
meat non-kosher.
Better still, become a
vegetarian. Judaism presents
vegetarianism as the ideal.
Blessings are said only for
vegetarian foods, never for
meat. To be vegetarian is to
practice three tenets of
Judaism — compassion for
