Pam Ahern lives each day in tune with true happiness. She is the founder of Edgar’s Mission, a farm animal sanctuary in Victoria where she - and others - care for abandoned animals and animals rescued from factory farming. A loving advocate for the rights of animals, Pam approaches the subject without judgment or anger. But she wants us to talk about why we treat some animals - like our dogs and cats - with love and protection but don’t give the same rights to the animals we farm for food, like pigs, cows and chickens. She also asks the question: What if we are wrong? What if we are not supposed to use animals for food but are supposed to care for them instead? It’s an uncomfortable subject for a lot of people but Pam has a lot of wisdom to share about How We Can Live Happy Lives Without Harming Others.
