The image shows a peaceful scene with a sheep and two lambs lying on a grassy field. The sheep is gently nuzzling one of the lambs, creating a tender and caring moment. Overlaying the image is a quote by Lyn White that reads, "Since we can lead healthy, happy, fulfilling lives without harming those who share this world with us, why wouldn't we?" The text is in white, with Lyn White's name in green.
Why would we choose to harm others when we could easily not?

A four-panel cartoon by Vegan Sidekick.
In the first panel, a stick figure asks another figure holding a calf, "What are you doing?" The second figure replies, "Killing this baby."
In the second panel, the first figure asks, "Why are you doing that?" The second figure responds, "I want to drink his motherโs milk."
In the third panel, the first figure suggests, "Why not drink something else?"
In the final panel, the second figure, now standing over the dead calf, says, "Donโt be so extreme." The comic is signed with "facebook.com/vegansidekick."
Vegans, the obvious extremists.

ALT: two ducklings are drinking water from a bowl
Billions of baby chicks are ground up alive, dairy calves are torn from mothers, & fish are suffocated by the trillions and are only measured in weight.
Veganism is not about what you don't eat, it's about the life you save by choosing to eat plants.
Veganism is not hard, but it is just. Go vegan.

A black and white cow lies on the ground, appearing distressed, in an industrial setting. The image is overlaid with text: 'In memory of the forgotten mothers. Dairy is a slaughter industry. Their babies are stolen from them. They are turned into milk machines. They are killed when they stop producing milk.' At the bottom, there is a logo and text indicating the source as Animal Liberation Victoria.
