Why doesn’t CPR focus on ‘more important’ issues?

April 7, 2016 by Kristin Leave a Comment

There are many animal welfare issues out there and a very limited capacity to address them all. We work on a few different campaigns, therefore we must allocate our resources to ensure that we keep up the pressure on the people responsible for the cruelty we are addressing. As you will note, we have successfully managed to do this with jumps racing for 6 years straight.

On a side note, there was no publicity surrounding jumps racing, it was a forgotten, ugly section of the racing industry that very few people were talking about it. When CPR decided to take it on as a campaign, it was through our hard work, professionalism, commitment and extensive research that we were able to provide a logical and rational voice for the horses who had all but been forgotten. As a result of this, most people now overwhelmingly oppose jumps racing – but just a few short years ago, they barely knew it existed.
