A little about the talk
This description was taken from the original video on YouTube.
Throughout the ages, humans have been asking ‘what if’ to challenge past ways of thinking and open up new ways of living.
And today, as never before, our answers to ‘what if?’ questions will not only determine our future, but whether we – humans, animals and the planet – shall even have one.
Animals have long endured the worst of humanity and so again it’s time to ask ‘what if…’ in examining our relationship with them: ‘what if we could live happy and healthy lives without harming others?
Pam Ahern describes herself as an animal advocate. She lives in the small country town of Lancefield, Victoria with an eclectic mix of formerly farmed animals.
Starting out life in suburban Melbourne when told she could not have a pony, Pam’s ingenuity saw her create one.
Since that time, and with animals always at her heart, and often in her bed, Pam has been creating a kinder world for animals. From the one-time champion equestrian she became, so yes, she did get a real pony, she gave it all up when a tiny piglet she named Edgar came into her life and took them both in a direction neither could ever have imagined.
