Supermodel Windy Yolanda Pushes Animal Rights

Windy Yolanda Amran, a supermodel from Indonesia and Top 15 Semifinalist in Supermodel International 2016 made another breakthrough in her life, animal rights. This agenda comes no easy for Windy, having a career for modeling and pageants; she is dedicated to make animals free of suffering and abuse.

Thus, she recently joined an Indonesian-based animal welfare organization, named Garda Satwa. The non-government organization helps in animal welfare, promotes animal adoption and teaches people that animals have rights too.

We asked Windy as to the reason why she is passionate for the animals and she said: “Because humans can defend themselves as we know our rights and stand our ground but for animals, they have no one to defend them but themselves and even at many times they are not capable to do so. I believe that every creature with a will to live has a right to live free from pain and suffering. To me, animal rights isn't just a philosophy, it is social movements that challenges ideas and society's traditional views that all animals exist solely for the use of human. I stand for this view because if it isn't us humans, who else?”
