This artist by the name of milkdongcomics on Instagram creates illustrations. However, those illustrations are not simply art. They have a heavy message behind them—animal abuse. Many of us don't even think about all the ways animals are being mistreated by humanity. So this artist created a project called "Murder Scene" to shock us back to reality.

The art may be uncomfortable for many people, but it's the sad reality of many critters in this world. Perhaps this art will make us rethink our actions and create a world safe for animals. Many organizations are already working towards that. Consider donating to shelters and institutions working to save animals and give them a better life.

Animal abuse is common all over the world. Research shows that animal abuse strongly connects with abuse against people. The most common animals abused are pets, like cats, dogs, and farm animals.

We asked the artist what inspired him to create these illustrations: "I love nature. All of the creatures on the earth are beautiful! Unfortunately, many of them are endangered, therefore, I created a collection of drawings with messages about animal cruelty. The name of the series is "HEY HUMAN, SEE WHAT YOU DO!?" I wanna convey the message to more people through my art, attract more people to raise awareness about the endangered creatures. This is a serious issue!"

RELATED:

    There are many forms animal abuse takes: from hoarding too many animals, breeding them incorrectly, to slaughtering them for fur, horns, and teeth, to even organizing fights and pitting animals against one another. Many would argue that there aren't enough laws to help prevent animal abuse; usually, people responsible for mistreating animals are not persecuted.

    The artist shared what inspired him to touch upon such heavy topics: "The natural ecosystem is closely linked with humans, so I wanna try my best to do something for animals, the next-generation, and the earth!"

    De-clawing is illegal in the UK, with good reason. It’s like cutting off a cat’s fingertips.

    "Every time that animals are killed for human benefits, make me very angry!"

    There are many discussions about testing drugs, makeup, and other products on animals. Many companies are going the cruelty-free route—however, many believe it's necessary to ensure the safety of the product.

    Humans and animals have been inseparable from one another from the very beginning. Animals are a very important part of our lives, not to mention our planet. So please be considerate and report any animal abuse you see, donate, and help this world become a safer place for them.

    "The most important message is when the buying stops the killing can too. Humans must wonder what is their needs, they should able to distinguishing between wants and needs. Desire is not essential. Just think about it before you buy, eat and use!"

    Milk Dong Comics shared what he does in life: "I enjoy swimming in the ocean, walking in nature with my lovely doggies. Creating art is my job, Hong Kong is a society under commercial pressure and it is hard to survive in it. I had been employed in different industries for livelihood. For example designer, visual merchandiser, art teacher, sales, customer service, ware-houseman, restaurant waiter, fishmonger, coolie, and many more. However, even after all of it I never give up on art!"

    I really hope they stop capturing animals from the wild to show them off in zoos. It's better to appreciate them in their natural habitats and not as part of capitalism. I also hope they stop forcing them to breed.

    these sharks die without fins. they need them to swim, sharks always need to keep moving, and without fins, they can't, and die :( its so sad. would you like it if someone cut you arms and feet off, and then didn't care if you slowly bled to death?

    This is horrible. Why can't people understand that this is cruel? Why do people need the fur of an endangered tiger for a rug they step on? Why can't you be a normal person and make a piano out of wood instead of ivory from elephant tusks? Just be normal and think of others before yourself!!

    Men in third world countries sometimes have sex with female donkeys. I doubt it hurts them.

    Donkeys are so gentle but so exploited and abused by the very people they work for, it's a crime against nature.

    A lifelong friend has trained horses and mules all his life... His trick to getting them to do what he wants? He keeps peppermints in his pockets, they'll follow him anywhere he goes.

    There is no need to whip an animal to make it work... the whipping is ONLY needed once the animal has reached its limits- but human beings don't care about that, making animals carry impossible loads that they can't carry. I know many people in underdeveloped countries rely on the mules and donkeys as a transport for them or their produce etc., but we really need to encourage better husbandry methods... [ADDENDUM: To clarify, I am in NO WAY ADVOCATING or IN FAVOUR of using violence against animals to make them work.]

    Yes, but in many of 'those' countries, the very people who depend so much in an animal for transport, carrying loads and working daily will also sacrifice food for themselves so that their animal is healthy. For without that animal they will be destitute, and possibly even break up the family by either child or adult leaving to find work elsewhere.

    The donkeys on Santorini, Greek Islands, are forced hour after hour, to carry obese people up and down a steep, winding, slippery cobbled path. If they stumble, they are hit with sticks. Every donkey has scars. Sickening. We walked.

    Apparently, it's inconclusive if they're actually fully extinct. If they are, I hope we can clone them back someday.

    It all happens where a dog from Thailand accidentally boarded a cargo ship en route to Hong Kong. Their Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department euthanized the dog with the reason that it came from area with rabies outbreak.
