He spoke freely about its influence and animation pioneer and Disney staff animator Hugh Harmon also mentioned Lutz&#8217;s book as having been a crucial source of reference in the early years in Disney&#8217;s Kansas City studio. ~<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\">If anyone would like a high res. scan of the cartoon \u2013 just send an email to:\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #008000;\">humanitarianleague (at) outlook (dot) com\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #008000;\">&#8211; or message me through\u00a0HappyCow\u00a0<span style=\"color: #993366;\">&#8211;\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/author\/JohnnySensible\/\"  target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: #993366;\">https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/author\/JohnnySensible\/<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>The <em>E<em>r<\/em>nest Bell Library<\/em>\u00a0has a growing collection of veg-art \u2013 \u2026\u2026art, illustrations, cartoons &amp; photos benefiting animals.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Please support us \/ help us to build &amp; preserve our collection.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\">More about the &#8211;<em> Ernest Bell Library<\/em>\u00a0&#8211; here &#8211;\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/remembering-vegetarian-pioneers-henry-s-salt-ernest-bell\/\"  target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: #993366;\">https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/remembering-vegetarian-pioneers-henry-s-salt-ernest-bell\/<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>NOTES ON DISNEY &amp; ANIMALS &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong><strong>SAD ASPECTS, CONTROVERSY &amp; DOWNRIGHT MISTAKES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Walt Disney was known to adore the taste of cow flesh &#8211; but many of his films have greatly increased people&#8217;s awareness of &amp; interest in animals.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8216;animal prison&#8217; &#8211; Disney&#8217;s Animal Kingdom &#8211;\u00a0is probably the biggest mistake that the Disney Company has ever made &#8211;\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Disney\" s_Animal_Kingdom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"external nofollow\">http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Disney&#8217;s_Animal_Kingdom<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A well written article &#8211;\u00a0<strong>The\u00a0Dark\u00a0Days\u00a0Of\u00a0Disney:\u00a0Slavery,\u00a0Propaganda,\u00a0Animal\u00a0Cruelty,\u00a0And\u00a0More\u00a0<\/strong>&#8211;\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/junkee.com\/the-dark-days-of-disney-slavery-propaganda-animal-cruelty-and-more\/14742\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"external nofollow\">http:\/\/junkee.com\/the-dark-days-of-disney-slavery-propaganda-animal-cruelty-and-more\/14742<\/a><\/p>\n<p>~ When your company has been making films since 1923, it is inevitable that, as sensibilities shift and time insists on remaining linear, you will find your back-catalogue strewn with quite objectionable content. ~<\/p>\n<p>There are a large number of blogs which discuss the options for vegan eating at Disney locations &amp; Walt Disney&#8217;s effect on the animal rights movement.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a community\u00a0for <strong>veg<\/strong>(etari)<strong>an\u00a0fans\u00a0of\u00a0Walt\u00a0Disney\u00a0World<\/strong>! &#8211;\u00a0<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Veg-Disney\/156482917746997\"  rel=\"external nofollow\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Veg-Disney\/156482917746997<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A cartoon from the Ernest Bell Library. &#8216;Dangers of Flesh Eating&#8217; &#8211; by &#8211; Edwin George (E.
