SHowing Animals Respect and Kindness

Southwest Airlines, Have a Heart!

What is a "progressive" company like Southwest thinking? Southwest Airlines tries to appear animal-friendly by sponsoring the Humane Society of the United States's Genesis Awards, but then turns around and gives money to an industry that abuses hundreds of thousands of animals in rodeos every year. Clearly the airline has no real ethical standard.

Instead Southwest Airlines likes to promote the rodeo as 'family entertaiment'. Click here to read SWA's opinion that rodeo is "fun" sport.

Then go to RodeoCruelty.com to learn the truth. You will see there is nothing to LUV about rodeos.

Southwest says they are "A Symbol of Freedom". Freedom of what? Freedom to abuse? Freedom to shock horses? Freedom from cruelty laws? Find out more about the SWA-sponsored rodeo that SHARK exposed here.

WHAT CAN YOU DO?

Please contact SWA and tell them that as long as they support animal abuse, you will not fly with them. Urge them to join the ranks of ethical businesses that have stopped their sponsorships of rodoes, like Starbucks Coffee, Choice Hotels, Marriott Hotels, and others.

Does Southwest Fly Unsafe Planes Because of Rodeo Sponsorship?

On March 6th, 2008, CNN reported that Southwest Airlines flew thousands of passengers on aircraft that federal inspectors said were "unsafe", according to detailed congressional documents.

Did Southwest fail to maintain these planes because the company wasted so much money on sponsoring animal cruelty at rodeos? We examine the issue in this video.

Some of the rodoes sponsored by SWA include:

Southwest should be ashamed to have their name and reputation put up alongside that of a brutal and barbaric event, like the Austin Rodeo.

  • San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo
  • Arkansas State Fair Rodeo
  • Industry Hills, CA Pro Rodeo
  • Tucson AZ La Fiesta de los Vaqueros Rodeo
  • Mesquite, TX Championship Rodeo
  • Star of Texas Fair and Rodeo, Austin
