Stop Public Contact with Dangerous Animals - in many places, the public can interact with wild animals. Animals such as big cats, bears, and nonhuman primates are found at malls, fairs, and roadside zoos. Allowing the public to pet, feed, pose with, and play with these animals is dangerous and inhumane. Many animals go through abusive trainings to instill fear in hopes of taming them for public contact.

To facilitate such unsafe handling, baby tigers, lions, bears, and primates are pulled from the care of their protective mothers shortly after birth. When the baby animals can no longer be used as play props, or for photographs — sometimes after just a few months � they are often discarded at roadside zoos, sold into the pet trade, or killed for their meat. This cycle of breeding, exploiting, and then dumping baby animals puts animals at risk and endangers the public. Please don't be part of this problem... http://ow.ly/Dac7304ckw1

You don't have to be a traveler to know about Uber -- it has become a worldwide phenomenon (the word "Uberisation" even has its own Wikipedia entry).
But that doesn't mean that Uber is your only option when you need a ride; in fact, in many places it isn't an option at all. The reasons for its absence in some markets vary, and haven't been helped by Uber's ruthless business practices, but most big markets tend to have some Uber alternatives.

Uber not available? Don't like the way it does business? Check out this comprehensive list of Uber alternatives around the world.
