Activist Teresa D'Amico, after having numerous letters to the editor published over the years, approached the publisher of her local newspaper with an offer to write a monthly column on issues regarding animal rights/welfare. The intent is to educate readers in a rural area where hunting is a major industry and restaurants cater to carnivores.
