Again Dylan Dog, the hero / antihero par excellence of the circuit of the publisher Bonelli, former spokesperson in the past campaigns against abandonment and stray dogs, is the protagonist of a story to ethics, animal rights.
is not the first time in my albums of the nightmare of the suspect are topics that relate closely to our society. Dylan Dog, Latin lover par excellence, however, destined to never find the love of his life, is a man of sound moral principles: no drinking, no smoking, and above all a deep sense of respect for animals and nature, is not by chance also totally "denied" for everything that is vaguely technological.
In the history of August, "The hill of rabbits ", our" hero "is to investigate a mysterious phenomenon: the rabbits in the area have turned into zombies and attacking people of a remote village in the English countryside.
Why did it happen? And what makes the animals "died" to return to kill?
The answer lies in the past, a company that was practiced vivisection of many rabbits. After being subjected to the most atrocious suffering, the animals were buried alive and now are back for revenge.
The topic is hot, vivisection has always been the subject of conflict between animal welfare organizations and pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Much has been trying to do over the years to protect the right to life and dignity of these animals (guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, but also cats, dogs, monkeys and many other races yet), although the road there is still much to do.
One thing certain is the growing interest in this subject population, also due to the wide dissemination of information on the cruelty of vivisection, obtained through websites, blogs and forums of many animal welfare groups now present on Italian territory.
In this issue of Dylan Dog, the subject of vivisection is perhaps only hinted at, but the emotional impact that comes from reading the last pages, is worth the cost of the register.
