Social media personality Mishel Taroni has announced the creation of a private 'Animal Police' force, distinct from Israeli law enforcement, aimed at punishing individuals who abuse animals. Taroni posted a series of threatening messages on Instagram targeting teenagers involved in animal cruelty, their parents, and school educators.
Under the banner of 'Animal Police,' Taroni outlined what he termed 'new laws,' including the public exposure of personal details, protests outside families' homes, and demands for financial penalties. This initiative was reportedly sparked by a video showing a 16-year-old boy allegedly throwing a cat. Taroni subsequently shared a video call with the alleged abuser's brother and expanded his threats to include parents and schools.
Taroni stated that parents who fail to educate their children about animal welfare will face financial penalties or other consequences. Similarly, teachers and principals who do not conduct lessons on the topic will be held responsible. He detailed plans to expose students' personal information to facilitate protests at their homes and to demand a written condemnation from their parents.
Accompanying Taroni and Dennis Tsarkov in the posts were images of them wearing attire labeled 'Animal Police' with police-like insignia. Taroni indicated that the names of the students' schools, cities, and classes would be published, and responsible teachers or principals would be labeled 'failed principals and educators.' He called for mandatory lessons on animal cruelty in schools.
Furthermore, Taroni announced plans for a website to publicly display animal abusers until they 'pay their debt to society through community service or a financial fine,' with content to be removed only after payment. He also threatened to expose entire families, stating, 'We will make sure to publish you with your family forever on the Animal Police website.' Taroni concluded by emphasizing that there would be no more forgiveness, only fines, and asserted that he was creating the law because no effective law currently exists.
