On a daily basis, about “7,000 pets are killed by their abusers”. People have to accept the fact that commercials on the television and little campaigns every now and then are not going to change that. The way we are dealing with this now is not at all the correct or most efficient way to do this. This abuse is in-human. Tell me, what is the difference between a human’s life and a dog’s life? Nothing. Life is life. The only differences are that it’s in another entity and that it is shorter than the average humans. Yet I believe, this makes it even more clear to leave the thing alone. If it has a short life, why not let it enjoy life the best it can? Animal abuse is growing and growing fast, and I think I know how to stop it. The current way …show more content…
is only through commercials and maybe some PSAs every now and then on the television. As it is evident in the way it is in current society, this is not even making a dent in the epidemic that is animal abuse. I believe that animal abuse should be treated as seriously as domestic or drug abuse. There should be counselors coming from school to school talking about the preciousness of every animal alive. We need to make sure none of our fellow classmates grow up to do these kind of things to animals. And if they do, we need to have a more serious prison sentence. I am going to tell you a story of an animal abuser I have heard of recently. The story contains some disturbing topics and ideas. If you are squeamish or love animals as family, please skip this paragraph. On February 17, 2014, a man named Bradley Boley was put in charge of a man’s 2-month-old Chihuahua named Buddy as the man went on vacation. As the evening progressed, Boley began continuously neglecting the puppy’s needs. As Boley sat there eating and watching the television for around 4-5 hours, Buddy …show more content…
That is why I think we should raise the animal abuse sentence from 6 months-5 years to something more serious like 5-10 years. Truly horrible people are not getting the reform they need through the current charges of animal mistreatment. This is only possible with a larger prison sentence. I believe everyone can be a good person if the just try, but some people like that need to try extra hard to find a
Homicide rates in America are now reaching over sixteen thousand this year alone and over two million reported cases of assault. There is a strong need for action to be taken to help lessen these unnecessarily high numbers. One of the most effective ways to keep these numbers low is to attack at the source of the issue. As said by the representatives over at PAWS, People Helping Animals (2014), animal cruelty is often the gateway for criminals to commit even more heinous crimes (PAWS, 2014). According to ALDF (2014), an organization that fights for animal abuse, multiple studies have shown that there is strong correlation between violent crimes and animal abuse.
In the U.S, an animal is abused every ten seconds, and we are the only people who can make a change. We will never be able to stop animal abuse, but the least we can do is help the animals who have been abused. Vet Ranch is a non-profit organization that does just that. They take abused animals out of kill shelters sometimes even hours before being euthanized and nurses them to full health. Vet Ranch works on donations from the public only, and without donations would not be able to function.
Why there is no stop to dog abuse? Why do people continue to beat these animals people ask, There is no answer, no law stating no animal abuse so no stopping it. These poor precious animals have a soul, and feelings to. If these animals continue to be treated this way they will continue to be aggressive towards people.
84% dogs involved in fatal attacks were abused or neglected. Mistreating an animal will make them fearful of humans, therefore, they will feel they have to defend themselves at all times. It will make them mean because people were once mean to them. It is a learned behavior.
Countless lives locked away in cages and forgotten about have overwhelmed our society, it has left blood stains on our history as a species and if history has taught us anything, it’s that we have a choice to change our ways of adjusting to situations. A war which was fought in means of ending such criminal acts, yet we as human beings do little to nothing to end the terrible crimes of animal deaths in shelters. Between these problems lies a terrible truth, nearly every year, almost eight million cats and dogs have been placed in shelters around the world. Out of these very large numbers, half will be euthanized. That equals to one animal being put down every 8 seconds.
Dogfighting Have you ever seen a dog, mainly a pitbull, on a heavy chain, with scars all over, and starved looking. If you have that dog was most likely a victim of dogfighting. Where they are forced to fight for their lives every second of every day. Everyday they must endure rigorous training, such as, being chained up on a treadmill with no way off, bite on hanging objects, injected with steroids or, even have their teeth filed to a point and constantly kept on heavy chains. To prevent dogfighting, the sentencing and fines need to be increased, have a dogfighting registry for the offenders, and implement animal cruelty officers.
A life is a life, i think that every living organisms on this planet that are breathing are important and we all should treat others with respect and with love. Animals are like us, not physically, but they can feel pain and lonely when we mistreated them in some ways. I believe humanity has the ethical obligation to change their behavior towards animals. In the article, “ A change of Hearts on Animals” written by Jeremy Rifkin stated some of his key points that humans should focuses more on animals’ feelings.
“Within the Special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States. Whoever is guilty of murder in the first degree shall be punished by death or by imprisonment for life” (U.S. code of law). We live in a country where taking a life is a serious crime, unless that it 's a life of an animal, which can neither speak nor understand the horrifying actions that are being carried out. Pets can think, feel and act, just like people do, they’re alive. If animals are alive, like humans, then why should taking away their life result in a maximum 2 years in prison and a fine that never exceeds 1,000 dollars?
Worst of all there are times when dogs die of being beaten, whipped and kicked. This can happen when the dog is not going fast enough, or if they are slowing down the pack, the owner would kill them or hurt them so they would go faster. Owners can be awful to their dogs, at checkpoints dogs drink out of rusty buckets, when the dog is sick they are sometimes forced to run and sometimes the owners just don’t care enough for their dogs as they do

Alejandra Jimenez Ms. Sickler English 10 January 26, 2018 Animal Cruelty Animal Cruelty, also known as animal abuse, is the deliberate act of violence towards animals. It has been reported that animal abuse can lead to domestic abuse. Animal cruelty is linked to an increase in both violence and crime. Animals used for entertainment and gaming purposes are forced to partake in events and actions.
It’s cruel and inhumane, which is why it has to end right now. If you disagree, you have to ask yourself: “Why not? Why don’t you want to end their suffering? How can you sit there and watch such cruelty?” Making animals test subjects are wrong, no matter what’s its purpose.
Animal Cruelty Have you ever wondered how much atrocious animal treatments are occurring around the world? The average number of animal abuse cases reported in the media each year is 1,920 according to a study conducted this year by Statistic Brain Research Institute. Moreover, a lot of animals struggle around the globe because they are often beaten, neglected and hunted, which forces them to fight for survival. Helpless animals continue to be exploited by humans and are still constantly being robbed of their lives. Thus, animal cruelty is the killing, exploiting and neglecting the needs of animals that are causing extinction and nonessential suffering.
Animals are being abused everyday and they are not taken into consideration when you see them being abused. They are suffering and they are being abused everyday and you all need to stop it. Animal cruelty is not something that just goes away the person doing it will keep doing it until someone stops them. Everyone needs to stop animal abuse and if everyone starts to make a difference others will to. Animals need help with this and everyone needs to help them.
Exploitation is an act or action that is selfish and will only bring benefit to the exploiter. Animal exploitation is being practiced all over the world. Animals are being beaten and mistreated.
