First, I think the monkey’s should illegal to keep as any kind of private ownership because finger monkeys can be very aggressive and scary. They can do this because
Memento is a kind of movie that I have never seen before. The movie tells will be confused early on when they see this movie because Memento is presented as two different parts of scenes changing during the film: black and white scenes shown the scene in order and color scenes shown in reverse order. The two scenes meet at the end of the movie, as a cohesive narrative. The thriller film was directed by my favorite director Christopher Nolan who is a famous director who had success with Batman and

there are several people who see how showing livestock affects kids in school and in life. I chose this topic because so many people think that showing livestock is just a waste of time and money, but they have no idea what it entails. Other people don’t realize that showing livestock isn’t about the money or just having a pet. I am writing this paper because everybody should know that showing isn’t about having a pet, it’s about gaining responsibilities and learning new things that can help you later
they would fight for it. Indifference can become extremely dangerous because once you start getting to out of hand because you become brain washed to what you’re doing to innocent people. Such as treating people like they’re animals and that they don’t matter. You start to get in a groove where you look at everyone and think you’re better than them and you have the control. “Faster, you tramps, you flea-ridden dog!” “Faster you filthy dogs” (85). This shows us that the Jews
it just tore into the skin and some tendons. Another time I hurt an animal in a trap was when I caught a small skunk in a dogproof raccoon trap and I think it broke its leg from being so committed to the trap.

Yet thousands of these animals are forced to perform silly, confusing tricks under the threat of physical punishment; are carted across the country in cramped and stuffy boxcars; are kept chained in filthy enclosures and separated from their families and friends- all for the sake of “human entertainment”. In 2011, the famous circus show, Ringling Brothers and Barnum Bailey Circus paid $270,000 for

In Animals Farm, there is a pig who’s name Napoleon. This character did not contributed to the society with his actions.

a form of psychosis that can cause them to sway or pace continually, chew on their own limbs until they bleed, or pull out their own fur or feathers” (Holmberg). Animals show neurotic behavior because of how they are treated. Workers and trainers don't satisfy animals needs and wants. Their anger builds up causing them to turn to biting and chewing.

Animals shouldn’t be tested on because some of those that are tested on die due to a mimicked disease, the pain that they endure is basically animal abuse, and
