Why do people kill animals? Well, the truth of the matter is that most animals killed by humans are for food. Animal meat makes a huge part of the diet of human beings. All kind of animals are killed for their meat. Some much more than others like chicken, cow, fish and pigs. But some people kill animal for sport and trophy collection. Have you ever seen the horns of certain animals attached to the wall of some proud hunters home? This is the worst thing anyone could do to an animal and that is to simply kill for fun. This makes the top of the list for animal abuse.
2. Beating
There are some people who believe that beating animals are cool. They will hit, kick and do all kinds of things to animals. Some people even intentionally use their vehicle to run over animals in the road.
3. Sports
Did you know that using animals in sport is animal abuse? Sports such as horse racing in any kind? There are those who goes pass just using animals in racing, they set up rings and let the animals fight and kill each other. This is a known fact that many people who decide to own pit bull dogs use them to make money in dog fighting. There are other animal fighting sports such as fowl or rooster fighting etc. Animals often get killed in this type of sport or ends up maimed for life. Another highest kind of cruelty to animals.
4. Neglect
There are many animal owners (mostly pet owners) who believe that when they acquire a pet that is it. There is no care, no love, just abandonment. Animals in captivation are sometimes left hungry and thirsty for days. Many have to had to whether the different variations of our climate by simply cowering into a corner while barrels of rain or snow is pelting them. Owners take long trips without first ensuring that the animal is cared for while they are away.
5. Circus Acts
Any circus which depicts animals such as lions, bears, seals etc doing tricks for applause is banned in my book. These animals often time are beaten into coherence. Often times are not properly fed and have to live in small cages for the rest of their lives. This can cause mental problems for the animals and one day they may snap and just try to break free.
If you see any kind of animal facing these type of situations listed above. Don't be afraid to speak out and help stop cruelty to animals.
