Animal cruelty is any act of violence or neglect against an animal. Animals are subjects to inhumane treatment by the hands of many individuals, however there is little done in order to protect them from this form of physical and neglectful treatment. Though there are several laws against this type of conduct, a great deal of animal abuse is unforeseen and these animals are victims whom cannot protect themselves. Animals around the world are being taken out of their natural habitats, being breaded and fed antibiotics. Cruelty among the animals range from puppy mills, zoos, factory farms, and many more.Animals have no way to voice their own opinion and pain, so we must speak for them. There are endless forms of animal cruelty. Cruelty and abuse come in forms of pet neglecting, torture, animal testing, dog fighting, mental abuse, physical abuse, farm factoring, ect… Many people believe that animals do not feel pain, and do not deserve the same rights as human beings. i really hate people who harm animals its cruel,wrong and they deserve a punishment that is more severe rather than a slap on the wrist. make animal cruelty a criminal offence. no animal deserves to be left like this little dog god bless him.
