Animal Cruelty may very well be the worst possible thing that has ever occurred. Why hasn't the government taken action with creating a law to ban it? No one really knows the answer to that question. Innocent creatures are being tortured and abused, while such things would never happen to humans. Animals should be treated the same way that people are. there are all types of abuse poaching Some animals are going extinct because of poaching. Poaching is also another animal abuse method. People cut the body parts off of the animals and the poachers leave them to die. For example, elephants and their tusks. People cut off the tusks of the elephants and they leave the elephants all bloody and waiting to die. Even if the elephants survive, elephants can't survive that long without their tusks because predators will eat them. I think it's just sad how bad people treat animals. And I'm not just talking about domestic animals, even thought they are also mistreated, I'm also talking about wild animals, who are forced out of their environments,brought to zoos, killed for their fur. But what people don't realize is that they're living things too, they breathe,cry, dream, and have feelings like us,Animal abuse should be banned because it is harming animals every second of every day. This is just not right because we are all animals to, and i know that we would not like to be put under a table like that so why should we do that to them. No matter if animals are humans or not they should still be treated with respect. They have the same feelings as humans, but they dont exactly have the ability to voice their problems except in the action of attack. They should not have to worry about being hurt everyday, or not being fed. Animals are supposed to be man's best friend.maybe we should put all people who are cruel to animals in a cell and just forget about them and let them die then maybe people will wake up to animal cruelty its wrong in everyway.!!!!!!!!!!!
