Allow the reporting of animal cruelty

The Issue

Currently if you want to report a picture, video, post or comment you get presented with a variety of options, however you do not get the option to Report Animal Cruelty, it's important that the voiceless get protected from cruel owners/people, that this glorification, of often graphic animal abuse, gets stopped. It's not allowed in law however daily we are bombarded with people abusing animals for a "laugh", to show they are "cool" or "hard" - these people should be reported and Facebook should remove and report these scenes of violence so that authorities can deal with Abusers. Facebook needs to be more sctrict in regards to animal abuse! They need to review their Community Standards to stop the perpetuation of glorified animal abuse!

This petition is not aimed at organisations fighting abuse but solely at individuals or pages that glorify abuse and violence.
