As of lately I've read way too many horrendous stories about about the utter neglect, torture and killing of animals and it needs to stop. Animals can’t speak for themselves, which is why it’s so important to use our voice to help them. Abuse, cruelty and neglect will never stop unless we all work together to make the world a better place for animals. Animals just like children are innocent and helpless, depending on us to protect and care for them. If the punishment is more severe I feel it will help save so many animals from these atrocities.
