  • The Pros And Cons Of Puppy Mills

    Because these canines are used to sitting in their own filth, they have potty training issues. Franklin D. McMillian from Best Friend Animal Society conducted a study where they examined that “puppy mill dogs displayed significantly higher rates of fear (both social and nonsocial), house-soiling, and compulsive staring; and significantly lower rates of aggression (towards strangers and other dogs), trainability, chasing small animals, excitability, and energy.” These dogs aren’t just affected physically, they are affected mentally; veterinarians are almost never on the premises, meaning these dogs can not get the care they need. Puppy mills are using this to sell their dogs to people nationwide.

However is that really the truth that animals in circus are well treated? My answer is "NO". Even thought circus provide animals a place to stay but it is just a small cage that they can't even walk freely and some of the big size animal like elephant will be tied by chain. All animals are supposed to be running freely in grassland, but animals in circus have been take away their freedom.

  • Should Animals Have Rights?

    1090 Words  | 3 Pages

    Some people believe that killing animals is unacceptable. They believe that violates animal rights if such rights existed. Tom Regan wrote in Religion and Animal Rights that “the animal rights position concerns the alleged wrongfulness of treating animals in certain ways (Regan). I agree that some people do treat animals cruelly and I believe that should be outlawed. Animals are defenseless creatures and it is not fair to abuse an animal when animals can not defend themselves in a way that a human being could defend themselves. They do not have the will power like we do to fight off such predators.

  • Animal Cruelty: The Universal Entertainment Industry

    1220 Words  | 3 Pages

    The universal entertainment industry, with its long history of treating all performers equally and respecting all forms of art with no judgement or prejudice, has paved the way for humanity to create negative consequences in the form of commercial zoos, aquariums, circuses, and similar institutions where the bravery of animals is continuously tested by the cruelty of humanity. Humanity, with its history of treating its own people like lesser beings, has now moved onto mistreating animals- confining animals into small enclosures and limiting their exercise, loaning and trading animals to other institutions, and tearing animals away from their families for the sake of profit and entertainment. These poor animals kept in captivity also have a shorter lifespan (with one example being orca whales who lose a median of ninety-one years from its maximum age of a hundred) and often suffer forms of extreme anxiety which could lead to further violence at the institutions. In spite of all of this cruelty, there is also a lack of income and customers being produced from these horrific actions- with customer attendance going down each year all around the world (especially in America). To me, I see

    Since the beginning of the modern day circus in the early 20th century millions of Americans have enjoyed the performances by both the people and the animals that perform for our entertainment. However, the audience is blinded by shock and awe of the show from what really happens behind the curtain. Animal cruelty, poor living conditions, and lack of legal regulation scars the animals and becomes very dangerous to the overall health of the animals and those who are around them. The mistreatment of animals in circuses has been occurring for far too long, and new laws need to be implemented in an effort to prevent future acts of cruelty toward these animals.

It is important to educate oneself of the conditions to which circus animals are subjected, because it is the only way that the American people as a whole can begin to reform our laws to work to fully protect these animals. Whether the United States needs to ban the use of animals in the circus nearly all together as Finland has, or simply keep a closer eye on their involvement and treatment by following in the footsteps of Italy and Belgium, a change does indubitably need to be seen in order to ensure that all animals involved in the circus industry of America are not abused simply for our mere, selfish entertainment.

  • Pit Bulls Essay

    1033 Words  | 3 Pages

    Their names are Zeus and Hera and they are some of the kindest, goofiest dogs I have lived with. My dogs love to play and cuddle more than anything. They don’t bark at people walking past the house, or at other pets and animals when they go on their daily walks. To me it is absolutely ridiculous that these sweet dogs are hated so widely across the country because PEOPLE gave them a bad reputation. The Breed of American Pit Bull Terriers is considered a “fight dog” breed today because criminals use them for illegal affairs such as protecting drugs and dog fighting. Pit bulls are extremely tough dogs, but it is not in their nature to fight. Fight dogs are beaten, abused, starved, and left in cages until they are sent to fight another dog. They are trained to act out this behavior that is not seen elsewhere. Humans train dogs to be viscous. There are rare cases where dogs are overly aggressive, however, in most of those instances the dog is a product of incest
