Animals are suffering

Animal abuse should stop. This video is telling us about how sad animals are. Animals need love and cares but instead most of them are suffering abuse everyday. They want to have a voice to speak up but they can’t. They want to tell us about how much they are suffering. On the other hand, we used animals for experiments and test to make us live with more luxurious things. We are hurting their soul, therefore we should fight against animals abuse. Every day animals are being killed for experimentation, clothing, and food; this animal abuse must stop.

Every year animals are used in experiments that result in death. Every year, 100 millions of animals die from experimental testing. To control the experiment, scientists lock the animals in small cages. They are left there alone in the dark and cold area with no love and care. They were only taken out when they are needed for the experiment. Because the animals are used as a tool, scientists do not care about how many tears are sacrificed from the animals or how sore their heart is. They only care about whether the experiment is successful. As a result, the animals might be injured in the experiment or worse yet, die. Some of these experiments are conducted to test products like makeup which is not very useful because we don’t depend on makeup to live. During the experiment, scientist put make up such as eye shadow on the animal to test the make up. After doing the experiment, the scientist measured the animal’s skin irritancy and toxicity caused by various substance of the makeup that they were experimenting. After they had the results of the experiment then the animal that sacrificed are not important to them anymore, they just throw away like it’s a piece of useless rubbish. The scientists don’t appreciate the sacrifice of the animal. The animal might be thinking, why? Why do we have to sacrifice just for making humans look prettier and nicer? Additionally, there are also many different kinds of animal abuse going on other in the world other than just having them for experimental testing.

Another form of animal abuse is using animal skin for making luxurious things. Every year over 500 millions animals are killed for fashion. The amount of animal death caused by making clothing are rising each year. Rue McClanahan has once said that “Cruelty is one fashion statement we can all do without”. Rue McClanahan is saying that without using animal’s skin for clothing it won’t effect us much but it can effect the animal’s whole life. They were caught and being separated from their family in a very young age for their skin. Most of their skin are being ripped off while they are still alive. Animals sacrificed because of people’s selfishness for the texture of the clothing and for the fashion of it. Other than using animal’s skin for clothing we can use cloth. Why do we have to use their skin and take their life to make cloths when we have other materials? We shouldn’t disturb the animals because they are innocent, they have their life in the forest and we have ours. Animal’s skin are also used for making rugs. Rugs are used for people in cold places to keep warm and some are just for decorating their house and which causes an animal death. There are other ways to keep warm such as using fire instead of taking an animal’s life. Using animals for experimental test and using animal’s skin were not the only animal abuse.

Many people eat meat everyday which some argue is another form of animal abuse. 750,000,000 fishes are slaughter for food each year just in one country. Can you imagine how much death of animals are there? Would the answer of slaughter in the whole world be Million? Billions? Trillions? Some people catches fish just for the entertainment of it but the fishes are innocent. Fishes lives in the sea and swim freely in there but they were caught by people just for the fun and eat them after they caught it.They do have a life like us humans but why is eating a person sin but eating animals are not sin? In my opinion I think that eating meat are fine but eating meat everyday is not acceptable and its also not healthy because eating too much meat can cause serious gastric problem. Not eating meat everyday can also help people around the world from starving because the require of meat has caused the booming of livestock farming industry. Animals eat crops and we eat them. In America, 5kg of crops are needed to produce 1kg of beef, 7kg of crops are needed to produce 1kg of pork and 2.6kg of crops are needed to produce 1kg of chicken. If we don’t eat meat just for a single day we can save approximately 560 million people around the world from starving. We can eat vegetables to substitute meat then the animals won’t die innocently and it can also save more people from dying of hunger.Why not if this can help save lives? Event like meatless Monday were held in school, offices and other places to stop animal abuse and to be more healthy. For us, not eating meat for one day is not a big deal but for the animals its a day where they can feel safe and free.

Without animal abuse, less animals will be implicated by the innocent. As mentioned before, animals needs our caring and love. They are suffering right now therefore I think that animal abuse is worth fighting for.
