Causes

   What causes animal abuse? Think about what people like. Most people like money, and they will do whatever they can to get it. For example, dog fighting. Men and women fight their dogs to death for some cash in exchange. Other people have acquired too many animals to take care of and isolate them for days with no attention. Although that may not seem that harmful animals need attention and isolated them is a from of abuse. How would you feel if you sat in a room for a week with no social life? It is not scientifically proven that it these reasons are the cause, but if you look at research and past cases you know that these are the causes. Some countries abuse animals during national festivals or sporting events. Like running of the bulls, and bull fighting in many Spanish speaking countries. Unless people aren't seeing things clearly they won't disagree that abusing animals is completely wrong. Whether abusing animals is part of your life, culture, or religion, it still remains wrong, and needs to be stopped.

Why I Chose My Topic

   I chose the topic animal abuse. In my opinion people don't realize how big of a problem animal abuse really is. First of all the fact that people torture, and beat animals is very inhumane. Then other than beating animals well known companies use animals to test their products on. Over 100 million animals are tested on each year. That is why I chose animal abuse. It is because animals deserve to be treated with similar rights to humans, and just because they can't take someone to court like a human would, it doesn't mean that it is necessary to take out anger and passion on them. For the testings, if you wouldn't use a human to test it on, don't use an animal. People need to start thinking about they actions, and change.
