Animals have rights too.

Good day one and all. I am here to speak a few words about animal rights. Just like us human beings,
animals also have their rights. After all, aren't human beings animals too? Often people do not realize
that they have the right to live here peacefully just like us, because they are of a lower rank species than
us. We are all familiar with how animals are being tortured for the gains of humans.

Many animals are being tortured in labs for experiments and in places like zoos and circuses to entertain
people; they are being killed for food, put in horrible environments, and made to suffer. Experiments on
animals should be banned. They should not be used for breeding and selling. They should not be killed
for food, medicine, or clothes. The use of animals like donkeys, elephants, etc for heavy labor should be
stopped. The hunting of animals should be put to an end. Using them as entertainment in zoos, circuses,
and other places should be abolished. We must know that human and mammal animals have so much in
common, including biological complexity, consciousness, and awareness.

They know what is happening to them. They also have likes and dislikes and make conscious choices.
The quality and length of life matter to them just like us. So next time you think of hurting them, know
that you are basically hurting a human who deserves all the rights to live in peace. Animals are not put
on earth to be slaves to humans or serve humans. All of us are put here with the same purpose, to
survive. It is ethically and morally wrong to put them to harm. Just like us, animals do have their own
families. They socialize with other animals. They have to provide for their family and feel pain and
sadness when they lose their family or herd member, just like us.

Try to think from their perspective. Even if you adopt or buy animals, do not treat them as your slaves.
Try to include them as a family and treat them with respect. Give them love, good food, and adequate
shelter. Do not try to remove animals that live in the forests from their natural habitats. They are
designed to live in the forests and may not be able to survive elsewhere. Even if they do, they will be
living a life of misery. So be compassionate and have moral ethics.

It is high time we address such issues as many animals are being endangered and extinct because of
human activities. Just because they cannot speak and react as humans do, it doesn't mean they cannot
feel the pain of cruelty that is being done to them. Just like us, they too have feelings, emotions, pain,
and a need for socialization. We must try our best not to harm them. Let them get the peace and right
to life they deserve. All animals have rights irrespective of their rank of species.
We also must consider other important living things in this world. Billion farm animals are killed every
year by humans. They say the only solution to this is to become vegan. Animals don't have voices, so it is
up to us to give them a voice and fight for their rights. The most common cruelty done to animals is
physical abuse. Many of that happen in Malawi. Donkeys there suffer from wounds because of
whipping. There is a fact about animal cruelty that I found in Google that this reference I saw states that
more that 50% of the fur in the US comes from China, where millions of dogs and cats are often raised to
death and skinned alive for fur. Thousands of greyhound’s die each year in the name of selective
Breeding before they ever touch a racetrack.Allof the fishwe eat suffered gruesome deaths. They tend to
die suffocation where others go through agenizing decomposition when they are hauled to the surface
and their eyes and internal organs explode. Cows are exploited for their milk. Cows should only produce
milk when they give birth but humans force them by impregnating them each year and the calves will be
separated from their mother right after birth.
