Animal Abuse
By: Cody

Did you know that twelve out of twelve people say something should be done about animal abuse? Animal abuse happens where ever people and animals co-exist or when people and animals are together. Animal abuse is most likely to happen when the owner of the animal gets angry or frustrated about something. People usually abuse animals because they think its cool or fun to watch the animal suffer or live with pain.

Most animal abuse is physical including beating, chocking, throwing, starvation, torture, kicking, hanging, drowning, stabbing, etc. Another way people abuse animals is by tying them to the back of a vehicle and dragging them around at high speeds. Many people are debating whether horse slaughter is abuse or not.

People all over the world abuse animals and others try to stop it. One animal may be abused for a short period of time or even years! A friend said, “People who abuse animals should be locked up in a cage just like their animals.” Some animals don’t survive this abuse but the ones that do usually have a happy ending!

That's very dumb people would kill animals. I just don't understand why people would try to kill an animal!!!!!! People are very dumb for that- I just don't understand.
If you wanted an animal you wouldn't want to kill them, it's JUST DUMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Animals are so cute! We all love them. People need to be trapped up in jail for abusing animals, they should be sentenced for life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is really sad. I feel people should get arrested for abusing animals. They are stupid for animals abuse . One day I saw a horse being abuse and it was so skinny too. I called animal control but to my surprise they didn't do anything about it. They just gave a warring to them even though the big dog was in a very small cage . That was so sad to see.

Animal abuse is very unnecessary. It is cruel. I definitely think horse slaughter is abuse. There is always a need for a horse, whether it is being a show horse, or being a pasture pal. Animal abuse is very wrong and anybody who abuses their animals should be locked up! Animal abuse is NOT cool. I really hate animal abuse. It is wrong, pointless, and cruel. If you do that, you should be sent to jail. Animal abuse needs to be stopped. I don’t see why animal abuse could even be considered cool. Stop animals abuse now! It is pointless and cruel.

It is really sad that people have to be stupid and cruel when abusing animals because they think it's either fun and entertaining. Its kind of like WOW you really need to abuse an animal for your own entertainment?! I cant even believe some sick person could do this to a helpless Innocent animal. If people are going to abuse animals, why do they even have them, I mean if they are really going to get that mad at the animal why not just get rid of it. Some people think that animals can just survive anything so they can just put them in the worst conditions. This article is really sad but really opens your eyes on what is really happening to abused animals. Do they honestly think it's funny to put animals in pain and torture. Watching them suffer. How can people even live with themselves? I know for a fact that my dogs have never got hit at our house! If i ever hit or beat my dog, I would feel awful instantly. So I am not really sure how people even can watch their animals suffer from this.

How could somebody hurt a pressious little animal. They are to cute. What did the animals do to these people. The people that hurt animals must be physocitic. Michael Vick is an example and he should be in jail longer. He made animals suffer and now he should be suffering.
