Cruelty To Animals

Cruelty to animals, also known as animal abuse, animal neglect or animal cruelty, is the infliction of suffering or harm by humans upon animals, either by omission (neglect) or by commission. More narrowly, it can be the causing of harm or suffering for specific achievements, such as slaughtering animals for food or entertainment; cruelty to animals is sometimes due to a mental disorder, referred to as zoosadism. Divergent approaches to laws concerning animal cruelty occur in diverse jurisdictions throughout the world. For instance, some laws govern methods of slaying animals for food, clothing, or other products, and other laws concern the keeping of animals for entertainment, education, research, or pets. There are several conceptual approaches to the issue of cruelty to animals. Even though some practices, like animal fighting, are tremendously acknowledged as cruel, not all people or cultures have the similar meaning of what constitutes animal cruelty. Many would claim that docking a piglet's tail without an anesthetic constitutes cruelty. Others would respond that it is a routine technique for meat production to prevent harm later in the pig's life. Additionally, laws governing animal cruelty vary from country to country. Utilitarian advocates argue from the position of costs and benefits and vary in their conclusions as to the allowable treatment of animals. Some utilitarians argue for a weaker approach that is closer to the animal welfare position, whereas others argue for a position that is similar to animal rights. Animal rights theorists criticize these positions, arguing that the words "unnecessary" and "humane" are subject to widely differing interpretations and that animals have basic rights. They say that most animal use itself is unnecessary and a cause of suffering, so the only way to ensure protection for animals is to end their status as property and to ensure that they are never viewed as a substance or as non-living things. I write this as I read a news saying a man torturing a cat and was arrested. To prevent cruelty to animals, public awareness is compulsory to protect the animals. Animals' rehabilitation center should be established. Sentences for jails and fines should be given for those who torturing animals. Dear people, please be humane, be like fictional characters in a film series namely Wicked, Elpaba and Glinda, save the animals from harm. Please...............And thank you.
