The motive may be to shock, threaten, intimidate, or offend others or to demonstrate rejection of society's rules.

Others see harming an animal as a safe way to get revenge against—or threaten—someone who cares about that animal.” (The Humane Society of the United States, 2017) This states that there are reasons why people do what they do to the animals but it still doesn’t give them the right to harm or mistreat them.

There are many types of animals used for entertainment such as circuses, dog fighting, zoos, and rodeos. All of these types of entertainment are not natural for these animals which is a form of abuse. Often times they are wild animals that don’t belong in cages and are not able to do things that are in their instinct to do. This is especially true about zoos and circuses.

People should only support animal free circuses and raise awareness how animals are abused for entertainment.

It is against the law to be cruel to animals or even one’s own pets. It is called animal abuse or neglect. Some research shows that animal abuse is happening all over the world.
