Increased awareness regarding animal cruelty would benefit society, pet owners, and animals themselves. When a problem is identified, it becomes easier to work out solutions. Animal cruelty is an issue on a global scale; animal torture and neglect does not only exist in the United States. Animal cruelty is the “crime of inflicting physical pain, suffering or death on an animal, usually a tame one, beyond necessity for normal discipline. It can include neglect that is so monstrous (withholding food and water) that the animal has suffered, died or been put in an imminent

. As seen in the video, an oyster’s ability to filter feed gives them the helpful ability to clear up murky waters. In the experiment, the oysters started reducing the turbidity of the water within minutes of being placed in the tank. Although these result would most likely not occur this quickly on the large scale, in is indisputable that the oysters would reduce the turbidity of the water; allowing the plants to photosynthesize once again.

Despite the fact that animal crush videos are illegal, Stevens still participated in the unlawful selling of these videos which depicted animal abuse via the form of dogfighting.

To passers-by it looks like a normal shed, run by normal people. But inside this “normal shed” is a scene so horrific, it beggars belief that it has been legalised. Inside, cages upon cages of dogs are kept in squalid conditions, with barely any human contact. Puppies are wrenched away from their mothers at birth and are kept alone with only each other for company. Disease and illness are rife, leaving the dogs in pain and discomfort, and, in some cases this can lead to death. This hellish scene is disgustingly designated a puppy farm.

Despite the new discoveries in medicine whether it is a new vaccine or antibiotic, the most basic components for disease prevention and death in humans depends on a good nutrition and access to clean water. The RX for Survival: Back to the Basics video depicts how both an inadequate nutrition and malnutrition can impaired a child’s physically and developmentally. It is estimated that over 100 million children in the world are undernourished and causing the death of more than “one third” of the children (WHO). Furthermore, the consumption of contaminated water, which carries disease organism, exacerbates the mortality rate among children.

Over there, dogs aren’t treated as pets, they are treated as we treat our livestock. My question to you is: Who are we, as Americans, allowed to change people’s culture just because we don’t like what they are eating? Every year, millions of dogs are put down for numerous reasons and disposed of, creating a problem for the ecology of the United States. Instead of just disposing of the meat, why not use it? If Americans were more open minded to try new things then it could serve as an alternative.

Maple Hills Elementary School (MHES), a K-8 school in a rural farming community in the Midwest, is facing a changing landscape involving culture, language, and traditional approaches to special education. Historically, the community was predominately White, with German and English heritage, native English speakers, and identify as Protestant Christians dating back generations. However, through two recent waves of immigration influx, the community’s diversity has broadened. The first wave brought transient immigrants from Mexico and the Dominican Republic who were drawn to farm work and construction. Many parents in these families had minimal previous formal schooling. The second wave of immigration brought physicians and other professional personnel when a large regional medical center was built. Alternatively, these families had quite high levels of formal schooling and worked middle and upper-middle class jobs. The Maple Hills’ historically homogenous community structure has ultimately been altered from the immigration waves.

Animals are beaten and abused on a daily basis due to barbaric individuals. Whether it be from harmful intentions or pure negligence most cases go unreported. “Deliberate cruelty may involve beating, shooting, stabbing animals, or setting them on fire. Neglect is not giving a necessary food, water, shelter, or vet care” (Human Society). The lack of attention and care for these animals can often lead to severe, and sometimes irrevocable damage. The Animal Legal Defense Fund, ALDF for short, website tells of one story where neighbors of a farm complained to the local humane society, “that the Colliers were neglecting many animals on their farm, including dogs and horses. When they went to their property to investigate, they discovered dogs and horses in several states of neglect and starvation and seized them out of concern for their immediate health”(ALDF). Sadly, however, it can become much worse for animals. Owners will sometimes purposefully abuse their animals. Unfortunately, occurrences like these are hardly uncommon. One such example, from the RSPCA of England, the Royal

Coming from a family, that has a dog and donates to different causes each year and has donate to the ASPCA in the past. It's mind numbing to think that someone could commit cruel and inhumane acts, such as using dogs. Then tries to put it on family members or friends, claiming that he did own the house, but he had no knowledge of what was going on since he was supposedly never there. It's astounding that he even said that, if a person owns a house, its typically implied that you know whats going on at your house, so that whatever you spent on said house, doesn't go in the trash. I am an avid dog lover and if my dog would ever be used for something like this, I seriously don't know what I would do. It's irritating to even think about. The reputation

In the late 1800’s and early 1900’s there were a lot of things going on in the United States. New laws were being formed about child labor, women started standing up for themselves and demanding tights and just in general people started to realize that if they wanted something to change that they had to speak up to make a difference. As cities became more crowded, people started to look for peace in their chaotic lives. Before this time period, not many people valued the true beauty of the western United States and all of its beautiful scenery.

Almost everyone loves the sight of animals, or at least one in particular. We do not mean to think down on animals or take superiority over them, but it is the truth, it happens. Even though it should not happen, it does. Animals and humans should be equal in rights and superiority. We should also stop treating them as if all animals are pets because in reality, wild is wild. Feeding animals as if they are pets, just to get close to them, is

The creation of Mount hope came like many asylums, the intention of creating a caring environment to help nurture and heal the mentally ill. At first, the mental asylum did that, but later became a cruel institution where patient care went on a serious decline.

There are many different things that fall under the category of “cruelty”, neglect and abuse being the two main subcategories. The most common type of animal abuse involves dogs, Pit-bulls in particular. In 2007, of 1800 media-reported cases of animal cruelty, 64% (1,126) involved dogs, 18% (337) involved cats, and 18% (337) involved other animals. Some of the most common places where animal abuse occur are, in no particular order: fur farms, dog fights, laboratories, races (both Greyhound and horse), slaughterhouses, and puppy mills. Some less thought of forms of animal abuse are crush videos, traditional Chinese medicine, the cat/dog meat trade in Asia, the ivory trade, trophy hunting, and even shock collars. Abandonment is the leading form of animal cruelty. (See illustration.)
