Laws
Animal rights are the rights of animals, claimed on ethical grounds, to the same humane treatment and protection from exploitation and abuse that are accorded to humans.
What are the laws for Animal Rights?
The Animal Welfare Act is a series of laws made to protect animals.
1970~ This law states that animals would not be tested on for any reason.
1976~ A law that states there is to be no fighting, handling, or transportation of animals.
1970~ This law states that animals would not be tested on for any reason.
1985~ This law went over the law in 1970 stating that if animals are to be tested on there must be someone who does not work for/with the people testing on the animal must be present at the time of testing.
1990~ This law protects animals from their previous owners five days after the owner puts the animal in the shelter and from the dealers selling them.
2002~ This law excludes mice rats and birds from the protection of testing but still requires a report on the animals.
2008~ Keeps animals from being demonstrations for medical equipment and ended the use of animals from Class B dealers.
Animal rights. Animals are living and breathing same as us. …show more content…
It's against the law, yet people still do it. Why? Is a question I have yet to find the answer to. In 1976, a law was passed under the Animal Welfare Act, stating that there would not be any fighting, handling, or transportation of animals. You would think people would listen, yet not many don’t. “42.092 Texas Constitution and Statutes,” states that any cruelty including abandoning, pain, suffering, torture, etc, etc is against the law. That if caught doing so the person will pay fines and/or go to jail depending on how bad it is. In my opinion they should be given no mercy, animals can’t exactly defend themselves if they are beaten and starved they have no
