Animal Injustice
*Bang Bang* The lion looks behind him, and sees the source of the loud shots. He begins tearing through the wild grasses that slap him in his golden brown muzzle and tickle his brown paws. Heavy steps follow the lion as he begins to put on speed. He leaps over a fallen tree and clips his claw on a sharp piece of hidden rock. *bang, bang, BANG*. The lion feels an extreme shooting pain in his shoulder that is so intense it causes him to loose his stride and stumble to the ground. Unable to run any further, the lion knows he will have to face his attacker. He gets to his paws hesitantly and roars a challenge. Blood drips on the floor beneath him. He thinks about his pride, his cubs, and his mates. …show more content…
Poaching, and other forms of animal cruelty, should be illegal in all parts of the world. To completely get rid of animal injustice, we need to focus more on hunting and abuse, the state of enclosures, and habitat reduction.
(claim;NEED TO STOP HUNTING) We have long passed the age where we needed to hunt live prey to survive the cold, hungry winters. In the modern world, food is available at the touch of a button. We can walk less than two minutes away from our houses and get a full meal with using little to no energy, or type in a few words and have a steaming, cheesy pizza delivered to our doorsteps. So why is it that poachers continue to breach reservations and kill off endangered animals to extinction? "Extinction is a natural phenomenon, it occurs at a natural "background" rate of about one to five species per year. Scientists estimate we 're now losing species at 1,000 to 10,000 times the "background" rate, with dozens going extinct every day..." (www.dosomething.org). The answer is: sport and money.

They claim that animals have no souls or emotions, so killing and torturing them is humane. Yet there have been countless examples to show that this isn’t true. Elephants who have lost their family members were grieving and omitting mournful tones. A dog who 's 'best friend ' was killed, stood by them until help arrived. Animals do deserve our respect. They have saved humans ' lives before. There have been numerous accounts of dolphins rescuing people who have been shipwrecked and protecting them from sharks. A lion had protected a young girl from rapists for 3 days. There was a dog in the military that could sense bombs and enemy helicopters at least 20 minutes ahead before they arrived, saving thousands of lives. Another dog had attempted to alert a family when their daughter had been kidnapped in the middle of the night by a stranger. Animals have saved us many times, and yet we still say that they don 't deserve our respect? Rescue dogs save lives and track down missing people. Horses are used for entertainment, as well as tigers, lions, elephants, and ponies. Snake venom is used for remedies, and we even use insects to color and flavor our food. The least we could do is stop hunting and maintain the few species that we have
