aren't always exciting or healthy for the animals. Circuses are the same way exciting for visitors but hell holes for many animals. Animals in zoos and circuses deserve the same rights and protections as animals living in the wild. All animals, not just domestic animals, should be treated humanely. However, many animals in circuses are not treated humanely. This conclusion came from an investigation, into a few circuses in Bolivia, that should the animals were abused. This consequently made…

Animals kept in captivity has been a heated controversy throughout the decades. Whether wild animals should be kept in captivity to be able to protect them from various hazards, while others argue they are inhumane space limiting the freedom the animals deserve. For example SeaWorld Orlando released a film exposing the reality behind the scenes at SeaWorld, from the animal's living conditions to the animal's trainers. This brought attention to the public in 2010 and the subsequent release of the…
Although Kitty criticizes Margaret’s unattractive animalistic nature, Kitty is herself equally animalistic and is represented as a bastardized animal. Nothing short of an anthropomorphized cat, Kitty, bearing her animality in her very name, wails (West 5, 7) and moans (15) incessantly like a mewing cat. In 1916, Edward Forbush described the domestic cat, which can be similarly applied to Kitty, as “the inmate of … humble homes” who has “elegance of form … [and] daintiness of habit” (7). However,…
The human-animal relationship has evolved after a long evolutionary history based upon mutual benefits. Such benefits still exist today, particularly for humans. However, the benefits in modern society go beyond those associated with the animal’s original purpose, which leads to relationship inequalities. This stems from the conflicting interests of humans and animals, where the benefits to one rarely occur without detriment to the other. The fact that these benefits are usually only short term,…

keeping has grown massively over the last couple of years, and many people are wanting these animals over the traditional pets such as dogs and cats. But if the animal becomes too big or if becomes too expensive to feed them, some owners will release them into lakes, parks, and even into the woods. The problem with this is even if it looks like there natural enviroment, it’s not because a lot of exotic animals don’t have any natural predators where they’re released, and if they don’t have any…
Georgia, Armenia, Iran, Palestine, Iraq, Lebanon, Jordan, and Syria in coniferous as well as temperate mixed forests (Harrison and Bates, 1991). As was mentioned, Persian squirrels are a wild species; however, since some people keep them as domesticated animals, their referral to veterinary clinics is on the increase (Khazraiinia et al., 2008). As a consequence, it is required to realize the morphology and physiology of Persian squirrels in order to better manage them in confinement.…
Kelchner discusses how Jack London is famous for his adventure novels and his technique of portraying animals as ‘compelling’ leaders in society. Many contend against his use of this technique, criticizing how it toys with the reader’s emotions. However, the reasons behind London’s use go deeper, reflecting a scientific and philosophical issue: the hereditary correlation between humans and animals. Kelchner then goes into how London’s work incorporates the principles of English naturalist…
