You Have To Love Something to Say Something
As an animal lover it makes me sick to my stomach to hear thousands of stories happening every year about cases of animal abuse and animal cruelty. I'm not just talking about typical cat and dog cruelty cases, there are also animal abuse and mistreatment cases that many people do not know anything about. These type of people are oblivious of the reality of how evil human beings can actually be. Abused and mistreated animals that are out of our sight will in turn be out of our mind and heart. We have no chance to be aware of abused animals and help them if we don't hear about stories like these in the news. Animals are miraculous creatures that are being mistreated every day. Take orcas at SeaWorld for example. These highly-intelligent animals are taken from their natural environment where they are used to swimming 100 miles of beautiful ocean sea a day with their families and other orcas, and they are separated from their babies and put in the same pool with orcas from other areas and cultures in the world. This leads to acts of violence from one orca to another, as well as taxing their health and causing physical and psychological problems. These psychological problems can lead to the orcas acting-out by injuring and even killing people such as SeaWorld trainers. These types of acts however do not occur when the orcas are in their natural habitat to develop anthropologically well. The life expectancy for an orca in the wild is 70-100 years, while life expectancy for one at SeaWorld is 25-30 years. Orcas social cohesion development exceeds humans! This is shown through their ability to form “pods” which are groups they form with other orcas that share similar characteristics. In these pods orcas can develop their own language that only others in their pod can understand. These pods represent an extension of self-reflection. Another characteristic orcas may exceed humans ability in is
