Personal Narrative: Oppression Of Animals
One sunny day my 65 billion brothers and I were eating our way through the jungle of South Africa looking for food when we stumbled among a plantation. A man named Leiningen owned this plantation. Since us ants eat everything in our line of vision it looks like Leiningen might be in some trouble later. Our line of vision was about 2 miles wide and 10 miles long, but My brothers and I marched on and kept eating and eating…..

Well my brothers and I ate our way through the jungle scaring every animal we encountered. The animals ran in the hundreds, running like they all lost their minds. Some animals didn't make it out, I saw my brothers eat a whole pampas stag under 6 minutes, it was covered in ants. At one point it didn't even look like

Well we ate our way through all of Leiningen's crops when we finally made it to Leiningen second line of defence the petrol filled ditch. we did the same thing like last time we used the trees for our defence, we climbed them and got all the leaves to make our way across and make our attack. My fellow brothers starter there way across as Leiningen lit his cigar and threw it in the petrol filled ditch and burn my brothers to their death. Leiningen used half of a tank of petrol he only had 3 tanks, so he could only refill the ditch 4 more times. Realizing this, he thinks to himself that he may lose, or have to find a way to destroy us. When the petrol was gone we run our way across and yet again Leiningen refilled the ditch and lit it and burnt my brother once again. I watched in horror as my brothers burnt to their deaths. Now it was my time to cross after the petrol had burnt away, i was running across along side me was my brothers that survived and we had barely made it across when Leiningen's men refilled the ditch again. We made our way across and LEiningen had a big tall concrete fence surrounding his house. We started crawling up the wall, we could hear Leiningen's men screaming and panicking. We made it over the wall and started eating everything in our way. Leiningen's men were throwing things at us, trying to kill us with brooms, rocks, sticks, Just anything they could find. We continued to eat. Around this time Leiningen decided to make a decision for the sake of his men and plantation. He decided to make a run for the dam and flood the plantation. He got suited up and doused himself in gasoline. We saw him walk out start running towards the dam, my fellow brothers started attacking him but Leiningen kept running. He finally made it to the dam and We had already covered the wheel but he still grabbed it and

    Certainly the ramifications of oppression and absolute authority are outrage and this is conveyed throughout Animal Farm. Old Major tries to convince them that the reason behind their servitude and despair is Man, because Major believes that "Man is the only real enemy [they] have" (Orwell 7). Through expressing his anger, Major criticizes the fact that Man does not lay eggs or give milk, "yet he is the lord of all animals" (Orwell 8). It is clear-cut that the animals are affected by Major's speech which urges them to obtain their freedom. Major's point of view is that "all men are enemies. All animals are comrades" (Orwell 10). From here, the reader can deduce that Old Major represents V. I. Lenin, the leader of the Bolshevic Party that seized…

    “The Evil of Animal ‘Rights’” by Alex Epstein and Yaron Brook addresses the issue of medical testing on animals. The authors describe the dangers of a world without medical testing, as well as the benefits that come of this testing. They discuss the violent nature of protesters, the effect this violence has on the companies and individuals involved in the field, and the ramifications the world would face were these professionals not allowed to further their work. Epstein and Brook strongly support medical testing on animals, however they fail to completely deliver their view due to alienation of their audience.…

    I volunteered at Texas Humane Heroes, a local animal welfare organization that gives a homeless dog or cat a chance of finding home. It is a nonprofit organization that benefits from the involvement of volunteers. This was a very unique experience because I got to work with a lot of different volunteers and staff members. There were different volunteering opportunities from foster volunteering to helping out around the place. I helped around the place with other volunteers. We cleaned the dog and cat cages and washed their bowls. It wasn’t fun to pick up their waste, but we got to play with the puppies and the kittens. We also had to greet customers and inform them about the cats and the dogs that they had up there. In the afternoon, we had to walk the dogs. So many volunteers and I, took the dogs out.…

    I received a call from my son’s uncle, Harold asking if I would give him a ride to a friend’s house to examine some pit bull puppies she had for sale. At first I had planned other activities for the day, but my daughter who overheard the conversation begged me to go. I made the plans to pick him up and as we were getting ready to leave, I reminded my daughter that we were not going for us. I had owned dogs in years past, and after the last one was stolen out of my yard, decided it was too painful to own a dog. Also, I had heard all the horror stories of people having pit bulls around their kids. When we arrived at my friend, Courtney’s house, I heard the deep barking from inside. My friend motioned for us to wait at the front door as she put…

    “Non-violence leads to the highest ethics, which is the goal of all evolution. Until we stop harming all other living beings, we are still savages.” This quote about animal abuse is from Thomas Edison, an engineer known for his life changing innovations that continue to impact on our world today. Animal abuse is a long-debated problem, often causing the world’s population to split into two sides over the dispute. On one side, are those who say that humans are far superior to animals and other living beings who have been put here solely to feed or entertain us. On the other hand, there are those of us who recognise that these “inferior life forms” should have the same rights as us, and so they deserve the same treatment.…

    I was almost labeled a hamster killer. The first pets i got were dwarf hamsters. I went to petsmart with my mom and picked out two hamsters that were supposedly both girls, but one ended up being a boy. One's name was Caesar and the other Felipe. They weren’t always the nicest, but that didn’t make me love them any less. There was this one time that both of my dwarf hamster's got out while i was at school. My mom told me when i got home that she closed the door to my bedroom because they had escaped. I searched everywhere in my room for them. One hamster was under my bed and the other under my sister's bed since we shared a room at the time. Hamsters always find a way to get into the hardest places to find them in. I caught the one under my sisters bed and he was fine. When i went to get the other one out something funny, but sad happened. I have bins with wheels on them that i would roll under my bed and store stuff in. I had to roll the one under my bed out to see where the hamster was because i couldn't find her. So, as im doing this my mom came in the room to see if i had caught them. I was rolling the bin out as i saw something flat squashed on the floor…

    It is hard for me to admit that I'm afraid. Being a black woman in today’s society, I constantly feel the pressure to prove something. The pressure to destigmatize, and rise above—to be better than the ill-gotten images depicted of my race and sex. The pressure to carry the entirety of my race and sex wherever I go, yet still be an individual. Facing all the pressure to become the model “strong independent black woman,” I am hesitant to admit I am afraid because fear is seen as weakness. Picture a horse or deer with their stick-like legs shaking in fright in cartoons—the stark opposite of historically mightier figures like lions or jaguars which portray power and confidence. However, what one may forget is the legs of that horse help pull the weight of 400 pounds, and the body of a dear can annihilate a two-ton vehicle. So fear—or what looks like fear—isn’t always a bad thing.…

    Because animal cruelty has had such a negative impact policy makers have decided to act in favor of protecting our animals. The Animal Welfare Act (AWA), enacted in 1966, protects animal lives as it argues that they are equally as important as humans. The AWA grants the animal the right to positive quality of life while being used for research purposes. The notion of animal rights is “the idea that some, or all, non-human animals are entitled to the possession of their own lives and that their most basic interests—such as the need to avoid suffering—should be afforded the same consideration as similar interests of human beings” (“Animal rights”). As humans, there are certain laws and securities we are afforded to protect us from harm and experimentation.…

    Humans do not own the Earth. Animals are not obligated to provide them any services, despite the objections of many people. Animals are constantly poked, probed, or burned for the benefit of the human race. We are allowed medicines that cure or treat chronic illnesses due to the sacrifices made by animals, yet we treat them with disrespect because we see them as inferior. An Animal Bill of Rights is necessary. Animals should be protected as much as human beings are, because without them we may not even be alive. If an Animal Bill of Rights is the incentive for humans to treat animals with respect, then so be it.…

    For a company that claims to be "pet smart", petSmart has not been making intelligent choices for its' pet care. During a local undercover investigation by PETA, more than a hundred cases of small animals being deprived of necessary veterinary attention were documented. These small animals included lizards, birds, hamsters, and more. When PETA officials wrote an e-mail to a PetSmart executive, Bruce Richardson, he replied with "This particular store has an outstanding pet care team and an exceptional pet care record. No pet that has required a vet has been deprived of that service." One of the PETA members documented this entry in his journal: On October 23, 2006, a hamster in cage 10 in…

    We started hiking through a big pasture in all of our wet, cold kayaking gear. After an hour of walking through the pasture, we ended up walking into the jungle which gets thicker the deeper you go into it. It was a very steep hike and we had to cross over two cliffs where we would have died if we had slipped and fallen. I was at the back of the pack of people trudging through the jungle, so it was very muddy and slippery. All of us were slipping and grabbing anything to stay up, and you would usually be grabbing a thorn vine and tearing up your hand. After two hours of trudging through the jungle, we still could not find the campsite, so we circled back around and found a old abandoned farming cabin to sleep in that night. Everyone on the trip thought we would die in that jungle because it was so dangerous. The next morning we went back down to the kayaks and paddled down the rest of the muddy river to the campsite. The Red Cross came the next day and also we made an appearance on multiple Costa Rican…

    All my life I’ve been told that the world is wrong that there is so much injustice and inequality. But how do I know the world is wrong if I’ve never known it been right?... How do I know the sky blue not violet nor orange nor scarlet? I only know its blue because that is what I’ve be told. All us accept most what we have been told and we rarely questioning why? Why is the world wrong? why is there so much injustice and inequality? Why is sky blue? We have been brought up to accept the ideas of the majority but never fully understanding the truth. While we have differing views of right and wrong but my question can we right those wrongs or do those who suffer injustice and inequality just unlucky?…
