horrific a picture as the above might paint‚ such a scenario cruelly plays out in slaughterhouses around the world. Instances of animal cruelty and inhumane treatment are commonplace‚ yet society for the most part has turned a blind-eye to these misdeeds. Seemingly a dichotomy exists‚ whereby livestock and animals raised for human consumption (Hereinafter “food animals”) are allowed to be treated in ways that would be unthinkable for family pets and other creatures.

Animal Rights versus Human Rights Currently‚ the state of California is going through a severe drought. Almost all of California is in this state of drought‚ with 70% suffering from an “extreme” case of drought. Farmers have very little water for their crops‚ and their methods for getting more water are being blocked. A bill proposing that water be diverted from the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta to provide the much needed water for drought-ridden farms was shot down because it would potentially

Everyone has a right‚ we human begins have a right. So why shouldn’t animal have their rights? Human beings are no different from other animals‚ with no divine or elevated nature which makes us distinct. Human beings are ethically bound not to use other animals for their own selfish purpose. If human beings are no different from other animals‚ then like all other animals is it our nature to kill any other animal which serves the purposes of our survival and well-being‚ for that is the way of all

Animals just like humans are a subject of life and therefore this brings about the issue of them having rights too. And having being a subject of life can be justified by them having as much high levels of complexity as humans and therefore much time is needed for one to study them and to get to understand a whole lot of things about them. This is to say getting to know what their preferences are and what they dislike. Animals are aware of their existence and are therefore conscious and make conscious

studying the traits and dispositions of the lower animals (so-called)‚ and contrasting them with the traits and dispositions of man. I find the result humiliating to me. For it obliges me to renounce my allegiance to the Darwinian theory of the Ascent of Man from the Lower Animals; since it now seems plain to me that the theory ought to be vacated in favor of a new and truer one‚ this new and truer one to be named the Descent of Man from the Higher Animals.

Forget cruelty or animal rights‚ using animals to test our pharmaceuticals is outdated‚ ineffective‚ and a waste of money. New more efficient and cheaper alternatives have been found that could end animal testing for good‚ if only government would take the initiative. It’s frustrating to realize that we could have had better and more effective medication at a lower coast. Some medications that passed animal experimentation have been shown to be much more harmful to humans than the diseases they were
