For millions of years‚ some animals have been dying out and other species have been appearing. The animals that died out‚ like the dinosaurs‚ may have done so because of sudden changes in the world’s climate‚ or because other species appeared that could hunt them or beat them in the competition for food. Tigers are among the animals that are endangered in Asia.

Tilikum‚ the largest male orca in captivity‚ alone has killed three people and been involved in other accidents (Blackfish). Captivity alters animal’s behavior and as a consequence human lives our lost. “Zoochois” can be a result of abnormal and self-destructive behavior seen in these animals because of their living conditions.

Major uses some techniques of propaganda in his speech to the animals - he identifies humans as the enemy‚ and attempts to unite them all against this common enemy. He promises that their lives will be better and easier if they do what he suggests and overthrow the humans.

for human use on animals. My speech today is about animal testing and I am against it. Animal testing is testing cruelty more than science. Animals are not treated well and are often abused by their handlers. Imagine‚ living in a confined space with other animals‚ some insane‚ some infested with diseases as a result of experiments‚ limited movements‚ having people rub burning products onto you‚ watching your every move‚ that’s not a way to live. That’s no way to live. Animals will be held down

At this very moment somewhere‚ far or not too far from us‚ there is an animal being held captive and raid out of its wild natural habitat. It’s also a fact to say that during these actions of captivity to slavery animals suffer extraneous torture‚ discomfort‚ fear and in a lot of cases food deprivation leading to agonizing deaths.
