the face of animal testing. Unfortunately “according to the John Hopkins Center for Alternatives to Animal Testing, scientists say we simply do not yet understand the complexities of the human body well enough to be able to design suitable non-animal alternatives”(Shany 85). This means millions of animals will be killed in the years to come, but hopefully we take the time to find a safe alternative. Once an alternative becomes available, we will be able to reduce the number of animals killed each

The current UK animal welfare legislations and their objectives are: ¬ Animal Welfare Act 2006 This Act has for the first time introduced legislation for pet owners meaning that the owners have a legal duty of care to meet the five welfare needs of their pets.

-I came across you, a Norwegian bloodhound; you were an animal when you came to me, (let alone a pet); abused, you were full of hate and violence enough not to love. However, I showered you with affection and love: you showed confliction and hate. I came across you were broken, but I still tried to make you whole. You growled and grunted at me, while I laughed with joy. You finally accepted me for me as I did you. I know it was hard for you to commit to me as you did to your abusive owner. I saw

What I think the difference is between the two is that Animal welfare is when you have the right to take care of an animal but you also have to take into consideration that you have to feed the animal whether it is a dog or cat. You also have to provide shelter for the animal and make sure that the animal stay health and your not abusing it. I believe that animal rights means that you don’t have the right to own an animal or companion because you won’t provide it shelter and you it will not the be

After a state of the art breakthrough at a scientific laboratory, several tested animals became capable of human intellectual capabilities and emotions. During an unseen event, they escape the facility, no longer remaining hostage as test experiments. Ten years pass and now the roles have reversed. These super hybrid animals are now the top of the food chain and humans are their pawns. In a reversal of roles, zoos now hold humans in depicted natural environments and local grocery and department

can be improved upon. The Animal Welfare act encompasses only a handful of species. It excludes cold-blooded animals, as well as farmed animals raised for food and fiber or used in agricultural research (Cows, pigs, etc.). Neavs.org concludes, “less than 10% of animals in labs are covered by the AWA (dogs, cats, nonhuman primates—such as chimpanzees and monkeys—guinea pigs, hamsters, rabbits, and other warm-blooded animals), the law sets minimum standards for housing, feeding, handling, veterinary

Humane Animal Welfare Society (HAWS), there is one in Waukesha. It began in 1965. If you donate, it will help the animals get food and find a home. The society takes care of them and gives them shots and/or sprays them if they need to. It is only 26 minutes away and 14.4 miles away from Muskego. HAWS is also a no kill shelter. All of the animals stay till they get home. Did you know that 56 billion animals are killed each year, but HAWS is a no kill shelter and they welcome 8,000 animals each year

is way of life. We take pride in raising animals, treating them with respect and care. Some people have animals who have a end product that requires the animal to give it’s life so we can feed ourselves. After hours of taking care of animals we harbor a great amount of respect for the animals. Farmers put their heart and soul into raising animals. People show their animals at events to be judge on quality, to learn, and develop friendships with fellow animal enthusiast. Yet there are people who see

Many scientists claim that without animal testing, medical breakthroughs and research would not have progressed to where it is today. Some people claim that animals do not have rights and mankind naturally has dominion over them, making it acceptable to use them for scientific experimentation. This is simply not true. Animals can feel pain. They can suffer. One critic of animal testing maintains that pain is an intrinsic evil, and any act that causes pain in any other creature is morally wrong (Andre)
