Kelsey C. Wheel Forgot my E-Mail: magestickelso15 it's a yahoo adress. Thanks!

To mak a comment on Krista Dawn A.'s comment: If you believe animals have the same rights, do you believe they have the mental capacity and emotional ability, same as humans? Supposedly, animals live in the NOW and don't care about the past or future. So, I would say yes, they NEED Rights, but of their own. Hey could not function ith the same as us. It's absurd. We need to give them SPECIALIZED Rights, that suit each species correctly. It's too hard to generalize animals into one Law System, or Program!
2/18/2008
Kelsey C. Wheel To be honst, I do agre that these animals ae being ill-treated and used wrongly. I understand that it hurts them, but I can also understand WHY the media took those risks. Fortunately for animals today, trainers are cheked out BEFORE their animals can be used. Yes, some tasks are unnatural, but some are as natural as can be. The hard part is teaching them to do this on command! I may no be a certified Animal Trainer, but I plan to be and I am persuing my Animal Behaviorsit degree, as well as my PhD in Veterinary Science. Please, Mr. D'Silva, I would LOVE to talk to you about this matter. If you could, email back so I can understand a little more. Also, why, if it is such a 'fact' that these animals are abused, can I not see any work cited? No back up, no article. THere is NO facts there until you can back it up by say, quoting an Animal Health specialist, someone who knows FOR SURE, that an Elephant cannot naturally do these things, or can we see pictures of PROOF, not just clips from this movie, that those animals were seriously sacrificed? Word gets around, doesn't make it true. So technically this is your OPINION. All of it! 2/18/2008
meagan :) stop it,
its bad.
it hurts them alot. and your stupid to abuse animals.
i love animals alot.
they're so cute.
all you people who hurt them, get a life.
stop and realize what your doing.

B Number 1-Ariana Raitis elephants in stuff was so random and I LOVE ANIMALS 2/8/2008
Krista Dawn A. Heres Some Info ::::

Hello Fellow Students Of Mrs. Andersons Class. Each Day There Are Between 1 – 100 000 Animals Killed In Canada. Animals have rights just like humans. They shouldn’t be tortured and abused. Any Animal Deserves The Protection Of The State, Just Like You And Me.

When You Get An Animal Don't You Think I Love Him Or Her So Much? Well Then Why Should You Just Stand Around? I Think We Shouldn’t, I Think We Should Learn More That's Why I Am Talking To You Today About It.

Animal Abuse Is Inhuman Don't You Think? I Don't Understand How Someone Could Hurt/Kill And Animal, A Living Thing. It Makes Me Cry Sometimes When I Read Stories And See On TV. About People Cutting Ears Off Dogs and Lighting Cats on Fire and Other Sick Gross Things. It’s Horrible and I Can’t Believe People Do Things Like That.


Sometimes you wouldn’t even realize it. Animal abuse could be happening right down your street and you wouldn’t even notice it. Animal cruelty is often broken down into two main categories: active and passive.


Examples of neglect are starvation, dehydration, parasite infestations, allowing a collar to grow into an animal’s skin, not good shelter in extreme weather conditions, and failure to seek veterinary care when an animal needs medical attention.

Roy D'Silva I think it's disgusting and animals deserve the right to be treated like human beings. 2/6/2008

AlexusMilligan I think that animal cruelty is wrong because animalsshould be treated the way you want to treated 2/5/2008
Megan Evenson People should take care of their animals like they would a child. They also have fellings they can fell all diferent things just like us.
People should teach them that if you hurt an animal it's just like hurting your own child and its not good you could be reported.
