The US needs to ban this ASAP.

“Declawing involves amputating the first knuckle on a feline’s toes in order to ensure the claw can not grow anymore. This procedure has been banned in 42 countries, including England, France, and Germany, however has yet to be banned in more than 2 U.S states” #39canimals

Horses should not be slaugtered. This is terrible.

[Adryan Isaac Macias @MaciasAdryan]

“The most logical solution to this problem would be to completely ban horse slaughter not only in America, but globally as well where the demand for this market persists.” #39canimals

[James @JamesM6174]

Declawing should totally be illegal.

[Mack🍂🌻 @LoughMackenzie]

“Criminalizing declawing would involve forbidding veterinarians from being able to offer the surgery and Americans who chose to declaw their cat illegally will be financially penalized. This exact practice is already in effect in many countries, such as Israel, where

This is terrible.

Pedigree dog breeding is controversial and needs to be addressed due to the detrimental physical effects on the quality of life that dogs have. #39canimals

[James @JamesM6174]

That would be terrible.

[KennyZ7 @KennethZamudio9]

“Raccoons, cats, rabbits, and chickens would also be used as bait in the training of fighting dogs”. #39canimals

This is terrible. Dog's aren't meant to be accessories.

"The health problems these dogs [brachycephalic breeds] experience range from breathing difficulties, skin infections, digestive issues, spinal abnormalities, etc. (Fawcett 1)." #39canimals

[James @JamesM6174]

This is terrible.

[James @JamesM6174]

This needs to change.

[Alice Chen @yixuac10]

The adoption of animals cannot be based on financial incentives, which is a huge amount of work for animal protection as well as rescue. Therefore, the root cause of the phenomenon needs to be addressed. Find more information in "American Wild Horse Campaign" #39canimals

This is terrible.

[Alice Chen @yixuac10]

In order for horses to win races, some bookmakers, trainers, and even riders are taking a physical or psychological toll on horses in a number of ways. So I appeal to more people to pay attention to this phenomenon and try to save the lives of more horses. #39canimals

[James @JamesM6174]

This is great.

[Alice Chen @yixuac10]

A Wyoming resolution calling for the resurrection of wild horse slaughter has died in the Senate Agriculture Committee.

Animals, no matter what species, are individuals with a sense of life and autonomy. They should not be slaughtered or abused by humans at will. #39canimals

I learned that dogs possess the ability to understand and solve means-end relationships.

I learned that dogs can use a mirror as a problem-solving tool.

I learned that puppy mills are the leading cause as to why shelters are over populated.

I learned that topic sentences being argumentative is a key component in argumentative writing.

The International Society for Animal Rights reports that purchasing puppies from puppy mills “perpetuates the vicious cycle by encouraging more breeding” as it provides more profit for the puppy mill owners to continue their business.

HSUS reports that violators of the Animal Welfare Act are rarely fined or suspended and that repeat offenders are often able to renew their licenses multiple times to continue operations of puppy mills.

Humane Society reports that there are many “inefficiencies and loopholes in the” Animal Welfare Act which is designed to protect animals by regulating facilities such as puppy mills.

What is truly revelational, is that the USDA actually initially promoted puppy mills as they advertised it to be a “lucrative and fail proof business.”
