500 million animals are subjected to inhumane experiments in the name of scientific research (Linzey, 2013). Evidence to support the practise of vivisection is confronting and highly criticised. However, it is essential society apply careful consideration in regard to the positive ground-breaking outcomes of these experiments and the encouraging positive impacts they have on human life. Nonetheless, rationalization is warranted for inflicting unnecessary treatment to innocent animals who cannot

humans. Which is why I think researchers need to use their research, resources, and funding to more promising research projects rather than testing animals on research we’ve already discovered — such as the effects of smoking and how it can shorten the average humans lifespan.

As I'm writing this, and as you are reading this, thousands of animals are dying. In the one minute it takes you to read this paragraph, 19,000 animals will be killed in the United States alone-so that humans can eat them (ASPCA). Thousands more are waiting their turn in line. Some of them are squealing, squawking, or bellowing and straining and fighting for their lives. Others are terrified but too dejected, weak, and injured to fight. But each of them-every single one of them-is feeling something

BACK GROUND OF THE STUDY There are many different reasons why individuals abuse animals. Animal cruelty covers a wide range of actions (or lack of action), so one blanket answer simply isn't possible. Each type of abuse has displayed certain patterns of behavior that we can use to help understand more about why people commit the crimes we encounter today. Animal cruelty is often broken down into two main categories: active and passive, also referred to as commission and omission, respectively
