Animals rights need to be protected! For the last many years, animal rights activists have demanded that animals be given equal rights with humans, and condemn the use of animals for research.

Animal rights is a topic that needs to be addressed because animals cannot defend themselves. As apart of the society today I would like to spread the word on stopping all types of animal abuse.

Animals, not only humans, have the capacity to suffer and feel pain. I strongly believe a quote said by President Barack Obama, "I think how we treat our animals reflects how we treat each other."

Animals are bullied, yet have no voice.

I would like to speak out for those animals and to the community on helping spread the word and stop animal cruelty.
