Remember Harambe the gorilla? Quite a few people were stunned, even outraged, after they heard about his death at the hands of an employee at the Cincinnati Zoo in 2016. A three-year-old boy climbed into the gorilla enclosure and was grabbed and dragged by Harambe, which is what led to his demise. Even though the employee killed the gorilla to save the life of the little boy, millions were infuriated. The reaction to the gorilla’s death was so strong that people were calling for the boy’s parents or the zoo to be held accountable for the death of Harambe. Police even investigated possible criminal charges against the parents. The boy’s mother was also harassed on social media. Our society reacts with horror when we hear about a majestic gorilla …show more content…
We have a cat named Eleanor Rigby and she has been my companion since she was a kitten. We all love her very much and we attempt to ensure that we supply her with the highest-quality existence she can have. Consider that Eleanor has lived her life and she is nearing death. We would take care of her until the end and when she passes we will bury her, but (and this is a struggle to consider) based on the argument of necessity, why would we not consume her? On the grounds that we are not vegetarians then there should be no good reason for us to be repelled by this concept, however I am. It is not about causing Eleanor harm because she would already be dead so she would not be capable of experiencing pain. We would not be capable of eating our beloved pet due to the fact that we were raised as speciesist and this lifestyle is all that we have ever known. I cannot fathom the concept of eating my cat after her death out of necessity, however I have no problem consuming other animals which are viewed by our society as consumption animals. Therefore, Singer has given me a few, quite strong, motives to re-examine my treatment of non-human
In John Steinbeck’s novella, Of Mice and Men, a ranch hand named Carlson addresses a fellow ranch hand, Candy, regarding his old dog, “He’s [Candy’s dog] all stiff with rheumatism. He ain’t no good to you, Candy. And he ain’t no good to himself.” (Steinbeck 44). Candy’s dog is ancient and Candy and the dog live on a ranch during the Great Depression. It would be a hard life for anyone, especially for an old dog with an even older owner. The dog was falling apart at the seams; near blind, no teeth, and ached every time he stood. I’d imagine life loses meaning at that point, the dog wasn't enjoying life and probably hadn’t for years. Carlson, the ranch hand also states in regard to Candy’s dog, “Can’t eat, can’t sleep, can’t walk without hurtin’.” (Steinbeck 47). Dogs are, by nature happy creatures and this dog was anything but happy. Naturally,this dog would have died long ago and honestly, it was the best option at this point for the dog. You know what people alway say, quality over quantity and at this point the quality of his life was

... the gorillas are taken away from their family and are living in captivity. It is still important to study primates in-depth, and a solution to the ethical issues may be to breed primates within the conservatory.

Ever since the fall, mankind has had a voracious desire for power and influence. People witness this desire within the walls of the Capitol Building when the media exposes backroom deals. It also springs up whenever a politician uses a podium to persuade people that he makes the world work. Politicians possibly rely on persuasion because they crave the power. However, persuasion is a manipulative, unBiblical tactic of forcing others to accept a point of view by all means necessary.
I am a student at Churchill middle school, and I am writing to you regarding the current issue of the Endangered status of the Red Panda. It would be very disappointing if this animal were to go extinct but there are still ways this animal could be saved and we could use your help to do so.
Animals should not be held captive in zoos because it is inhumane and unfair to the animals. There are so many records of terrible things that have happened to animals in zoos over the past few centuries, the go under the radar too often. Too few people even know about these animal care atrocities, and therefore the New York Times decided to bring light upon this situation. The Times did a first-of-its-kind analysis of 390 elephant fatalities at accredited U.S. zoos over the past 50 years (Berens 3). It found that most of the elephants died from injury or disease linked to conditions of their captivity, from chronic foot problems caused by standing on hard surfaces to musculoskeletal disorders from inactivity caused by being penned or chained for days and weeks at a time.
Most Australians enjoy a snag from the barbie, or a Parma from the local pub, but do you know how bad meat and animal products can be for your overall health and the environment? World meat free day was first introduced in 2015 by the United Nations, however has been present in the media during June 2017, where the topic arose of “should Australia be encouraging more meat free days?”. The organisation aims to raise awareness of the impact meat production has on the world, and pledges individuals to skip consuming meat for just one day. Today I hope to change at least one of your opinions on the consumption of meat, and hopefully limit the amount of meat consumed by the population of this classroom. Today, I will be discussing the benefits of reducing meat consumption on individuals, the environment and the animals.
Argumentative Speech “It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the Universe going.” (Stephen Hawking). Evolution versus Creation is a debate going on since Charles Darwin first sparked the idea in his origin of species. Evolution is the theory that life started off as bacteria; Creation is the belief that a god or a group of gods created the Earth and life as it is present day.
