Although animals are known to be able to live on their own for a minimum of two weeks, no animal should have to fight for the right to survive.

including the way animals are treated in factory farms. For many years factory farming has been part of life, which perhaps have led humans to be ignorant when it comes to factory farming because people so not want to admit that animals have feeling and emotions. Animals suffer their entire lives in both factory farms and slaughterhouses, animals are kept in small cages and pens with no access to the outside world.

He then explains through personal anecdotes and personal reflections
“I wouldn’t say it is dysfunctional,” Weaver told me. “More like it is functioning very well for the companies and their executives only, and very poorly for farmers and consumers.” The animal welfare issue is a bit complicated. Chickens raised for meat roam within a barn, so while conditions are grim, these chickens are at least better off than egg-laying hens crowded into tiny cages. I’m also struck that less than 5 percent of the meat chickens

Animal Rights In the beginning of time our creator created animals. Animals were made before any man was created. God created all animals, big and small. You would think animals would be treated with respect by humans. Laws have been put into place to protect all of the creatures from dogs to bunnies to chickens. The Animal Welfare Act that was signed on August 24, 1966, is the only law in the United States that regulates the treatment of animals in research, exhibition, transport and dealers. This

Animal Rights and Animal Welfare? Two totally different things; one implies that animals should have the equality of humans, and the other implies that animals must be treated with respect, and cared for properly.

These animals are given no form of a pain reliever and are forced to suffer. Why would you do this to any living being? Thousands of animals are killed yearly because of this. Animals hurt too, why do we need to test on them? A helpless rabbit or mouse is suffering. No one wants to suffer,
Animal welfare assessment has been based on the five freedoms1 concept. This considered negative aspects of mental state (fear and stress) and the compromise of physical domains (nutrition, environment, health, behavior), but did not take into account any positive states [1].
