     Animals are not ours to harm and abuse just because we can. They are not our playthings, but sentient beings in their own right. In the United States, people often say that they love animals and that they consider their pets to be part of their family, but many draw the line at animal rights. Isn’t it enough that we treat them humanely? For animals, having rights is everything. If animals have their rights they would not be trapped, beaten, caged, transported, harmed or killed. By granting animals rights, the sum of suffering in the world would reduce dramatically.The Department of Agriculture issued the 1966 Animal Act even animals used in commercial farming are entitled to a certain base-level of treatment.
