Why is animal abuse so common?
Animal abuse is very common because most people think that animals are helpless and you can do anything to them. You get mad at them, so you throw them. They claw you, so you cut them. Animal abuse is wrong. Some people think that animal abuse is nothing, but it is indeed not nothing. People think that since the animal can't do anything, they can take control over them and hit them, put them in illegal animal fights where they are often killed or kill them themselves. People who cause animal abuse or horrid people, they do go to jail where they belong. Imagine if you were abusing an animal, now think if you were the animal being abused, you wouldn't like it either. Animals should die of old age, not of being abused.
