In the early 1900s and before, animals were often viewed primarily as property or resources, with little regard for their welfare. They were commonly used for labor, transportation, and food, and many lived in harsh conditions. Animal rights and welfare movements began to emerge during this time, but widespread societal change regarding the treatment of animals took longer to develop. Overall, the prevailing attitude was largely utilitarian, with minimal legal protections for animals.
