Animal Rights and Abuse

Fake fur is a type of textile fabric fashioned to simulate genuine animal fur. It is known as a pile fabric and is typically made from polymeric fibers that are processed, dyed, and cut to match a specific fur texture and color. First introduced in 1929, advances in polymer technology have tremendously improved fake fur quality. Today's fake furs can be nearly indistinguishable from the natural furs they imitate. Other naturally occurring fabrics are also used to make fake furs and improve the look and feel of the overall garment. These include materials such as silk, wool, and mohair. Cotton or wool, along with polypropylene, are typically used to make the backings to which the fibers are attached. Rayon, a semisynthetic fiber made from cellulose and cotton linters, is used to supplement acrylic and modacrylic fibers on the garment, as are polyester and nylon. Materials such as silicones and various resins are used to improve the smoothness and luster of fake furs. To complete the look of a fake fur, dyes and colorants are used. If a true imitation is desired, designers match the color with natural fur. However, fashion designers have found that the fake fur fabric has merits of its own and have started using colors and styles that give it its own new, unique look.

One fact about homeless animals is that many are killed each year because shelters are over crowded. Other facts include the fact that homeless animals who are not picked up by animal control become feral. Many homeless animals are given up by their owners, while others escaped from their home or yard.

Dear asker/reader I can't say how much die in a lab each Year. But i can tell you that 33 die every second Hope that helps ya!!!

Almost 500 mil animals die every day because of people.

This number includes not only higher mammals, but also victims of poultry industry and fishing industry, as well as animal abuse victims and animals in captivity that died before they could be murdered.

The Body Shop does not test their final products or their raw materials on animals.

The company was bought by L'Oreal (which does test on animals), but Anita Roddick (the founder of The Body Shop) was a firm believer in protecting animal rights, and so, in the sale contract, L'Oreal is forced to uphold the values of the original company.

This information is from a retail employee of The Body Shop, who is not obligated to promote company values, but feels proud to do so.

None, unless you are counting people as animals. Murder is the unlawful killing of a human being. Animals are not humans.

In Great Britain, it is estimated that approximately 26 animals (chickens, pigs, cattle, sheep, ducks, etc.) are killed each second.

Cats, Dogs, Horses, Cows, Sheep, Goats, Pigs and Reptiles.

1. It is very expensive to build.

2. Natural habitats are destroyed for the building of the plants.

3.Large sources of water is needed.

4.The quality and the quanity of the water may be lowered.

usually a "slap on th wrist" at most; ie maybe a small fine, almost never jail time

All of them, it is a requirement to test on animals before testing on humans. This prevents human deaths, since it's impossible to know the effect of a chemical on a living body without testing it. Some of the animals used for testing are: rats, mice, cats, dogs, rabbits, monkeys, apes, pigs and bears. There is a growing trend among some scientists to advocate for limiting the use of animal testing to only research that cannot be done with virtual simulation or in vitro testing on cultured cells(test tubes with blood in em, to see how cells react).

A first stage test is now rarely done on lab animals, virtual systems and in vitro tests can substitute for testing on animals when testing to see if a substance is broadly toxic. However, virtual and in vitro testing cannot give much more information than toxicity as virtual models are still limited, and many effects cannot be guessed simply by observing blood chemistry changes. Animal testing still needs to be done to test for things such as the LD50 (dose at which 50% of test subjects die) or more subtle/rare effects, such as 30% of test subjects experiencing heart palpitations, something that you can't find out with blood chemistry or computer models, but that would cause a big problem if it where marketed.

Animal tests can only tell us so much, as their physiology is different from ours, so human testing still needs to be done before something hits the market, and many things that used to be tested for on animals are no longer tested for, and many effects on animals are even ignored because of this, since animal testing in those circumstances realy does not teach us anything useful. Something may cause no effects, or severe effects in rats, but may act completely differently on humans.

As a whole, animal testing has been greatly reduced in recent years, but will probably never be wholy elliminated from the process of testing new drugs, as it is still preferable for most people, to kill a rat, than to kill a human. As our knowlege grows, we will surely reduce it even further.

The oarfish has so many adaptations that helps its survival. They have a long bone structure that helps them to swim in a vertical position. Since they do not have teeth, they do not eat meat.

lots of cats from being put down.....and all that stuff SO ADOPT!

Human right abuse is when the use of force is exerted by government to maintain power; or controlling others with or without their consent..

It is hard to say the exact number of dogs from puppy mills that end up in shelters, after all when you adopt a dog or a cat or any other animal for that matter you are making a life time commitment to care for this animal, therefore the type of person who will simply give up their dog when it is no longer convenient is not likely to be the kind of person who carefully looks into the ethics of the breeder they are buying their dog from. This means in many cases the owner wont have a clue is there breeder they got their dog from ran a puppy mill and if the owner doesn't know there is no way for the shelter can know. What I can tell you is that 20% of all dogs that end up in shelters a pure breeds.

Over 5,000 per year

actually, it's people cruelty that we should stop. animals aren't cruel, they just operate on self-defense and instinct.

I believe that this is the food chain. Not sure what you mean by "living factors."

Abuse is abuse, no matter what species, and abuse has criminal consequences. Hunting for food or due to over population isn't considered animal abuse to many, and many advert their eyes to such practice. Poaching or illegal hunting is animal abuse, because of animals endangered of being extinct. If animals becomes extinct there's a disruption in the food chain, and that will cause major problems in our ecosystem.

Some believe hunting is abuse, but if it were not for hunting many species would already be extinct "including humans". Depends a lot on whether the animal wasn't humanely killed while being hunted or if the animal was abusively tortured before it was killed, that would be considered animal abuse.

Technically, it's not 'making love', but just sex. 'Making love" is usually termed for couples that are emotionally connected.

Next, to the question itself. Such a thing goes against standard proper societal thinking. Also there's the issue of health and bacteria. Other than that, it's alright.

In Sikhism emphasis is placed on how we treat fellow human beings rather than animals.

The Sikh message towards animals, plants and minerals is to treat them well. This does not mean we worship them or place them on a pedestal.

As animal husbandry has show, if you treat animals well, they will yield better milk and meat.

Some Sikhs eat meat and some are vegetarian. The choice in Sikhism is an individual choice.

A pregnant mare is okay to be ridden for the first 6 or 7 months of her pregnency. Generally, it's a good thing for them to have moderate excerise. For the last 4 or 5 months of her pregnency you should limit her excerise.
