Animal Rights and Abuse
Animal rights has to do with the idea that animals should have the same basic rights as humans. Abuse includes anything that hurts or harms the animal, such as not providing a suitable living space, using animals for drug experimentation, and physically harming them.

What are services the government provide?
The federalgovernment looks over the "big stuff", like the government of Alberta. Rights, taxes etc. It consists of lutenint govoner
What are the advantages and disadvantages of overfishing?
Overfishing can be used to control fish populations and can be helpful in encouraging natural selection. Overfishing can also be very harmful as it causes fish populations to decrease, affecting all animals that rely on them for food. Overfishing has led many governments to reduce the required size of fish to one that is smaller than when the fish reproduce.
Is testing on animals a social justice?
Not exactly. Social justice is generally referred to human rights and creating an egalitarian society. In this case, we're talking about animal rights, so it doesn't exactly fit in that category.

How come Turks get a pleasure from torturing animals?
you find a far greater percentage of people that originate from Muslim religions have Little empathy for animals. this has to do with their harsh cultural back ground. remember the protection of animals against abuse is still a relatively new concept.
Do animals in animal shelters get regular exercise?
Sometimes they do, but in cruel animal shelters they don't.
Medical testing on animals are more good?
It usually does more harm than good. Not only is the process torturous and deadly for the animals involved (i.e. open heart surgery performed on dogs without anesthesia, brain fluid extracted from cats, burns inflicted on rabbits, dyes and chemicals injected into the eyes of animals etc) but it also does little to further the medical community. Many tests are repeated numerous times by different companies because their is no reporting database so tests often get duplicated a multitude of times. Furthermore, companies are legally allowed to do the test over and over until they get the desired result. So, say if a company is testing the safety of a chemical in a household cleaner and 50% of the rabbits die, they can keep running the same test (or dilute the amount of the chemical) until they get the legal amount of deaths so they can put the product on the market. It is not protecting us, just getting them past legal hurdles at the expense of animal lives. Moreover, we now have things like artificial skin which makes it unnecessary to perform these tests on living subjects. I hope that answers your question!
What is difference between animal food and animal feed?
there isn't a difference - you can use either word
No. Animal testing is a necessary part of research.
Animal testing has advanced our technology and medicine. Practicaly every medical breakthrough in recent years has been due to research with animals. For example, treatments for TB, AIDS/HIV, smallpox, polio, cancer, and other devestating illnesses could only have come up (ethically) as a result of animal testing. Additionally, not only do humans benefit, but so do animals. Veterinarian treatments (i.e. treatments for animals) are largely also the result of animal testing. Research on animals has also uncovered new ways on how to treat better treat animals. Had animal testing not existed, it is very unlikely that our healthcare and well-being would be as advanced as it is today.
When working with animals, scientists are expected to follow a code of ethics. Included in this code are the 3Rs:
Replacement: Scientists must exhaust alternative means to get the results without testing on the animals themselves. For example, instead of testing on animals, the answers can be found from archival video clips of nature, or from computer modeling. In other words, animal testing must only done as a last resort.
Reduction: If testing on animals is necessary, scientists must use as few animals as possible.
Refinement: When animal testing is necessary, scientists must refine their methods taken to eliminate any unnecessary suffering caused to the subjects. For example, if an animal must be opened to view something, the animal must be anaesthized, and if it is necessary to kill the animal, it must be put down in a humane manner.
Unfortunately, there are indeed occasions where some researchers inflict unnecessary cruelty on animals, such as the Silver Spring monkey case. However, to use this to brand all animal testing as cruel is like using workplace abuse cases to brand all businessness as evil. No respectable scientist is motivated by sadism or desire to cause harm to animals. Remember, scientists are just as human as any other person on earth, and sometimes they make mistakes that have consequences. This is no more flawed than a person trying to rescue and free animals, only to unknowingly and unintentionally kill them.
It is lamentable that animals are subject through this, but it is a sacrifice that is necessary for the better.
Should animals be used in circus performances?
This is just an opinion and, to be honest with you, I think that having animals put in cages for our amusment is just sick entertainment. At the zoo they are kept in cages but they make the environment around them as natural as possible and sometimes they are even trying to save their lives - not put them in cages for amusement.
It's actually pretty nice compared to all the other planets.
This Poem is about Orangutans
I wish that I was told what I've done wrong,
Why I must be left alone for so long.
I've just been killed me the orangutan,
By that evil, ugly man called Dan.
He obviously has no heart else he would let me be a part of this world,
Why would someone want to kill me with my hair so soft and curled.
All these poachers they come around everyday,
Yesterday they killed my best friend Fay.
I'm so lonely now without my mum,
To look after me holding me stroking my fur bum
How does yersinia pestis work on the human body?
Yersinia Pestis is a bubonic plague (Black Death) - most of the spreading occurs between rodents and fleas. In humans, flea bites allow for the bacteria to enter through the skin. Infected animals can transmit the infection to humans through contact with skin tissue. Humans can also spread the bacteria to other humans through sneezing, coughing or direct contact with infected tissue.
Answer: Some people choose not to eat meat because of the way that they are treated. We are not carnivores. Animals should lead natural lives, free from confinement, suffering from the hands of humans and unnatural death.
Answer: If one decides they want to be a meat eater, they can very well do so whether another human being believes they should or not. Life survives from life, as in, each and every living organism feeds off of another to sustain their life, no matter what it is. Humans have eaten animals for the longest, and many choose not to weed it out of our existence for many reasons. some reasons are people enjoy the taste, some cannot afford to change their whole diet around, and/or for others, going vegetarian/vegan is not healthy for them at all regardless of how it effects another.
No, Animals should not be tested, because animals are killed during the experiments and suffering during studies and they die in vain when they are tested.
Does make-up testing harm animals?
- Yes it can and often dogs or cats (even rats and mice) are left blind and sometimes have wounds that do not heal. Once the ASPCA and SPCA got word of this many of the makeup products were boycotted by the public and now most people will look on the labels to be sure it says "not tested on animals."
- Yes, it can be harmful because all different forms of chemicals used in human make up are applied directly onto the animal and the scientist watch for any irritation or discomfort. An animal will be harmed if it has an allergic reaction to the make up testing product.
- Yes, because not only could they possibly go blind or have other infected wounds they are being hurt for no reason as some or maybe most animals have a different reaction to these chemicals from what humans do. It is pointless for the animal being tested to go through with the treatment and I have an aversion when poor animals are kept in really bad conditions.
- Actually, at worst, this is what happens: The animals are kept in hugely cramped quarters, often about three rabbits in a half foot by one foot cage, living in piles of their own excrement. These animals, (the most commonly used testing animals are rabbits and small rodents, not, I don't believe, ever dogs), are then partly shaved, and have chemicals rubbed on their skin, chemicals often burn, blister, or otherwise painfully skin irritations or open wounds. After this horrific torture, they are roughly transported and then usually killed. I know this is a lot to take in, and not all animal testers are quite this brutal, but I feel this is something everyone should know about when buying make up, shampoo, or really any other such substance including deodorant or talc powder. Not all companies use this abominable practice. To tell them apart, read the back of what ever substance you're buying. There is a symbol that means it is not animal tested, or it will say that it is not animal tested. If it does not say, it most likely is tested on animals.
- Yes, animal testing is wrong! If an animal is given lethal injections that rupture their stomach, does it harm them? Of course it does. We need to stop the insanity of the cruelty to animals for the sake of human vanity. Animals are simply different from humans and are given massive doses of whatever the scientists are testing and there is no correlation
Does oil of olay test on animals?
Oil of Olay DOES test on animals according to http://home.netcom.com/~axleplus/stuff/hotstuff/company.html.
Carrie Underwood is now their spokesmodel. YIKES! She is a vegetarian and cares about animals. How do we let her know?
Is make up made out of bat poop?
Well, some makeup is made from elephant dung, but there is only one brand of that stuff and u would no if it was. But most makeup is not made out of dung. The makeup that says it is, is. The makeup that doesn't say anything about it, even in its ingredients list, isn't. Hope this helps, T.
How much you get paid being a doctor?
Salary implies the doctor is working for someone else. So, a salary depends on what you are doing to make money for the company the doctor works for. Probably $30,000 to start right out of med school, to millions, if your research finds the cure for cancer.
The average specialist salary is around 180-250k which is still low.
There is no question that medical doctors are some of the highest paid specialists in America. A doctor's income can range from 80, 000 dollars a year to 3, 000, 000 dollars a year. Three factors that contribute to this difference in yearly income are a doctor's specialty, affiliation, and ownership in a private practice medical group. For example, a Gastroenterologist who is employed by a hospital, or a large medical corporation, will usually make less than a Gastroenterologist who shares ownership in an 8 to 20 man private practice medical group. This differentiation in yearly income also applies for Cardiologists, Neurologists, OBGYNs, Radiologists, Anesthesiologists, Urologists, Oncologists, and Pediatrists. These specialists are capable of making up to 600, 000 dollars a year if they share ownership in a private practice medical group. This number can be cut in half if these specialists are employed by a hospital, or a large medical corporation. Now, Internists, Family Practitioners, and Pediatricians are among the lowest paid doctors in America. This is because their level of expertise does not include costly medical procedures. Their average work day mainly consists of basic examinations, prescribing medications, and referring patients to specialists, which does not generate a large amount of income. On the other hand, Orthopedic Surgeons, Plastic Surgeons, Neurosurgeons, Cardiothoracic Surgeons, Cardiovascular Surgeons, and Pediatric Surgeons, are among the highest paid doctors in America. These specialists are capable of making 800, 000 dollars a year to 3, 000, 000 dollars a year regardless of being in a private practice medical group, or being an employee of a hospital. This is because the cost of surgery is extremely high, and these specialists generate a large amount of income for a hospital; therefore, their yearly income is extremely high. Now, certain medical specialists who share ownership in a private practice medical group are capable of making up to 1, 000, 000 dollars a year. These specialists include Dermatologists, Ophthalmologists, and Orthodontists. This is because their level of expertise includes cosmetic (cash up front) care, and/or highly expensive medical procedures.
Before you become a doctor, you must go to 4 years of premed school and med school. You then get your degree, but must complete a residency before you can practice outside of a hospital. Residences last from 1 to 9 years, depending on your specialty.You get paid to be a resident. After you complete your residency, you become an attending. Attendings are the doctors you see in your local family clinic (mostly). Attendings get paid $60,000 to $96,000 a year.
oh of course, their just stealth about it so we dont find out
