research assignment #2- animal cruelty

   there are people that abuse animals for many different reasons. some people abuse animals for no reason at all. either way... its wrong!!!!! If you don't know what animal cruelty is... (which you should) it is like child abuse but to animals. animal neglect can actually affect the animal. some examples of animal neglect is... starvation, dehydration, letting his/her collar to grow into his/her skin, having the animal living in extremely harsh conditions... (whether hot or cold) also by not taking your animal to the vet when needed or even just for checkups.
 you need to make sure your animal drinks, eats, lives in a fair envoiroment, and gets the medical attention it needs. Animal neglect can cause incredible pain and suffering to the animal.  
   there are special police for animal cruelty. this police enforcement is called the ASPCA. they specialize in animal cruelty. they take away and lock up the owners of the animals that they dont take proper care of. if there is a case where there is animal cruelty, then they have the right to immediately take away your animal and give it the medical attention it needs and is removed from the enviroment.
   animal cruelty is when a person intentionally causes harm to an animal. intentionally causing harm to an animal is often a sign of psychological problems. most abusers often abuse people/ animals because they have come from a violent household, or  has experienced abuse in their past. they try to get it off their shoulders or mind by abusing other people/animals. which can lead to killing. 122454 animal cruelty complaints were made in the year of 2006. complaints dropped by 20% to 1647.
