As they say – humans are the most intelligent and developed creature ever born on earth. We have progressed unlike anything else during the last two thousand years or so. From wooden carts to flying jets, we have come a long way. However, one thing that has not yet changed is the ruthless behavior of some of us towards creatures that are less privileged, less strong and defenseless when confronted with armed humans – animals. Now imagine that you need to live on a planet of aliens whose civilization is way advanced than ours. Will it look relevant at all? Do you think that they will be able to do you the justice you deserve? Well, if you think the answer should be negative, you know how animals might feel, if they had intelligence, when merciless laws are passed and nobody cares about their welfare.
Each day hundreds of thousands of animals are killed on roads and at butchers. Their only fault is that they live in a world ruled by humans, who never bother to understand their problems. And the situation is getting worse.
If you are worried about the safety of those who can’t speak for and defend themselves, start taking initiatives to help animals.
Help Animals by not ignoring them
All living creatures feel pain. Next time when you are in your car and see a dog that has been hit by someone and left on the road to die, don’t ignore. Remember, the dog is struggling on the edge of death and that the inability to express themselves in human languages does not indicate a lower level of pain it feels. Stop your car. Go out and check how bad he has been hit. If it’s something you can handle, do so. Even if you can’t handle the case, call the local NGOs or animal welfare officers who can help it survive.
The dog you have helped may not say thanks to you, but somewhere in its heart, it will always be grateful for the life given by you. Take the saved life itself as an act of gratitude. Help as many innocent animals as you can by always giving a hand when you spot one in dire need of help.
Help Animals by Rescue Them from Breeders
Some profit hunters capture little animals like dogs, cats, and many other to breed them illegally and then make a profit by selling them. This practice is completely unethical and should be prohibited right away. The impact you can make by reporting illegal breeders, or even simply by not buying pets from them, goes far beyond what you can imagine. Every illegal breeder brought down means that countless animals—parents and their offspring, have been lifted out of misery.
So please give the innocent animals a hand. They’re residents of the earth just as we are, and very much indispensable to maintain the right balance in the ecosystem. Let us all do what we can, treat our animal friends with more kindness, and hope for a brighter future for all creatures.
