Question Hey Tina, I'm doing a research project on animal abuse and I have a few questions to ask you. I understand that your expertise is in animals raised for food, but I would greatly appreciate it if you could answer these questions to the best of your ability!
Thanks a bunch!
-Emily
1) How do you think animal abuse has changed over the years?
2) What is the worst type of animal abuse you have seen over the years?
3) Why do you personally think animal abuse is a big deal to our society?
4) Over the years which animals have had the most abuse done to them?
5) What physiological problems do people who abuse animals usually have?
6) What type(S) of animals are currently being tested on in our society?
7) Puppy mills have become a huge problem in some states, how do you think puppy mills can be stopped?
8) Ringling Bros. and Barnum %26 Bailey have recently been accused of harming their elephants. Does this surprise you? How do you think the general public has supported this abuse without even knowing?
9) Do you think animals should be used for medical research? If so why or why not?
10) Finally, how do you feel our society can stop animal abuse? What actions can they take?
Answer Hi Emily,
How will you use these answers and what benefit would it be for me to answer them for you? Are you trying to save time in research by asking these, or ?
I am in the process of another book - if you feel these are justified, I can take the time to answer them, however, I think this is homework and I believe you could find the answers with some effort.
