HUNTING

• Hunting is the activity of hunting wild animals or game especially for food or sport.

The biggest hunt is

In TAIJI, western Japan.

Every year Japanese fishermen harvest about 20,000 dolphins and small whales as part of what they say is a centuries-old tradition.

• When dawn breaks over Taiji, the banger boats head out for the hunt.

• They are called banger boats because the fishermen bang poles against their hulls to create an underwater wall of sound, which drives panicked dolphins towards the cove, and to slaughter.

BANGER BOAT.

HUNTING AS SPORT

Causes

PAIN & SUFFERING!

Animal Fighting• Animal fighting is a contest in which people

urge two or more animals to fight for the purpose of human entertainment.

• In some instances, one of the animals may be a bait animal used for the ostensible purpose of sport or training.

• For entertainment : gambling

Types of animal fighting• Dogfightingtwo dogs are put into a ring or pit to fight until one cannot continue or dies.

• Hog-dog fighting (Also known as “hog-dog trials” or “hog-dog rodeos”)

dogs (usually pit bulls) are put in a pen and timed for how quickly they can attack and pin a feral hog whose tusks have been cut off.

Handlers may use a breaking stick to pry apart the jaws of the biting dogs. The attack on the hog may be fatal. In a “hog-baying” event, dogs are timed for how quickly they can corner a hog. Injuries can result from dogs biting hogs or defensive hogs throwing dogs in the air. Attendees consider the events to be family entertainment.t continue or dies.

•Cockfighting

Handlers attach a razor or gaff to each rooster’s leg (typically the left leg) and put them into a ring to fight to the death. Attendees often consider the events to be family entertainment.

Animal abandonment.

Do you think it is right?????????

How do you feel if you were abandoned?

NICE?!

Why & What?

• Why do people abandon pets? • What did they do to you?• Why do you like to see them suffer?• Why do you abuse them?• What benefits are there?

Have you ever wondered?

Have you ever thought about what you are doing?

Have you ever tried and feel?Have you bothered?

Why do people even do this?

• Some people feel the fun of hurting hurting animal and then abandoning them.

• Some people feel that animals do not have feelings.

• Some people don’t care about pets.• Some people just wanted a pet for fun and then lost interest.

What happens?

Abandoned pets die from illnessesAbandoned pets becomes aggressive Abandoned pets die due to starvation Abandoned pets gets captured and killedAbandoned pets are not wanted by other peopleAbandoned pets reproduce

Solutions.

Do not have pets if you are not dedicated.Do not simply breed pets and then abandon them. If you are a pet lover, adopt pets from shelters. If you are only keen with one pet, do not allow it to

breed.Get more education about raring pets before getting

one.

Outcome

• Less stray dogs.• Less pets in the shelter• Less dogs being put to death• Less dogs attacking people

Hmm??

• Need I say more?

• Act now and do the right thing.
