Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circus and zoo. Many of us buy our beloved pets from the pet shops without even caring what actually we are doing just to fulfill our desires. Those animals also are living creatures and have their own preferences of living in a habitat of their choice, with their fellow beings around. Who have given us the right to exploit their living to fill our requirements? They deserve their own freedoms and rights.rnSuppose that tomorrow a group of creatures from another planet land on our Earth, who consider themselves as superior to us and treat us with same behavior as we treat our pets or animals around us. We will be left to feel that we are like other animals, whose decisions are taken by some big nasty creatures. Would they have the right to treat you as you treat the animals you breed, keep you where they want and kill you for food?rnSurely your response will be a big “NO”. Then why this treatment with the animals around us, when we ourselves cannot tolerate such behavior? Animals surely deserve to live their lives free from suffering and exploitation on their own will. They have their own freedom to live where ever they want on our planet. Every human must understand that those voiceless creatures have even the right to live and choose their own freedoms.rnSome of the Animal Rights that all the human must understand before treating the fellow creatures with abuse and ill treatment for their comfort. • The right to live free in the natural state of their own habitat and belongings. • The right to life. They cannot be killed just for the human needs for food and clothing. • The right to reproduce. • The right to express normal behaviors like searching for food, grooming, nest building, roaring and breeding etc. • The right to choose their own lifestyle and live among their own breed and habitat. No animal should be kept in cages or forcefully trained to perform at circuses or zoos just for human entertainment. • The right to live free from human induced harm or abuse. No human has the right to kill the species or torture them to hunger, thirst, molestation, fear, distress, pain, injury or disease.rnOrganizations for Animals Rights believe that animals have an inherent worth completely separate from their usefulness to humans. Such Animal Rights Organizations believe that every creature with a will to live has a right to live free from pain and suffering from the human or any other source on the earth. Animal rights is not just a philosophy, it is a social movement that challenges the society’s traditional view that all the animals exist solely for human use. All the animals have basic interests that deserve recognition, consideration, and protection against the external or internal abuse or harm. In the view of Animal Rights Organizations, these basic rights should be given to the animals with both moral and legal rights to live their life full of freedom on this planet.rnDifferent Animal Rights Organizations may approach the issue from different philosophical perspectives but all agree that when the interests of animals are the same as humans, nonhuman animals should be considered in much the same way as humans and therefore regarded as part of the moral community and should therefore not be exploited in any way, such as used for food or clothing, or used in experiments or as entertainment and as laborers, nor should they be regarded as property. They also have the right to live and breathe with us without any fear of external sources.
