Donna is 19 years old and loves animals, which is why I’m always happy to leave my dog with her when I go on holiday. Donna also helps to train hunting dogs, but recently, her boyfriend told me, she returned home from a farm in tears after being told to hit some dogs.“She wasn’t being asked to hit them because they didn’t behave well,” he said. "She was told to punch these puppies with a closed fist simply to let them know who is boss." Donna refused. Good for Donna. In my view, you hurt an animal for only two reasons: as a way to teach it an important lesson, such as not to run into the road; or because you like hurting animals. Last summer, I attended a horse race. I don"t know much about horses, but I was alarmed when I saw a horse with a huge ulcer(溃疡) on its leg. "Surely this horse won"t race?" I asked. I was very surprised that nobody in the crowd seemed concerned. The horse began the race, but later it fell heavily. It had broken its leg. The next thing I saw was its dead body in a bag, being driven past. No one seemed to care, except those who"d bet on it. I know people care for horse racing, but do they really care for horses? I doubt it. Oh, but it"s tradition, I hear you say. Wouldn"t the world be a boring place if we didn"t occasionally hit, shoot and chase animals? Traditions are made by man and can be unmade. It was once acceptable to kill servants when their master died, to visit the mental hospitals to laugh at the patients, or to watch public execution(执行死刑). Nor should it be forgotten that in our progress to a more civilized world, animals have played an important role: they have fed us, carried us, worked for us, rescued us, died for us and sometimes just saved us from loneliness. Surely by now they deserve our kindness. At the very least, they deserve our respect. | |||
