Why Do We Have Animal Rights

Ever since animals and humans have existed humans have always violated animal rights. Although not even the law states that animals have rights, every single day animals in farms get tortured and slaughtered and used for meat.Ever since animals and humans have existed humans have always violated animal rights. Although not even the law states that animals have rights, every single day animals in farms get tortured and slaughtered and used for meat. The meat that we eat gets processed and injected with many things that are harmful for our bodies. Most meat consumers don’t pay attention to all those harmful chemicals that are being consumed when we eat the meat including that amount of meat we eat daily. Animals play a big role in our lives they contribute to absolutely all of our daily activities, like the clothes we wear, food we eat, and entertainment, as well as a companion when it comes to pet owners. They are so useful in many ways and they should be respected and deserve to have rights. I believe animals should have their own rights and not get tortured or mistreated, they should be killed in a humane way
Over 99% of farm animals in the U.S get raised in a factory farm where all the animals are put into spaces they can barely even move in. 100 million pigs are used for food every year just in the U.S they are able to live up to 15 years but in factory farms they get slaughtered as young as six months. Male pigs get castrated with no painkillers, just because people don’t like the taste or smell of uncastrated pigs, but what about the pigs? … to avoid tail biting in the very small spaces they are kept in, their tails get cut off as well with no painkillers. Due to selective breeding that happens in these factories animals grow faster and become overweight, which leads to their deaths by chronic pain, heart aches, and mobility
