Some people think that humans can use animals in any way for their own

benefit. Others, however, believe that people should not use animals in a
wrong way. Discuss both these views and give your opinion.
Man use animals for various purposes, which sometimes can amount to abuse and
even cause their death. Many animal right activists have, recently, raised concerns
about the ill-treatment of animals by human beings. This essay intends to analyse
both sides of this issue in detail.
On the one hand, many believe that man is a superior being and therefore it is
justifiable to cause pain and even kill animals for his survival and welfare, especially
in scientific experiments and as a means of food and entertainment. For example,
many life saving drugs for humans have been tested in animals like guinea pigs
before they are is used by man. This has resulted in the invention of many life
saving medicines which are essential for man to maintain his health and prolong his
life. Similarly, many animals like pigs and chicken are reared and killed for food and
elephants and lions are used in circuses to entertain people and make
money. Although many consider these to be cruelty to animals, most human beings
think that it is essential for mans well-being.
On the other hand, animal lovers contend that showing cruelty to animals is
unjustifiable because it is a violation of animal rights. They also believe that animals
experience pain and stress just like human beings and therefore it is cruel to ill-treat
them.
Although it may amount to a certain level of cruelty, it seems logical to make use of
animals for the needs of man. Even in nature, we see stronger animals attacking
and killing weaker ones for their food. Moreover, man greatly benefits from animals,
in transportation, farming and scientific experiments.
In conclusion, my suggestion is that it is inevitable to use animals for the benefit of
man, but they should minimise animal sufferings in all ways possible.
