Do people today do enough to protect animals?
Our life is closely connected with the animal world. Therefore, I think the problem of animal protection is one of the most urgent nowadays. There are different views on this issue. Some people consider that the mankind is successful enough in taking precautions to improve the situation. I support the opinion of others who believe that the problem of animal protection should be paid more attention to.
From my point of view, more should be done in order to protect animals. Firstly, there are a great number of abandoned animals on the streets in cities. In my opinion, the government should create new homes where stray animals are taken care of, fed and provided with medical care. Secondly, people have deprived animals of their natural habitats. Great areas of forests are still being cut down and any species are under the treat of extinction.
In contrast to this, opponents of this view say that nowadays animals are protected in a proper way. I cannot agree with it because all the problems seem to be far from solving yet. Animals are widely used for testing drugs and cosmetics. Personally, I believe such cruel methods to be unacceptable.
To sum up, I think that the problem of the animal protection should be treated more carefully. There are a lot of organizations like Green Peace, WWF fighting for the rights of animals but their work is not efficient enough to change the situation considerably. Stricter laws need to be taken in order to save animal life on our planet.
