Humans should only use animals for certain purposes that do not harm the animal and or the human. Animals have been used for decades for various reasons, yet many people had no care or thought for the treatment of these animals. The use of animals for purposes that are harmful to the animal, the atmosphere and humans should be reconsidered as it causes harmful long term harmful effects. In today’s society animals are used for many purposes. Many animals such as deer, duck and more are haunted for no reason other than sport. Animals are also used in laboratories. Products are often tested on certain animals such as rats and mice. In addition to this, they are also used for entertainment purposes and are kept in cages at zoos and aquariums. …show more content…
