Stop Animal Slaughter

Recently in the class, we have been doing some persuasive writing. For us to complete this task, we needed a: introduction, 4 reasons and a conclusion. We first planned out writing in 4 four boxes. Those 4 boxes are our 4 main reasons about the topic we were writing about. I chose 'Why Should We Stop Killing Animals?' and I stated my reasons. What I enjoyed: I really enjoyed writing about a topic that really needs to be spread out in the world. I was very passionate about this and did my best.

What I found difficult: It was difficult sometimes because I wanted to make sure anyone could understand what I was saying and so I began to doubt myself. I found it hard to keep on writing because there was some research about the downside of going vegan or people hunting down animals for fun. It was hard because we never really what's going on in the wildlife.

What I could do next time: Next time I could make another version of this but a little more easier to understand and read for those who are younger so I can get the message across all ages.

Why Should We Stop Killing Animals?

For a very long time now animals have been used for food, clothing, and testing. We are rapidly losing animals, and we need to make a change immediately before it is too late. Please, take your time to read my reasons on why we should stop killing animals.

Firstly, we are slaughtering and torturing animals for our unnecessary needs. For example, poachers dehorn rhinos and use it for a medicine that does not work or used as a dagger handle. A poacher can dehorn a rhino without harming their skull, and their horn will eventually grow back. Although, how can a mother shield her young from predators without a horn?

Moreover, humans cannot live without animals just as we cannot live without trees. If animals suddenly disappear, forests and grasslands would die because they depend on animals. Most plants and crops rely on animal pollinators to procreate. If we lose many animal pollinators such as bees; there is a possibility that we may lose all plants. The world will struggle without bees because they pollinate most plants.

In my opinion, I truly believe that us humans can survive without eating animals. A plant-based diet is healthy because it consists of all the vitamins and nutrients our bodies need to stay alive. Even though if we lose pollinator species; it would be too late to go vegan. Many people go vegan to prevent animals from being slaughtered and to help save the environment. Did you know, over 150 million animals killed each day for food?

Lastly, animals have feelings too. Humans are not the only living beings that can feel emotions. They feel pain, sadness, and anger the same way we do. It is unfair that numerous animals are killed each day for us to eat them later on for our pleasure. They have families, friends, and - feelings. Please ensure, the next time you decide to eat an animal; think about the torture and trauma they go through.

To summarize, we shouldn't kill animals to save the environment, decrease animal extinction and endangerment; and last but not least, have more justice for animals. What are your thoughts on this topic? Do you agree or disagree with my reasons? If you disagree with my opinions, why? I'd love to hear from other perspectives.
