Belief: A Workable Fix
to Environmental Conflict with Special Reference to Critter
by Aaradhna Jain |
Mahatma Gandhi, said: “To my
mind, the life of a lamb is no less precious than that of a
human being… I hold that the more helpless a creature is, the
more entitled it is to protection… ”1 George Angell, who
walked this planet in the 18th-century was an animal
advocate. Once, the media asked him as to why he focuses so
much of his time, attention and energies on animals when so
much of human barbarism existed. George Angell replied, "I am
working at the roots." This statement concludes the effect
that animal savagery has on our environment. Animal cruelty
includes a wide range of behaviors including animal hoarding,
neglect, abandonment, animal fights, animal rapes and
deliberate acts of cruelty. Whatever form it takes, animal
cruelty tends to be the starting point for a much wider range
of problems from domestic violence, environmental issues,
dipping morals and spiritual values to terrorism, social
unrest, rapes and a variety of social evils. According to
PETA (People for Ethical Treatment Of Animals) a study that
was conducted by the Northeastern University and the
Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals found that people who committed crimes against
animals were five times more likely to commit violence
socially. Domestic violence and animal cruelty are also
linked. According to the National Institute of Mental Health
and Allied Sciences, India, people who are abusive and
violent towards animas are likely to be violent towards one’s
partner, parents, society and environment in general. |
