My mother used to say that if a person abused an animal, they will abuse another human being. I have seen this truth play out in the world, more times than I care to mention. Animals are the most innocent and pure souls on this planet, and how someone can abuse them and treat them as if they were emotionless "things" is beyond me. If a person can beat, torture, kill and abandon one of these innocent creatures, and have no conscience over it, imagine what they are capable of doing to another human being. If mankind constantly slaughters poor animals and tears up the land, robbing them of their natural home and habitat... what will he do to his fellow man? I suppose the answer to that is seen in the media every day. How can we truly learn kindness and compassion when we discard and harm the purest creatures on the earth?
