Cow
Animals are unable to speak out for themselves. Unfortunately they are often treated inhumanely. They are often abused and treated cruelly at the hands of those who have been given charge over their care. Some animals have been hunted to the point of extinction because of their fur, tusks or other reasons. They have been used for trophies and have been exploited far too long. Illegal poaching, whaling and exploitation of their natural habitats have forced them to move into areas occupied by humans making them even easier targets to be taken advantage of and abused.
