Closed petition Animal abuse charges to be the same as human abuse charges

Closed on

Murder is murder, assault is assault, physical abuse is physical abuse whether it is a human or an animal anyone found murdering or assaulting an animal should be punished the same as if they had murdered/assaulted a human to the maximum extent of the law.

Thousands of animals are killed murdered, brutally beaten, or left to starve to death. The sentencing for these offences is often a minimum Unlimited fine and/or 6 months. Help to stop animal suffering by signing our petition.
