Please spay all bitches and neuter all males. STOP the unneccessary breeding and selling of dogs and cats on the streets. Please punish the culprits who tied Lucy to the railway line! ... also the culprit who buried a dog alive .... Who can be so evil?

This really brought tears to my eyes - hope it does the same to everyone that reads it. Maybe the government must implement a legislation similar to New Zealand. You cannot have animals until officials look into your background and check your home and see if you are fit enough emotionally and financially to have an animal.

It's about time goverment realizes that cruelty to an animal by an individual will and cannot have respect for humann life either. If they are capable of such cruelty to animals what are they capable of doing to a baby that pisses them off or another human life. In a nut shell if we teach our children to love and respect animals we will have a society of caring for animals and each other - could possibily lead to less violent crimes in SA over all. It's all about love which leads to peace harmon

To say "they are worse than animals", is an insult to the animal. No beast large or small is capable of the atrocities that mankind commits, often in the name of our "humanity".

All humans should be educated that we are dependant on our environment (plants and animals) for our own psychological well being and survival! So we must not be selfish and think of only human lives. We have domesticated certain animals for our own pleasure. We need to at least care for them if we remove their natural survival instincts and natural environment.

Animals feel pain and suffering - they are not objects. It's up to caring humans to protect the rights of animals.It's essential to change our laws.

I dont approve of any harm or cruelty towards any living life on Earth, whether it be Human or Animals. Oh any life, no for sport or fun, not for poching. Survival for food is another matter altogether.

Animals have feelings! They love, hurt, feel pain, feel happiness, they feel hunger! Why would they cry out when they are hurt, because they feel the pain! Please protect all animals from abuse!

For animals to have FREEDOM FROM HUNGER - by ready access to fresh water and a diet to maintain full health and vigour FREEDOM FROM DISCOMFORT - by providing an appropriate environment including shelter FREEDOM FROM PAIN , INJURY OR DISEASE - by prevention or rapid diagnosis and treatment FREEDOM TO EXPRESS NORMAL BEHAVIOUR - by providing sufficient space and company of the animal's own kind FREEDOM FROM FEAR & DISTRESS - by ensuring conditions and treatment which avoid mental suffering

Humans who participate in animal cruelty are unfortunately lost in & to themselves. They have lost their innate connection to this planet, their divine purpose in life, dignity, sense of pride, love and respect for all living things. They still need to walk a long evolutionary path - a person who abuses animals will abuse humans, the planet and all other life. If animal abuse is not severely punished, a basic building block of human education and peaceful societal interaction becomes redundant.

Stop animal abuse right now at your own home - Go vegetarian! Stop eating our living creatures! I have been a vegetarian for many years now, and it is the best moral decision ever made. Just look into yourself.

South Africa, I have ancestry in your country. It's a beautiful country, and I want to be proud of my heritage. But this story has upset me greatly. Us humans like to call ourselves the "Master Race", so let's act like it - and give animals the respect they so deserve. Please.
