I chose this quote because it tells us that killing animals happens faster than someone gathering knowledge. Next, this book relates to society because many animals in the world are becoming endangered today. An example of this is the Bonobos from the book.

The farming industry in particular, carries the burden of feeding a massive population, forcing the industry to maximize farming productivity to fulfill consumer demand through the use of large-scale industrial farming techniques. In order for farming industries to gain any-sort of profit corners are cut to produce remunerative earnings. For years the industry has made efforts to convert their manufacturing process of converting animals to food from the public.
Pit Bulls were first bred to bait bulls and bears as a sport back in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, but soon became more commonly used as house pets due to their friendliness towards people (Brom, 1987-09, p.14). This indeed should open up society’s eyes to Pit Bulls not being an aggressive breed simply because they became more commonly used as pets, and they once represented The United States of America by serving in wars. Many of us base our opinions on what we hear in the media; we hear that Pit Bulls are overly aggressive, prone to biting, and in general should be banned as a breed. The court cases are squarely to blame for this breeds misconception of being a terror. The highest court in Maryland has held that all pit bull and cross-bred pit bull dogs are "inherently dangerous" as a matter of law and imposed strict liability on all persons who own, harbor, or control such dogs if they know or

So the question is who should own this loyal breed, what rules need to be followed, and steps that should be taken to show that this breed can be rehabilitated. Let’s start with a little background information on the breed we call a “Pit Bull” also called the American Staffordshire terrier. The breed is originally used for baiting dogs in England. Back then they had the utmost respect from people and a lot of people in England owned a Staffordshire terrier.
Hell in Kennels: Issues in Southern Oregon Animal Shelter Practices and Funding Veronica E. Watt Rogue Community College Hell In Kennels: Issues in Southern Oregon Animal Shelter Practices and Funding “‘People wonder whether animals love one another. If you define love as an enduring, long-term bond in which creatures travel together, consort together, whine when alone, seek one another out,’ engage in various kinds of ‘voluntary, cooperative behavior,’ and refrain from harsh treatment such as by ‘not biting as hard as they could,’ then ‘if you say that humans can love one another, you can say that about animals, too.’” - (Mark Bekoff in Clemmitt, 2010) The above quote, by a professor emeritus of ecology and evolutionary biology at the
Orca Captivity Orca’s have been captured from the wild for display since the 1960’s. When the first captures occurred, orcas were known as mindless killers that lived up to the name “killer whale”. As people began to watch and study orca’s in captivity, they had realized that their perception on these creatures was mislead. Researchers discovered that orcas are highly evolved social beings, and they have come to realize they are not suited for living their lives in captivity. Many groups are working to make people aware of orcas in captivity and avoid future reoccurring problems like this.
