Dear /an/, I seek your help.

I'm going to enter in an essay contest whose topic is the inhumane treatment of one animal species or of an animal issue. However, I don't want to write some PETA bullshit nor meat-packing plants, like everyone else will probably do.

So I need your help, /an/, please help me find an interesting, controversial topic to write about!

In return, I give you a seal wallpaper.

- People buying pets and then putting them on the street after xmas.

- Dolphins being killed by tuna fishermen.
- Modern animal industry: chicken, cows, pigs raised on small space in the thousands.
- Misbreeding of dogs/cats/etc.
- cosmetic industry testing their products on animals

Don't get fur trade which involves skinning animals alive among other things.

Fixed.

I never got the whole skinning alive thing. What's the freaking point?

>>66998
there is no point.
those people are just too lazy to properly kill the animals.

i dunno, that screaming PETA activist essay is simply overdone.
Why not give an unbiased view of a topic.
Say overfishing, and how the steps taken might affect the livelihood of the fishermen or something.

Moar pics of baby seals! And maybe some cute/funny pics of dolphins. My gf loves so much it's just silly, but getting her new pics might get me some... So help a fellow, /an/!

Schweet... how do I set borked up resolution?

I've seen quite a few animals skinned in my day, and doing it while they're alive seems like it would make it a lot more difficult.

Much better idea, there.

Instead of the focus on killing animals, why not focus on the illegal pet trade, which focuses on keeping them alive for human benefit (rather than killing them)? Bring in the exception of zoos, though they're not doing something illegal, is it any better? Stuff like that, outside the boooox.

OP here, thanks for all the great ideas, I'm going to reasearch all of them and see what I can find to best fit my essay. Unfortunately, I don't have any more seals, but I have some lions and frogs...
