From dragging dolphins back out to shore to crawling
across ice to save a dog. People go to great lengths to save animals.
Pets
Owners will do anything for their pets but why? I
think that there is a strong link between owners and their pets especially
dogs. I find that the saying 'A dog is man's best friend' is very true. Dogs
are not just pets they are part of the family and are companions of life. The
bond however goes both ways between owner and dog. This is shown firstly by the
man in essex who crawled over ice covered river to resque his dog that had
fallen in. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-essex-17048574 This
shows the blind loyalty that owners have that they will risk their own life for
their dogs. On the other hand you have the loyal dog that refused to leave a
soldiers side even after he died. This shows how strong the connection is
between master and dog. It is a long lasting friendship that is often stronger
than that between humans. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZPx2Wnc0lI
Wild Animals
People will help any animal in need not just their
pets. I think often people are more willing to help animals than humas which I
think comes from the idea that people have that animals cannot help themselves
because it is humans that are making their life difficult. This is the case of
animal conservation anyway. But then you also have those people who save
animals in need such as in Brazil where a pod of dolphins got stranded on the
beach and people dragged them back to sea. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-17309949
I think that the main reason why people help animals
because they feel it is their duty and because they sympathise for them.
