Argumentative Essay-It's Time To Stop Animal Abuse
“Non-violence leads to the highest ethics, which is the goal of all evolution. Until we stop harming all other living beings, we are still savages.” This quote about animal abuse is from Thomas Edison, an engineer known for his life changing innovations that continue to impact on our world today. Animal abuse is a long-debated problem, often causing the world’s population to split into two sides over the dispute. On one side, are those who say that humans are far superior to animals and other living beings who have been put here solely to feed or entertain us. On the other hand, there are those of us who recognise that these “inferior life forms” should have the same rights as us, and so they deserve the same treatment.

The device will be installed as a microchip and extension similar to that of a cochlear implant. The microchip, embedded in the animal’s skin, will connect to a tiny video camera hidden near where the dewlap is on a dog. Inside the pet’s body, the microchip will have a constant gauge on the pet’s corticotropin (fear hormone) levels. The microchip will be paired with an accelerometer to measure stress levels, along with the corticotropin. When the accelerometer detects a certain amount of vibration, fear hormone levels are rising rapidly, or if those same levels surpass a certain threshold, the microchip will connect with the video camera and turn it on. The footage, along with the location of the pet) will be broadcast to a group of animal abuse experts in the near vicinity who will deem whether or not the rising corticotropin levels were due to animal abuse. If the experts decide that it was abuse, officials will be deployed to the location of the animal, and if needed, remove the animal from the offender. The microchip will benefit non-profit animal adoption centres such as the SPCA or Pet Rescue because a smaller amount of animals will end up in their care. The microchip can be used for other functions such
