Bird abuse is becoming more common around the world. Types of Bird abuse would include shooting of crows, starving them to death and the force-feeding of turkeys.
In countries such as Singapore, crows are being shot. Although they may cause nuisance, they are living creatures and do not deserve to die. Moreover, they are being caught and caged to be killed later. These usually happen near HDB flats.
Moreover, people adopt and buy these pets and do not commit to their pets. This may be the cause of character disorder in people. They may have a violent temperament. This is supported in a book called Just a dog by Arnold Arluke. This book shows the possible reasons for animal cruelty, one of them being character disorder.
Another abuse of birds is the force-feeding of geese. In Turkey, geese are stuffed with food until they die. The dish they make out of these geese is called Foie Gras. This is the dish of a geese liver. Although this is a dish that people there enjoy eating, this should be stopped as animals should not be tormented.
Ways we can stop bird abuse:
People with character disorder or a violent temperament should never commit themselves to take care of a pet. Moreover, a bird should have the freedom to fly. Hence, tormenting it at home would be considered bird cruelty.
Moreover, people and industries should stop killing rare and endangered birds for its feathers and value. This deprives their opportunity to be with their habitats. Hence, endangered birds should be well kept.
