It seems that those who abuse animals rarely stop there, but go
onto abusing humans. This is exactly what Professor Eleonora
Gullone, Associate Professor in Psychology at Monash University,
Australia, believes. She says that “Almost without exception, the
perpetrators of animal cruelty crimes are the same individuals who
carry out aggressive and violent acts including assault, partner and
child abuse. Thus, animal cruelty crimes should be treated with the
same seriousness as crimes against humans. Moreover, the punishments
should reflect their severity."

It
makes sense that once a person deadens his/her sensitivity toward
the pain caused to God's animals, this person also deadens his/her
sensitivity toward the pain caused to people. On the other hand, the
more we love and respect other creatures, the more we will respect
and love human life.
