All of God's creatures have rights, a fact that most people don't seem to recognize.
This includes both human and non-human animals, but not all of them can speak for themselves.
It Hurts
By Bernie Jones
Surely they understand
as I squeal
as I squeak
as I move
as I shove
as I struggle
as I twist
as I turn
as I scream
as I push
as I plead
as I give up
as I bleed
...that it hurts
