Hunting should be banned

  Hunting is an activity that people do when they kill animals for enjoyment. It is also called a sport, but I don't think it is a sport. Killing animals isn't good at all. Hunting is really bad because it might destroy ecosystems, animals will experience pain and suffering, and also they can have feelings. 100 million animals are hunted every year, and that is a bad thing. That's why hunting should be prohibited.

100 million animals are dying each year by hunting, and if it continues at this rate, some of the animals might become extinct and only one kind of spices will expand. That is because the animals that expand don't have natural predators that will eat them. Also, we could die if most of the animal spices will become extinct because there will not be enough food for everyone on the planet. People say that in over 100 years from now, 50% of all the animals will be extinct and that would destroy the ecosystem.

Even if the wounded animals excape from the hunters, they will starve and eventually die. They will experience pain and suffering and die a painful death. It will be horrible for them to suffer. They can't find food because they are hurt, or get eaten by other animals. I think that it is horrible to feel that pain. If there is a wolf that is hurt, the whole pack can die because there will be no leader. All of then will die of hunger, so we shouldn't hurt animals.

If animals have feelings, they will be sad if their family dies. If one of your family member dies, you will be sad, so animals will be sad too. Animals might think like humans do, if they could think and express themselves. They could be sad or have feelings. They will hate us because we kill them they will feel hopeless, anger, and pain too. I think animals are like humans because one of my dogs feel excited where there is another dog around him.


Animals hunting will cause a lot of disaster to our community and their animal family too, so we shouldn't hunt any of them. We go hunting because we enjoy but they will not feel any kind of joy at all. If we were hunted by the animals we would not like it nor would we feel happy about it. I'm positive we wouldn't. So, we should not hunt them at all as well.
