1. What is the best way to reduce the overpopulation of animals in animal control?
2. Permitting humane euthanizations in animal shelters as long as the animal is under severe health obstructions or cannot be helped by a veterinarian.
3. Details:
-According to PETA, an animal organization, an animal may be permitted to be euthanized humanely only if the animal is aged, sick, injured, dying or too aggressive.
- According to the ASPCA, they say an animal has the right to be released from suffering if such cruelties like malnutrition, disease or trauma have been encountered by the animal.
-According to the AHC, or Animal Healthcare Center, euthanasia is a pain-free and stress- free experience for an animal in a shelter.
4. An article I found by PETA, one of the most extreme animal rights groups titled, "Why We Euthanize" lay over the extreme conditions in which they euthanize animals. They say, if only an animal is dying, severely injured, too aggressive shall it be put to sleep humanely. Even though many see euthanizations as an inhumane act, even PETA consider euthanizing at the worst possible consequences, which does reduce overpopulation. There are so many injured dogs that come into shelters that are either too injured to help, or the costs are too high to risk, so by humanely euthanizing, this will reduce that strain of overpopulation.
5. I plan next to look into other well know animal organizations and see their point of views on euthanizing, how many euthanizations they produce and look into kill shelters on why they do not euthanizing humanely.
