Animal Cruelty (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781288372119)

The problem of animal cruelty includes many kinds of mistreatment, from temporarily failing to provide essential care to the malicious killing or repeated torturing of an animal. Every state defines animal cruelty differently, both in terms of the specific actions that are prohibited and the categories of animals that are protected. Animal Cruelty begins by describing the problem of animal cruelty and reviewing factors that increase its risks. It then identifies a series of questions to help you analyze your local animal-cruelty problem. Finally, it reviews responses to the problem and what is known about these from evaluative research and police practice.
