How Social Consciousness Are You To All Animals

Even if you are not a pet owner or animal lover, respect the right of wild animals and other people’s pets to live without risk of harm from your carelessness.

Here’s what you can do to protect innocent animals from harm and carelessness:

• Litter Appropriately: Do not leave fish or chicken bones in public places. Apart form the fact that you will be littering, you could also lead someone else’s dog or cat to pounce on your leftovers—even a dog being walked on leash may lunge aside to gulp food down. Dogs and cats can choke to death on bones, so do not allow your lack of consideration to result in some poor pet owner carrying a dead animal home from a walk.
• Trap Appropriately: If you have set out a sticky rat trap, please keep it covered during the day. Set it out only at night in a corner of the kitchen, not outdoors. Birds and other innocent animals like garden lizards sometimes land on such traps and get stuck. They usually have to be killed, because there is almost no way of freeing them from the sticky substance without breaking their fragile bodies.
• Poison Appropriately: Never leave pesticides, rat poison, or corrosive liquids where innocent animals can chance upon them.
• Drive Appropriately: Drive well within speed limits especially in residential areas. Not only It is not just for pets who are roaming around the neighborhood but also look out for kids. Slow down even more if you see a runaway dog or frightened cat dashing around on the road.
