Animal Cruelty, also called animal abuse, animal neglect or Cruelty to animals, is the infliction by omission (animal neglect) or by commission by humans of suffering or harm upon any non-human. More narrowly, it can be the causing of harm or suffering for specific achievement, such as killing animals for food, their fur or even their tusks; opinions differ about the extent of cruelty associated with a given method of slaughter.
