-Yes, animal welfare laws should include provisions for animals being used for entertainment. Whether the animals are being mistreated at home or for entertainment, it is still cruelty either way and there should be actions taken against it. Forms of entertainment such as circuses, should be watched carefully to make sure that what the company is doing to these animals is ethical.
Explain why some animal rights activists view horse racing and circuses as cruel to animals.
-Some animal rights activists see horse racing and circuses as cruel because these things put animals into situations that they would not naturally face. Horses probably don't naturally run as much as they do at horse racing tracks, and lions and elephants don't naturally interact with humans and do tricks for people. The animals that are in circuses probably also face harsh living conditions, being unable to ever roam freely in the wild.
Who should regulate the animal entertainment industry?
-Animal rights organizations should be able to regulate the animal entertainment industry. They should be able to regulate this industry because they know best about how animals need to be treated. They should be able to monitor how these industries are treating animals and should be able to determine whether or not these actions should be legal.
