I am signing because I believe that people need to receive a much stronger and harsh punishment for their abuse and cruelty towards animals. People have been getting away with their horrible crimes for way to long.

Animals are defenceless. They deserve our protection and there should be a harsh punishment for those who are cruel to them. Rango deserve justice.

It is heartbreaking to see the amount of animal abuse happening lately. It needs to end and harsher sentences need to be given to the culprits

The vile practices of those who abuse and are cruel to any animal must be punished as severely as possible. Of all the living beings on this planet, animals are the most vulnerable to man's inhumanity and must be strongly protected by law.

Colleen Balfour (Durban, 2019-06-07)

Animal cruelty is unacceptable. Humans should KNOW better since we supposed to be the more intelligent species. Some humans should not be allowed to breath oxygen if they hurt animals, children or the elderly. Cowards .

Colette Spenceley (Durban, 2019-06-07)

This owner needs to rot in jail. How can you do this to your animals, and then sleep at night with a full tummy and knowing that your dog is starving. They need to be punished with jail sentence and no fine. All the people in that household is guilty.

I believe every human being inflicting psin or abuse on a defensless animal should be given the same sentencing as abuse on another human being. If they can abuse animals they will definately abuse children as they are psychologically damaged human beings

Cheryl Ross (Durban, 2019-06-07)

I believe all actions have consequences, and the consequence for animal cruelty and neglect should be harsh, as animals do not have the ability to speak up for themselves.

Dogs are sentient beings. They feel pain just like we do. They need food, shelter, water, love and care just like we do. Let this revolting man face the justice that he deserves for treating his animal so inhumanely. Let Rango's death count for something.

Animals deserve our love and respect and need to be treated with the same respect we treat humans. Animal cruelty should be seen in the same light as if a child was treated in this manner.

Animals have souls and feelings. Abuse of any kind is unacceptable and must have the harshest possible sentence. If you can hurt an animal you will have no conscious hurting a human just the same.

I strongly believe in having a voice for the voiceless. Animals do not deserve abuse by human hands. Any form of neglect should be result in max sentence. How much evidence is enough when it is clear of abuse and neglect of animals.

Jenni Theron (Durban, 2019-06-09)

Animals, disabled people, the elderly and children are the most vulnerable groups, and need protection. Abusers of these groups deserve the harshest punishment and to never be allowed access to animals again.
