Animal Captivity


The bear must just recently be captured. It will just be downhill from here, the bear may be shipped off to foriegn lands and be trained cruelly in circuses; or they could become a rich man's "pet".
Most captured aniamls will not recieve freedom again, it is like a life sentence. To forever live in misery until their death. Human convicts are sent to life sentences because of them dooing horrible misdeeds and crimes. What have the animals done to deserve this? Although they are animals, they should be respected. Although they are animals, they still have a life, a soul. Although they are animals, they should be given a right. If not, we humans are simply inhumane, misusing our power of limitless knowledge.
Have you noticed the bear's eyes? I feel that they are the most significant part of the picture, They express a sense of hope and longingness. Such hope is futile, its fate is most likely eternal captivity. It can never be free again, they can only drean of their former habitat. The look in the eyes may just bring a tear to your eyes. However, one should not just stand at the sidelines, one should at least do something to help, simply by not supporting the illegal pet trade is a way.

Please read the instructions carefully; you need to include a human figure in your discussion. The discussion also does not follow the required structure; it is not supposed to be a reflection about an issue.
