Animals vs. Humans: Who Really Calls Earth Home?

Animals vs. Humans: Who Really Calls Earth Home?

Many of us humans here on earth believe that we can do whatever we want to animals because we call this place home. Many of us don't realize that the animals called this place home before we did. I'm not gonna get all religious with post but I do want to say that God put animals on earth before he did humans. I just want to say that not to long ago I read a post that some girl put up on Facebook. Now in this post she was complaining about all the deer being at a campsite where her and her family were camping at. In this post she had said " I wish we would have brought our guns so we could have went hunting. I am sick and tired of animals taking over our parks and campsites. Where do they get off thinking they belong here. They either belong on my plate or in a zoo." Now after reading this I got very upset and wanted to comment so bad about how stupid and uneducated this girls was. How can any human think that Earth belongs to them and them only. Animals were here before we were and as much as it hurts to say this animals are the only reason we have meat to eat. Just think about a world with no animals. We as humanity would not have meat, eggs, milk, cheese, and other foods. 

Now this post isn't about what animals offer us as a meal. This post is about how we treat animals. There a lot of people in the world that love animals and I am one of those people but there more people in the world who hate animals. i mean look at poachers who poach certain animals for money. That is wrong on so many level because most of the animals that are being poached are becoming extinct. A lot of people will kill and animal for no reason at all. But the one thing that really pisses me off with humanity is when they accuse animals of being violent towards humans. For example when a tiger or loin at the zoo or circus attacks and kills a trainer or zoo keeper its the animals faults but in reality its really the trainer or zoo keepers fault. I don't blame the animals for attacking humans because humans are capturing them for their homes and using them for entertainment. These are wild animals and they don't belong in captivity. When a shark attacks a surfer or swimmer the shark is to blame when it is really the surfer and swimmer who is the blame. If you saw a stranger creeping around your home your first thought is intruder and your instinct is to attack to protect yourself and family.

Animals think the same as we do. A shark sees a surfer or swimmer as an intruder in it's home so it attacks. It's not targeting us as a meal it's just trying to protect itself. Animals are really no different from us. They live to survive and care of themselves and their families just like we do. So why do we treat them as if their different? We do this because we strive to be at the top of the food chain. I mean I believe we as humans murder more humans a year then animals do humans. I also believe that we are not at the top of the food chain and never will be because we are not meant to be. I believe the top of the food chain belongs to whatever species can survive for many years. We as humans cannot survive for many years. Most of us nowadays freak out when we don't have our internet, cellphones, cable, TV's, vehicles etc. Animals don't have to worry about things like that and they are built for survival and to be honest we weren't. So in the end after weighing all the pros and cons I can happily say the animals are number one on earth. They are at the top of the food like they have been since the beginning of time. They have the right to call earth home more then we do. We came here and took over their homes when we started tearing down their homes to build ours. Animals should be treated with respect not like outcast. They have every right to attack and hurt us because they are just protecting their homes, families, and themselves. There're doing to us what we have done to them for years. If we would just stop hurting them and show them that we care for them and understand them then I know they will show us the same respect back.
