Since the beginning of known history, humans have tried to maintain their dominance over other animals. As humanity began to grow intellectually and socially, it became apparent that many feeling beings were being discriminated against, that is, having their rights taken way from them because of what class the belonged to.

A world without animals is like a man with no soul. I for one can't imagine a world without animals. Animals and humans need each other to survive. We humans are very selfish. We only care for ourselves not for the others. I guess it must be human nature. We don't realize it fully that the animals are there for a reason.

When injected into a female animal, it prevented the female animal from bearing young because the vaccine interferes with the female's ovaries. This process is called immunocontraception. This process is useful to control the number of animals populating the forests because our growing population is in need for more living space. The days when we humans conserve nature by just leaving it be are just a mere thing of the past. We have entered a new era whereby we must take responsibility into our own hands.
