Is my speech ok..? International Audience?

Question by Josh* Brisbane Broncos*: Is my speech ok..? International Audience?
Ok this is my speech for English. It is due tomorrow and I want to know if there are any obvious mistakes? And please give it a modest mark like A-, B etc.


Thousands of animals all over the world are forced to do what we humans want. They are forced to balance on balls, jump via rings on fire, fight their own family members and a lot far more, just to be thrown back into a cold, modest cage where they struggle just to turn around.

Good Morning Ladies and Gentleman. My name is Josh Patten and right now I'm going to be talking to you about making use of animals in entertainment. I'll explain the realities of fighting bulls, dogs and cocks as well as the conditions that circus animals ought to put up with.

Bullfighting is regarded as a sport. Bullfighting is a traditional spectacle associated with Spain, Portugal, some cities in southern France and a number of Latin American countries, in which 1 or a lot more bulls are ritually killed in a bullring as a public spectacle. Approximately 10,000 Bulls are killed annually through the act of bullfighting. In reality it is no contest. The Matador (Spanish for killer) wields a sharp sword against a confused, psychologically tormented and energy depleted bull. Scientists have proven that 20% of bulls are drugged before the fight, which equals to approximately 500 bulls. Most bulls are also given 'shaving' this is where they saw a couple of inches off the bull's horns. This is to give the matador even more of a chance to turn out to be the victor.

Let's move onto dogs, 'man's finest friend,' is forced to fight every other to the death. Dog fighting is an illegal blood sport that pits dogs against 1 one more for spectator entertainment, and frequently betting. It is NOT in a dog's nature to begin attacking one an additional for no reason. Fighting is what we humans teach them to do. We hurt them, anger them, just to make them attack their own type or even their own family members. Animals ought to have no lesser rights than what we deserve. Is it cool to abuse babies? NO. So why is it any distinct to see 'man's greatest friend' becoming tortured and abused? Most of these dogs live on chains for their whole life.

This illegal practice is still continued in many areas because dogs are so easy to acquire. Another animal used for fighting, the rooster, is a small more challenging for the average person to keep in their property. Cock Fighting is where two roosters fight each and every other to the death. These roosters get next to no treatment to their injuries and are thrown away following, as if they had been trash. You may possibly be thinking. Don't roosters fight each and every other anyway? Yes, they do, but these fights are only for territory or for a mate. These natural fights are normally short and don't result in key injuries. In cockfights, the roosters are generally equipped with razor sharp blades that can puncture lungs, break bones and pierce eyes. 1 of the more shocking parts to cockfighting is that adults often bring children to them. This encourages children to take pleasure in violence and that animal cruelty is ok.

So far, I've talked only about animals utilised for gruesome showings with death as the ultimate goal to decide the winner. That, nonetheless, isn't always the case when it comes to animal abuse and animal entertainment. What I'm talking about is the circus.
Most families love the circus. With the clowns, jugglers, and the trapeze and of course the animals, that appear so happy on stage. In reality, these animals are miserable. These 'trainers' use bull hooks, sticks, whips and electric prods. They have to tear these animals down psychologically, just before they can teach these animals 'tricks.'
Huge circuses travel approximately 48 weeks out of the year and cover thousands of miles. Some circuses go to warmer states in the summer since residents are accustomed to the heat, even although the animals might be forced to suffer in extreme temperatures. The identical unfortunate scenario occurs in the winter in colder areas.
When travelling, the animals are kept in cages with barely sufficient room to turn around. We do not need animals in circuses they provide sufficient entertainment as it is. For example Cirque du Soleil. The most known circus in the whole world uses no animals whatsoever. Cirque du Soleil is a circus where only humans are performing tricks and the standard is a lot higher than other animal circuses. As of 2008 over 700 Million men and women had seen a Cirque du Soleil performance.



Many countries have banned bullfighting due to the fact it is barbaric. The first Spanish Autonomous Country to ban bull fighting was the Canary Islands who also heavily discourage all forms of animal cruelty besides cock fighting which is standard. Animal abusers really should be treated like a child abuser. These inhumane acts of abuse should not go be treated lightly. They really should be locked up with out hesitation. Recently Ipswich and the Gold Coast have banned all exotic animals in circuses. Ipswich being the 1st ever Queensland Council to do so. This is the beg
@Mango-Seriously? If so thanks for the Enormous compliment (:

Answer by Bacchus
Your ending seems really abrupt. I think it may well be cut off by the words limitation to this forum.

Essay looks ok. The math in bullfighting does add up. 10,000 bulls killed annually. Is the 20% related to this 10,000? due to the fact 20% of 10,000 is 2,000. If it is not related, then you may well want to explain further.
