you are not wrong to draw this paralell. If humans can't treat eachother well, how little chance do animals have?

Not everyone care about animal well being, I certainly don't, to me they are less than human.

Animals do lots of things we consider unethical and unacceptable for humans to do.

"have animals" is very anthropocentrist

Not really. The animals don't deserve this treatment.

Shame on you, the well-being of humans should be more important than an animal.

Why people desperately need to set themselves apart from other animals? Seems like the mass killings of Chickens, Cows, Pigs and so on make some uncomfortable.
