They Deserve Rights Too

 As a group we had trouble picking our topic. We originally were going to make a website

about the drug wars on the border. For us we had to think of something that most people

wouldn’t think of, something unique. After a week, we decided. To us this was the best topic to

the world for us. We all were hanging out at our park when we saw a dog barking. He was

skinny and to us it seem like he wanted to be free. We thought about all our dogs and their

faces if they were treated like the one that we saw. This were our topic was brought upon.

After school we went to the public library to see if they had any books on this topic. We

found one book. The book was called”Animal Rights.” This book had much information for us to

use on our website. However, we still got more books through the library book trade. We would

meet up every day over there. In the end, the library was a lot of help to us. Also, Luis’ sister

gave us several brochures and magazines that talked about animal rights. These were very

helpful because they come from the very big animal activist groups such as PETA.

We selected our presentation category by considering which one we can write the most

information on. This is when we came down to the website. Two of us already had experience

in history fair. One of us two had done a website just the previous year so we were pretty

confident with our choice. And this would also be a good experience for our youngest member

of our group. Plus, this would make it easier for us to cooperate on the project. We created our

project by studying our brochures and information. We then went to Weebly to start our

website. We picked our website background, chose our pictures, and then just went to

business.
 Animal rights is one of the biggest debate around the world. We thought that this would

be really great. The diplomacy comes in with all the laws that are constantly passed to at least

help these animals a lot. There are many successes in animal rights that come no matter what it

is. They range from laws passed to going vegan. The failures come from all of the deaths that

animals suffer from every year. There are consequences for the people who treat animals

badly.
