Revoke the license of the Favela PitBull company

Pablo Sepulvida, owner of Favela Pitbull Company, is one of the criminals who participated in the fight in MAIRIPORA / SP.

Pitbull Games or Game Dog, also known as Pit Gameness, is a lawful Brazilian canine competition sport where pit bull dogs participate in long jump, free jump, vertical ascent and traction versus speed events. The sport was created in Brazil and officially emerged in April 2004.

We have Federal Law 9.605 / 98, which also deals with the environment and harmful behavior, an article that cites animals, which provides for the application of punishment in cases of abuse, injury or mutilation of wild animals. , domestic or domesticated, native or exotic.

Federal Law 9,605 / 98

Art. 32. Practicing abuse, abuse, injury or mutilation of domestic or exotic domestic or exotic wild animals:

Penalty: three months to one year detention and fine.

Paragraph 1. The same sanctions apply to those who perform painful or cruel experiments on live animals, even for didactic or scientific purposes, when there are alternative resources.

§ 2 The penalty increases from one sixth to one third if the death of the animal occurs.

Recently, the bill was passed, PL 2833/11, which is currently being examined by the Federal Senate, which according to the text, the penalty for cases of killing dogs or cats will have a prison sentence of 1 to 3 years. . The exception will be for euthanasia if the animal is in the process of dying and irreversible death, provided it is done in a controlled and assisted manner.

Note that we are still very weak in terms of Animal Rights, we are discussing abuse, while other countries are discussing Rights, in Brazil the animal is still treated as "goods", it is inserted in Civil Law, when It is a dispute or in the Direct Environment, and countries like France, Argentina stand out for recognizing the animal as beings.

France, in my opinion, stands out by recognizing animals as "sensitive" beings. By scientific definition, sensitivity is the ability to feel, many philosophers understand that sensations are pain or agony, or emotions, such as fear or anxiety are near subjective states of thought and are present in most animal species.

Animal sensitivity makes you feel consciously, you realize something that many people have already understood, animals can experience their own feelings: feel pain, love, happiness, anger, joy, friendship and many other feelings.
