Actor Park Eun-suk, who has risen to stardom with the SBS drama’Penthouse’, explained to the controversy over the habitual dissemination of companion animals, ″The part we could not be with due to unavoidable circumstances and circumstances.”
There are high voices of criticism that “that’s a wave” to Park Eun-seok’s explanation that is difficult to understand. The act was sent to acquaintances without taking responsibility until the end, rhyming with’unavoidable circumstances’.
People who respect animal rights and life point out that even if the situation is bad and you spend a while, you should bring the animal back when the situation improves, and you should not’replace’ the existing animal with a new animal. Accordingly, suspicion arises that Park Eun-seok is not an’animal horror’.
‘Animal Horror’ collects animals as if collecting objects
Animal hoarder refers to those who collect animals rather than raise them. This behavior is called animal hoarding.
The Animal Freedom Association explained that simply raising a lot of animals is not an animal hoarding. The group made it clear that “animal hoarding is to increase the number of animals excessively and to neglect the harsh environment without considering the conditions for raising animals.”
If someone is eager to collect and display dolls or toys rather than taking care of pets, it is worth questioning the Animal Horde.
Explicit punishable animal cruelty
Animal hordes like this are the obvious’animal cruelty’ that is legally punished.
The revised legislation of the Animal Protection Act, which has been in effect since 2018, stipulated that animal abuse is an act that violates the rearing and management obligations for companion animals and causes injury or disease to animals. At this time, the companion animals are six types of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, guinea pigs, and hamsters.
In case of violation, imprisonment for not more than two years or a fine of not more than 20 million won is required. If a pet dies due to animal hoarding, he will be sentenced to three years in prison or a fine of not more than 30 million won.
