    To add to the comments; many people and laws still view animals as objects, to do with as one pleases. I still hear americans -i’m from europe- talking about animals as ‘it’.

    Edit; typo

      Same in Europe though. In fact “it” is just the proper pronoun for a lot of animals in gendered European languages.
