To Get YouTube to Remove Animal Cruelty Videos

There are many, many digusting videos on YouTube showing animal cruelty. Although these videos have been flagged and commented on many, many times, YouTube refuses to remove them. These are a couple examples.

**Warning: These videos are graphic and you may not want to watch them.

Here are two disgusting videos. I personally could not bring myself to watch them. I got the gist of them from the comments. Apparently, budgies are fed to snakes and people laugh at it.

Snakes do have to eat, but budgies are not part of their diet. Most snakes will eat already dead food anyways. A snake in the wild would eat a budgie on a very rare occasion. Actually, the budgie can injure the snake because they can bite very hard. There isn't such a thing as "feeder budgies" either. The jerks who posted these videos went as far to say the little bird "enjoyed" the experience.

There are many other videos, including guinea pigs being forced to swim, dogs being strangled and killed, dogfighting, horses tripping, and more.

There was even a disgraceful video of a snake eating a rabbit on a trampoline. The disgusting title of the video was "Snake Eats Rabbit on Trampoline - Better Version". It is still up on YouTube. In the horrid videos of snakes eating budgies, the morons who posted it were still insisting it was "cool". They claimed they would buy a baby ferret to feed to the snake. They were probably bluffing to irritate people, but it was still offensive.

YouTube is for anyone over 13...so imagine kids viewing these awful videos! This teaches them that it is "cool" and "funny" to abuse & kill animals, the way people are laughing in the videos and the way some comments say things like "Great video!" Children who abuse and kill animals grow up to do the same thing to people!

There were also two videos of children abusing a Sun Conure, during this an adult was sitting nearby. But in the end, nasty comments did the trick and the user removed this videos. YouTube was contacted many times yet they claimed the video "attracted people" and we were "a bunch of bird freaks". Another disgraceful video of a cockatoo drinking beer was also on YT, but in the end the user removed it...NOT YOUTUBE.

YouTube is also hypocritical. This is what their rules say. "Don't post videos showing bad stuff like animal abuse, drug abuse, or bomb making. Graphic or gratuitous violence is not allowed. If your video shows someone getting hurt, attacked, or humiliated, don't post it."

They say that, but do they do it? No.

You see, we may not be able to get rid of all cruelty in this world. We cannot undo what has already been done. We cannot bring the innocent animals who were cruelly killed back to life. But we can do our part. If the morons who make these horrendous videos have nowhere to post them and get attention, they will hopefully stop making them. We can prevent more damage from happening.

What we also need YouTube to do is when there is a highly abusive video, they should send the person's information off to the proper authorities (depending on the country). These jerks can't get away with such horrible cruelty!
