Request for exemplary punishments for people who mistreat, torture or kill animals in Italy

After the recent cases occurred in Sardinia and Manfredonia,where dogs were killed with extreme cruelty and barbarism,I ask once and for all the recognition of the rights of every species of animals as living beings and a legislation in Italy that really protects and safeguards them.At the same time I ask that people who are guilty of crimes against animals are punished severely without extenuating circumstances.
