Cease Dissection of Frogs

To:  Philippine Government

Hello and Greetings to all. I am a student and at a certain year in high school where frog dissection is required in our Biology subject. Now I know how important this may seem for students to understand anatomy or whatever, but I do have reason to believe that there are other ways in which this can be implemented. I present to you all the beauty that is technology. There is such a thing as the virtual frog dissection software. Now, you may say that I am completely off the line and am going beyond to simply stop the dissection of a number of frogs, but think of this. They are living, breathing animals. They are also made by God, just like we are, so don't you think they deserve just as much respect as we do? To earn respect, you need to respect others yourself.

Also, don't you think its a bit unfair that we're dissecting all these poor animals. If you look at what is happening in our world these past few years, you'll notice the enormous amount of changes in our environment. There's climate change because of the destruction of the environment, there's the loss of trees because of illegal logging, which then causes floods that kill hundreds of people every year and destroys the habitats of animals which can lead to their extinction. Who made the things that causes climate change? We did. Who continually cut down trees for their own benefit? We do. Ask yourself, are we the only ones affected by these? No. All living things are. Just because we can make and do these stuff doesn't mean that we should. Just because we deem ourselves superior to these poor frogs doesn't give us the right to go on collecting them and dissecting them one by one.

I simply urge you to sign my petition and let your voice be heard, because frankly, we do have a right to that. If that isn't respected, then we have a lot to think about our actions. SAVE THE FROGS!

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
