Are the animals abused? The little I have observed seems to be humans being abused by the animals. I guess calf roping might be mildly abusive but they always jump up (the calves I mean) and run merrily away.

What about horse racing? I wouldn't like being made to run a long way.

What about animals in movies? Can we trust them when they tell us that no animals were harmed in the making if this film?

I am a serious animal lover but I consider PETA to be a gang of nut cases who worry over the social lives of chickens, etc.
