Should insects/bugs have the same rights as bigger Animals like dogs and cats?

Do you believe insects/bugs like moths, flies, butterflies, grasshoppers, spiders, and other insects should have the same rights as animals like dogs, cats, horses, and bigger animals?

I think if an insect is needed for the survival of bats, frogs, turtles, and other insect eating animals like ant eaters, ducks, etc then humans should not interfere with the insects and just let the animals eat them.

Plus, endangered insects which are almost extinct should also be not killed since they might be useful for education purposes.

yes, so one day when they deiced to kill us due to the fact they outnumber us we can say we care.


But it be impossible to hold up the laws.

A lot of bugs like Bees are very useful for producing honey, and other food and materials, so not bugs are out to kill, but provide a source of food like honey for humans.

But, I think if kids go around town, and use a gun to shoot at bee hives then they should be punish since the bees are needed to make plants like flowers bloom, food like honey and honeycomb for humans, and animals to eat.

I think some vegetables and fruit trees also rely on bees for survival.

that might cause problems if a city needs to remove a tree or something that has protected insects living on it.

if you're talking about animal equity, then yes of course, insects are also animals.

If they are insects that are important for conservation of a certain species if that is the only thing that particular species eats, then yes they should be protected.

If it is an insect that is important to humans, such as honey bees, leeches, or mosquitos whose saliva is being studied for an HIV/AIDS vaccine (since the virus is not transmitted to the uninfected if an infected person is bit first) then yes they should be protected.

If it is an insect like roaches, termites, and other vermin and rodents that can spread diseases and cause damage, etc., then hell no they should not be protected and should be exterminated.

Endangered insects are already protected i think. But no, i don't think insects/bugs should have the same rights as bigger animals cause if i wake up at night and find a spider next to my face i'm punching it to death 0.o these things creep me out.

 

[GramercyPark]

+1 For the different topic.
Yes they should have the same rights, would they need a new organization?
Or do they fall under Peta? What will the bug eaters do for protein if we outlaw them?

 

[sumicool7]

I don't think there is a need for an insect right for each and every insect out in the wild!
But I strongly support the same cause for the endangered species that soon will become extinct
Specially the beautiful butterflies

 

[GracefulAssassin]

No. I hate bugs. lol

 

[Claraviolet]

I hope not ...no matter how hypocritical it may sound.
I just can't imagine people letting all sorts of insects live because of these rights.
I will probably kill myself first before these rights got announced.
