An animal activist is someone who has love for all kinds of animals. They fight for the right of animals because animals cannot speak for themselves.

     Animal activists must love animals and fight against the mistreatment of animals. Becoming an animal activist will allow you to fight against cruelty.

     If you are interested in forming a group or helping other organizations, you should know the rights that animals already have and what rights those organizations are working to get for animals. Knowing this will prepare you to help the organizations in their journey or even help you to set a new law yourself.

     There are a lot of things you need to learn about being an animal activist. One of the key things is to always fight for what you believe is right.

     You can attend hearings (听证会) at city halls and other important meetings. Through these you can learn what is going on and how people present their cases in front of a judge. In addition, some organizations have newsletters (时事通讯) that will let you know all the latest information on animal rights.

     As an animal activist you can also attend protests (抗议). Protests are a great way of making your point understood by companies and the media. Protesters often carry signs to show what they are trying to do. They also go on marches, telling people that they all have the same aim and that they will continue to protest until their aims are achieved.
