Cause an animal that kills someone is euthanized
Kinda makes charges a little redundant. |

Because they lose out everytime we kill and eat them for dinner. |

If a dog kills someone they don't bother to charge the dog, they just kill it. Same with a bear. They can't really defend themselves in court and have no money to pay for a lawyer. |

Murder is the unlawful killing of a human person with malice aforethought, as defined in Common Law countries. Murder is generally distinguished from other forms of homicide by the elements of malice aforethought and the lack of lawful justification.
As animals tend not to have "elements of malice aforethought" and "the lack of lawful justification" - it would be difficult to prove beyond reasonable doubt that it was murder. It would be, I imagine, more a self-defense situation. |

Because animals aren't legal citizens, they aren't under the protection of the law, so therefor they aren't to be punished by it. |

Humans are animals and get charged with murder all the time. Other species lack a capacity for determining good and evil, and therefore cannot be held criminally liable for their actions. They can only be killed if they are deemed too great of a risk to the public health. |

If an animal kills a person, it is almost always destroyed, even if it had a good reason for what it did. |

Hahaha! ........you were joking right? |

They kind of do. If it's a pet, they are usuallu euthanized. And if the animal is wild, someone usually shoots them. |

It is a very simple answer.....Because they are non-human animals. |

Generally, if an animal kills a human, it gets killed in response. |

How come we don't get charged for murder when we kill animals?
Why should they when we don't? |

Because as far as they know it they are either getting food, or they are intimidated by us and will attack us. Its mainly their instinct that does that. like our instinct is to run away when we are scared. Also they kill to get rid of any competition for food, a mate. so we can't really say that it is fair that they get convicted for MURDER. |

animals dnt kill because they want to.. sometimes they kill in order to defend themselves or because they feel in danger.. Animals dnt think like humans do.. Your comparing animals to humans.. its like saying why dnt animals talk if we do.. |
|

because we as humans are not guided my instict.. what makes us different from animals is the ability to distinguish between right and wrong and the ability to reason |
|

where is everybody?
 |
maybe the same reason our dirty laundry left on the floor doesn't get charged with littering! |

Dogs that kill usually have been abused or have had traumatic experiences. Dogs don't just kill for no reason. Plus, they have different memory than us, so they wouldn't know what they were being punished for. |

ppl 'murder' animals all of the time...FOR FUN!!!!

|

lil miss adorable
 |
Becuause when animals kill it is their way of life they do not know any better they are simply trying ti survive |
|

Because animals act out of instinct or training, you could charge the person that trained the animal to kill.
But to even sugest this wow what is your IQ, can you even tie your own shoes???????? |
|

i need help
|
its because since animals cannot communicate with humans and tell us why they did something they are considered to not have known any better.
its usually blamed on the owner for training them to be violent |

who cares about "fair" animals don't have any "rights." at least i don't think they should. all their good 4 is eating. and sum of them can be pets, but if they die, who cares. not me. |

Well you know unfortunately how humans are...we eat animals so if an animal gets killed well then we might as well ALL get charged/arrested then. The only winners that stand will probably be vegetarians =/ Very interesting question, I like how you think already and I respect what you were asking...I've asked people that before too. Humans are funny creatures and hypocrites =S |

Animals kill for completely different reasons than humans.
Animals kill for food, to survive.
They don't kill with malicious intent, as in committing violent crimes. |
