Abstract

France is one of the countries that start to establish and improve animal protection laws at an early stage. Now, it has a relatively complete legal system for animal protection. In contrast, China still has a lot to improve in this area. Therefore, it is particularly important to promote the development of animal protection policies in China. This paper presents the development of animal protection policies in France and summarizes the current problems existing in China. In addition, the author also proposes feasible plans for the future development of animal protection in China. To conclude, France has gone through the banning of public cruelty to animals in 1850 to the banning of cruelty to domesticated animals in 1959. Today, animal shows are being banned in France, and from 2024, the sale of pets in any form will also be banned in France. Besides, for China’s future development in animal protection, there are mainly two steps of improvement. The first step is to enforce education about animal protection for children in primary and middle schools, so as to increase the awareness of animal protection for the next generation. And the next move is to take an experimental step, which is to build an animal farm with video surveillance to prevent the maltreatment of animals, thus eliminating cruelty to animals and pushing the establishment and improvement of related regulations and policies.
