El delito de maltrato a los animales. El maltrato legislativo a su protección

Abstract

The article denounces that the guardianship that offers the civil and administrative legislation as for protection of the animals is insufficient. It exposes that, though the penal legislation might have turned into a valid instrument to improve and to reinforce this protection, the penal modifications have been only an attempt of silencing the demands( lawsuits) that were coming from sectors, sensitive of the civil society with the problem of the animal(rude) mistreatment. His conclusion is that the need of a reform imposes on itself in penal matter that tutele in an effective way the rights of the animals that are an object of mistreatment.
