O PAPEL DAS REDES SOCIAIS NA DENÚNCIA DE MAUS TRATOS AOS ANIMAIS NA CIDADE DE CERES - GO

Abstract

Social networks have become an effective communication channel with significant reach in disseminating information related to animal abuse and abandonment. This study aims to analyze the role played by social networks in defending animal abuse in the city of Ceres – GO. The methodology adopted is a literature review, through bibliographic and exploratory research through books, articles, dissertations and theses, which have the capacity to clarify the problem constituted in the study. The social networks used, NGOs such as Cãopanheiro and support groups have been actively engaged in promoting campaigns, publicizing cases of mistreatment and raising awareness among the population. It is observed that social networks have played a fundamental role in promoting responsible adoption. By sharing photos and information about animals available for adoption, these platforms allow a greater number of people to have access to these animals looking for a new home. This helps to reduce the number of abandoned animals exposed to mistreatment. Given this, it is clear that social networks have played a significant role in defending against animal abuse in Ceres - GO. Through these platforms, awareness is increased, responsible adoption is encouraged and the community is mobilized for animal protection actions.
