In the beginning God gave man dominion over all the animals, and with that authority came the responsibility which continues today.
After his fall into sin man was granted to include animals
as his food and for his needs, and God placed fear of man on the animals, so
that no longer would they naturally trust him. However through greed and
mismanagement, man has become the animals' greatest foe and destroyer. The same
fallen mind of sin in man has caused the uninhibited killing and devastation of
animals, not always for need or food, and in many cases to the point of
extinction. The original responsibility which came with the God-given
authority, to manage and be a steward of God's rich creation, to the honour of the
Creator, is something for which man remains accountable to God.
