Abstract

The article deals with the use of animals against humans and other representatives of the animal world. Such violence is actually recognized as a kind of instrumental coercion. At the same time, ethnozoological violence is considered as an ethnocultural phenomenon based on the mental heritage of previous generations. It is argued that violence with the use of animals has a socio-psychological origin, which is typical for most States. As a phenomenon of human practice, it is a generic concept in relation to its extreme form – criminal violence. Accordingly, any coercive influence on other people using animals is a model for criminal acts in the form of harm to human life or health. Consideration of ethnozoological violence in any aspect as a global social phenomenon or as a private event has shown that these forms always obey general socio-psychological laws.
