Which statement best describes cruelty to animals?

Both A and B

Cruelty to animals encompasses deliberate acts that cause unjustified suffering, including both intentionally inflicting inhuman injury or pain and actions that are cruel or unnecessarily harm an animal by beating, maiming, mutilating, or killing it. The best choice recognizes that both aspects describe cruelty, giving a fuller, more accurate picture than a single-statement description. The other options isolate only one facet or suggest none, which doesn’t capture the full concept.

Willing inflicts inhuman injury or pain

Cruelly or unnecessarily beats, maims, mutilates, or kills any animal
