10. Egypt
Score – 77
Egypt has gone through a lot in recent years, but its laws remain, offering some protection to animals. The country has a ban on cruelty to animals, although the Ministry of Agriculture needs to specify by decree when it actually applies. Given the confusing law system set in place, it’s improbable this law actually gets implemented a lot. The Penal Code further covers deliberately killing or poisoning animals used for riding, carrying, towing or any type of livestock, as well as tame animals.
