    This thesis, titled "The Legal Protection of Animal Rights in the Ecuadorian Criminal System," examines the Ecuadorian legal framework regarding animal rights protection, with a focus on the criminal justice system. In recent years, animal abuse has become a growing public concern, leading to the creation of laws aimed at ensuring animal welfare and penalizing abusive behavior. However, the enforcement of these laws still faces significant challenges. The main objective of this research is to assess the effectiveness of current laws in protecting animal rights and their enforcement within the criminal sphere. The study analyzes the Comprehensive Organic Criminal Code (COIP) and the Organic Environmental Code, focusing on provisions related to animal abuse and cruelty crimes. It also examines judicial procedures in specific animal abuse cases, the penalties imposed, and the role of institutions responsible for enforcing these regulations. The thesis includes a comparative analysis with the laws of other countries, highlighting areas where the Ecuadorian system could improve. Additionally, proposed legislative reforms and their potential impact on the effective protection of animals are discussed. The findings reveal that while Ecuador's legal framework has made progress in recognizing animal rights, enforcement remains limited due to factors such as lack of training for justice operators, insufficient resources, and low public awareness. The study concludes with recommendations to strengthen the criminal system in protecting animal rights, including the creation of a national registry of animal abusers and increased public education campaigns.
