Abstract

In the present dissertation, the article 138 of the Penal Code is analyzed, relating to the crimes of exposure and abandonment, and reference is also made to animal abandonment. A research was carried out on these topics through various bibliographic sources for a better understanding of them. It is concluded that there is a need to expand the crime of exposure and abandonment as well as an urgency of a constitutional review in order to ensure the criminalization of animal abandonment in Portugal.
