The reasons for animal euthanasia are:
A. terminal illness, e.g. cancer or rabies
B. Illness or accident that is not terminal but would cause suffering for the animal to live with, or when the owner cannot afford, or when the owner has a moral objection to the treatment
C. A hunters coup de grâce (mercy killing) or behavioral problems (usually ones that cannot be corrected) e.g. aggression - canines that have usually caused grievous bodily harm to either humans or other animals through mauling are usually seized and euthanized ('destroyed' in British legal terms)
D. old age and deterioration leading to loss of major bodily functions, resulting in severe impairment of the quality of life, lack of home or caretaker, or research & testing – in the course of scientific research or testing, animals may be euthanized in order to be dissected, to prevent suffering after testing, to prevent the spread of disease, or other reasons
