Fighting for animal liberation and an end to speciesism
Animal Rights and Human Wrongs by Hugh LaFollette
Animal Rights and Human Wrongs
Hugh LaFollette
Abstract: Are there limits on how human beings can legitimately treat non-human animals? Or can we treat them just any way we please? If there are limits, what are they? Are they sufficiently strong, as some people suppose, to lead us to be vegetarians and to seriously curtail, if not eliminate, our use of non-human animals in `scientific' experiments designed to benefit us? To fully appreciate this question let me contrast it with two different ones: Are there limits on how we can legitimately treat rocks? And: are there limits on how we can legitimately treat other human beings? The answer to the first question is presumably `No.' Well, that's not quite right. There are some limits on what w e can legitimately do with or to rocks. If Paula has a pet rock, then Susan can't justifiably take it away or smash it with a sledge hammer. After all it is Paula's rock.
