However, the age of the Golden Gooney was to come to a brutal end; beginning in the late 1800′s, they were being slaughtered by the millions for their feathers at their breeding colonies. Not only were they a common bird, they were a common bird nearshore; indigenous peoples hunted them up and down the coast.

I prefer "anti-unnecessary slaughter of sentient nonhumans" and it has nothing to do with perceived modernity. The HSUS isn't even anti-hunting ! Parker uses the term "anti-modern farming activists," which is new to me. Besides, is the "modern" veal crate something to be proud of?

If you believe your dog has a right to a life free of torture and slaughter for no reason, then you really ought to think about extending that right to mice, rats, chickens and fish. I want to talk about why we shouldn't be using animals and that it's infinitely easier to be a vegan than it was 20 years ago.

After 14 years of campaigning for the protection of Quails and Turtle Doves, of which I was a part from the very beginning, all that Serbian NGOs have managed to achieve was a 34 days long hunting ban of the Turtle Dove that has already fallen during the closed season.

This mass avian exploitation, amazing and repugnant, ultimately met its end through separate campaigns in the United States and Great Britain, each led by women, mostly upper-middle class women. Both campaigns led to the establishment of national, influential conservation organizations–National Audubon Society in the U.S.

Both, of course, were seen as victories, but the article's author, Richard Foot, asks: Do such successes mean the animal rights movement is winning its long, controversial campaigns to gain the same legal protections for animals as those ascribed to humans?

For some people, it is inhumane to eat meat in any situation, no matter how well the animal is treated prior to and during slaughter. There is an abundance of information on the web about undercover investigations, livestock conditions, slaughter procedures, etc. Livestock don’t contribute to campaigns, but agribusiness does.

If Engber does a good job with anything, it's with pointing out the flaws in the strategies of pro-animal activists and in the outcomes of their campaigns. The fact that we care about--and fight for--animals based on how cute we have deemed them to be is disgraceful. It does not make them more or less a "tool."

"While plenty of people pay attention to the question of what it means to raise an animal humanely, far fewer stop to consider the notion—and the ostensible paradox—of humane slaughter." Interestingly, the campaigns of happy meaters are acknowledged for perhaps being somewhat of a scam with the next sentence. Potent if symbolic?

I don't think anyone is campaigning for "farm" animals to become pets, as many of us don't even think the family cat should be the family cat. He is letting his attachment to eating animals and his attachment to his constituents profiting from their slaughter cloud his decision making.
