If we throw up our hands in disgust at the level of support for animal abuse in America’s churches and synagogues, we will set back the animals’ cause by at least a generation and probably more. Like the old abolitionists, we must convert the churches, not write them off. Ask them what they had for breakfast.

I think this is why I understand the thinking of people who don't want us to use animals but who promote changing the way we use them to decrease their numbers or their suffering. I understand the impulse to do " something " that alters the number of animals created to be used and killed and the suffering of the ones created.

Cherie is a professional Animal Communicator who developed a deep love & understanding for animals early in her life. More than 20 years ago Cherie became involved in animal rescue.

Why does the Bush administration think that it is wrong for the Japanese to kill whales but permissible for the U.S. The point, of course, is that there is no necessary connection between (1) a person's attitude toward animals or the environment and (2) his or her normative political theory.

People who care only about humans, for example, will not be persuaded by “old” vegetarian arguments, for those arguments rested on concern for animals. People who care about both humans and animals will have two reasons, rather than one, to abstain from meat—provided, of course, that the arguments are good ones. He is analyzing.

Choosing to live with animals rather than humans is a kind of masturbation: all pleasure, no responsibility. Those of us who live with, love, and provide for animals have no expectation of reciprocity, for we know that none is forthcoming. So who’s selfish: those who produce children or those who care for animals?

However, in this post, I’d like to lay out the basic numbers as we pretend to know them about overall bird mortality, human related causes of mortality, and somewhere in there I’ll note that the number of birds that are killed by windmills is so small that it says “zero” on my pie chart.

” This leads to obvious conflicts with the NAMWC prohibition against the frivolous killing and waste of wildlife. Given that few hunters actually consume coyotes, wolves, cougars, and except for a few individuals, even bears, it is obviously a “waste” of wildlife to shoot or trap these animals just for “fun” 2.

What’s even more frustrating is when animal rights people learn of plans to cull nonnative species. Instead of embracing these fantastic programs, a typical reaction from people within the animal rights movement is to condemn and protest the act, because animals were going to die. The logic of this is ridiculous.

Trying to program kids to accept the killing of someone they love is cruel. If you want to teach kids to respect animals, you can't teach them that it's okay to use and kill them if you like the taste of their flesh.

This one addresses the decreasing number of dogs and cats being experimented on and, without mentioning it, discusses speciesism and our affection for dogs--pet dogs particularly (and especially purebreds)--which leads to our revulsion with the idea of snatching, vivisecting and killing them.

The International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW; www.ifaw.org ) has compiled some tips on how to keep pets happy and healthy in the cold months ahead. A good rule of thumb is to feel the tips of your animal’s ears. Ice, sleet and snow make it more difficult for animals to track a scent and find their way home if they get lost.
