Imagine an animal’s feeling of panic and fear as it is about to be killed by a hunter or the isolation experienced as an animal sits in a laboratory, separated from its family and natural habitat, waiting to be harmed by harsh testing methods. Imagine the frightened state of a mother or father watching their innocent baby being captured. After considering the brutality towards animals in these scenarios, take into consideration the health benefits humans receive from different parts of these animals. Imagine health risks avoided through testing on animals first instead of on humans. Does human benefit justify the harm and killing of animals? Linda Hasselstrom’s essay “The Cow Versus The Animal Rights Activist” and Tom Regan’s “Animal Rights, Human Wrongs” argue this question through analysis of the reason for killing animals, the method in which they are killed, and the morality of the killing of animals.…
Let’s face it, people all over the world love beauty. Holy wood is obsessed with it. Like many women in America and all over the world, we want to look our best, we want to look and feel beautiful.

The acronym, SWOT stands for strengths, weakness, opportunities and threats of a particular company.…
In "The Case for Animal Rights," Tom Regan writes about his beliefs regarding animal rights. Regan states the animal rights movement is committed to a number of goals, including: "the total abolition of the use of animals in science; the total dissolution of commercial animal agriculture; and the total elimination of commercial and sport hunting and trapping. Regan goes on and tells us the "fundamental wrong is the system that allows us to view animals as our resources, here for us--to be eaten, or surgically manipulated, or exploited for sport or money." Once people accept this view of animals being here for our resources, they believe what harms the animal doesn't really matter. Regan explains that in order to have this changed, people must change their beliefs. If enough people, especially people that hold a public office, change their beliefs, there can be laws made to protect the rights of animals.…
A History of The Humane Society of the United States, the Animal Rights Movement and their influence on the American society…
Of all the animal rights organizations in the United States, The Human Society of the United States, is the most wealthy and prominent. It claims to be at the forefront of animal rights, pushing legislation through congress and investigating possible abuse. For the past 12 years, the HSUS has been led by Wayne Pacelle, the CEO of the company. Pacelle has received both criticism and praise for his work, and while he maintains his positive stance on animal rights, some his actions say otherwise. Whether or not the HSUS considers themselves as a nonprofit organization, human greed can blind the rational of the good-willed. Americans may have been buying into the false truth that Pacelle truly stands for animals, and not just wanting to make a quick fortune.…
Should guiltless animals be treated as if they are a piece of meat? Should animals not be given rights because they are non-humans? Animal welfare is very important. Animals show that they are incapable of representing their own interest. It is our ethical duty towards them to show them that their welfare will be upheld. Many believe that animals are just pieces of meat and that they’ve been placed on this planet for our benefits. Animals have been around since the beginning of time. Animals contribute to our world in ways we can’t. Animals need to have rights just as humans. Animals deserve to be treated with love and respect.…
Is it possible to respect the rights of animals and eat them for dinner too? According to animal equality website, with the exception of fish, “over 56 billion farmed animals are slaughtered every year by humans.” Tom Regan writes in The Case for Animal Rights, what’s “fundamentally wrong with the way animals are treated” [….] “is the system that allows us to view animals as our resources, here for us — to be eaten, or surgically manipulated, or exploited for sport or money.” (Regan 13) With this harsh reality in mind, Regan calls for a total abolition of the use of animals in science, commercial animal agriculture, and commercial sport hunting and trapping.…
In December 11, 2013 a group of Animal Rights activists from the Indiana Animal Rights Alliance was protesting near the Bankers Life Fieldhouse, an indoor arena located in Indianapolis, Indiana. Up to 100 activists showed up at the Fieldhouse before each performance; some of the activists came from as far away as Kentucky to support the cause. Their protests were based against the practices used by the Ringling Brothers Circus to train and take care of animals. Only few people stopped to talk to the members of the association, while several others yelled “shut up.”i According to Lori Lovely, “One father encouraged his two-year-old-daughter to ‘say it, say it!’ She uttered an expletive to the demonstrators.”ii People were not being receptive of the issue pertaining animal abuse. Linda Cridge, an activist of the animal rights said, "They try not to look at us because they don't want to know the truth."iii According to the article, the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and the Animal Protection Institute had filed a lawsuits against the Ringling Brothers Circus for the mistreatment and use of endangered species. The lawsuit was filed specially because of the abuse the circus inflicts to the elephants they exploit. “Elephants are social, they shouldn’t be treated like this,”iv said Carrie Knight, from Greenwood, who came because of her love for animals.v (See Appendix A to read the full case.)…
Animals on a daily basis all over the world are being mistreated and abused by many people that do not care for them. There are very few people attempting to protect these animals, whether they are domestic animals, farm animals, or wildlife animals. More attention should be drawn to the treatment of animals because even if we do have laws for animals and for their well being, many people still do not follow these laws. The laws already established for animals should be enforced, because I do agree that animals need protection, as in free from any harm done towards them purposely, but to have a Bill of Rights specifically made for animals seems extreme.…
The definition of utilitarianism is that the morally good thing to do is to pleasure the greatest number of people or animals for the least amount of suffering. For example you can rationalize killing a mass murderer before he kills even more people. Therefore taking the life of one person to save the life of many more.…
Many people feel that animals have no rights and are here solely for our use.…
Grillo, Alexander, (August 15, 2012), Five Reasons Why Meat-Eating Cannot Be Considered a ‘Personal Choice’…
Baby boomers are aging but….they don’t want to feel it, or look it. Boomers want to remain desirable as long as possible. They will buy products and services that facilitate that aim.

This is prime time for her, and she will use her money to prolong…

Determining the rights of non-human animals and deciding how to treat them may not be a choice available to our human society. As an advocate for the rights of animals, Tom Reganʻs three main goals are to abandon the use of animals in any scientific research, discontinue all commercial animal agriculture, and to completely terminate both commercial and sport animal hunting. To support these intentions, Regan argues that every human and non-human animal possesses inherent value, which makes them all more than a physical object or vessel. He then states that possessing inherent value allows every human and non-human to have rights of their own. To further his argument, Regan claims that the any human and non-human retaining rights requires equal treatment and respect from others. To conclude his argument, Regan states that due to these reasons, non-human animals cannot be treated as resources and must be treated by humans as equals. In this paper, I object to Reganʻs third premise, which states that non-human and human animals must be treated as equals and with respect, because our communication barrier with non-human animals restricts us from determining their notion of equal treatment or respect, and that attempting to do so could…
