In this paper I am going to argue that Singer is right to claim that human suffering and animal suffering should be given equal consideration. I believe that animals have the capacity to suffer‚ as human do there is no difference in suffering because we are of different species. Whether we are humans are non-humans we have the capacity to feel pain. Exposition 514 Singer argues that humans practice speciesism and it’s no different from racism and sexism.
