Animal Law and Policy

Animal Law and Policy examines the legal frameworks and regulations that govern the treatment, welfare, and rights of animals. It intersects with animal ethics, which explores our moral responsibilities toward animals and their treatment in society. This field addresses issues like animal cruelty, wildlife conservation, and the use of animals in research and agriculture, advocating for better protection and welfare standards. Ultimately, it seeks to balance human interests with the ethical treatment of animals, fostering a society that respects their rights and well-being.
