The Animals' Rights Movement

The Animals' Rights Movement advocates for recognizing animals as beings with intrinsic value and moral consideration, rather than merely property or commodities. It seeks to promote ethical treatment by opposing practices like factory farming, animal testing, and entertainment that cause suffering. The movement emphasizes that animals have the capacity to experience pain and pleasure, deserving protection based on their interests. Its goal is to foster a more humane and respectful relationship between humans and animals, often encouraging alternatives like veganism, improved welfare standards, and legal rights to prevent unnecessary cruelty.
