Standing is often an issue in environmental lawsuits and advocacy groups have learned how to meet these requirements, sometimes including named individuals. CESAR had alleged that Dr. Zink would suffer professional and reputational injuries because FWS rejected his research, but the court found that inadequate.

Over at Animal Rights and AntiOppression , we’ve been discussing tactics and sharing our thoughts and experiences about what works and doesn’t work when it comes to advocacy. The research, much of the time, doesn’t support the conventional wisdom (which is not to say the case is closed on any issue).

The Longest Struggle: Animal Advocacy from Pythagoras to PETA by Norm Phelps came out in 2007. Worth a look. The Longest Struggle concludes with an overview of current campaigns and tactics, and an assessment of the state of the movement as we enter a new century, including the threat represented by an overzealous "war on terror".

Books are obvious opportunities for advocacy and vegan education. Querying agents should involve research. I hardly read it, and wouldn't be good at writing it. Plus, selling it is a bit different as the quality of the writing and the story is of paramount importance. The publishing business in the US is unfortunately celebrity-based.

Birders often play a vital role in monitoring bird populations, contributing data to scientific research, and participating in citizen science initiatives that help track bird distributions, migration patterns, and breeding behaviors. They contribute to scientific research, conservation efforts, and the enjoyment of birding as a hobby.

Johnson is not a birder or a naturalist; he was fly fishing to get his mind off the stress of working on the List Project, an advocacy organization he founded to aid Iraqis who had helped the U.S. The skins were invaluable tools for ornithological, ecological, environmental research.

A great-great nephew of Senator McLean, Greeley spent three years researching and writing this book. Greeley has a historian’s instincts, perhaps stemming from his training as an archivist (though he ended up, he says vaguely, in business and market research).
