Hey there, Just discovered your nice blog on animals and ethics. I've touched on relevant issues off and on, but most specifically in a 2004 piece on arguments for and against whale hunts. I've linked back to that story in my latest post on Japan v Greenpeace saga on my Dot Earth blog.

Here is a New York Times blog post about wolf hunting. Peter Singer more broadly examines the moral standing of animals here.) While this belief might not compel us to be vegetarians, it does demand significant changes in the way we raise animals for food, and it forbids wolf hunting as a form of entertainment.

First of all, I would like to thank Keith for inviting me to be a part of this blog. Currently, I am very interested in social and political philosophy and ethical issues. I felt a strong sense of connection to the ideas of Peter Singer while taking Ethics from Keith. Hi there, I'm Jonathan.

you have a very interesting blog! It is an animated website aimed at educating and inspiring children about endangered species, and all of our characters actually exist in a real-life camp in Tanzania which protects black rhino and wild African hunting dogs.

Jonathan Hubbell, a philosophy major at the University of Texas at Arlington, is the newest member of the Animal Ethics blog, and once again, I would like to welcome him aboard. The point is that even hunters seem to think that they need a reason to justify killing these animals.
