Who Should Not Eat Meat, or What Does a Vegetarian Feed His Dog? Vegetarians certainly cannot think that only vegetarians have a prima facie duty not to eat animals or animal products. This doesn’t mean we let them run wild, for we need to protect ourselves. The dog, let us say, has bitten a child. Not necessarily.

People who study pigs say they are as intelligent as a 3-year-old child, smarter even than the dogs we share our homes with. Would anyone in this day and age dare to say that we cannot presume to know a dog’s mind, that a dog cannot tell us if it is happy or sad, frustrated, lonely or bored? BOBBIE MULLINS Norfolk, Va.,

So far McCloskey is on solid ground, but one can quarrel with his denial that any animals but humans have interests. I should think that the trustee of funds willed to a dog or cat is more than a mere custodian of the animal he protects. The animal itself is the beneficiary of his dutiful services.

Jonathan Bennett , "The Conscience of Huckleberry Finn," Philosophy 49 [April 1974]: 123-34, at 133 [italics in original]) Note from KBJ: I thought of animals when I read this.

if they see a mistreated dog, and shudder to see a wounded deer in the road.
