This standing and the rights associated with it must be enforceable against the government so that the public can hold it accountable. Interpretation of these rights must be adaptable to contemporary concerns, such as biodiversity and species extinction. All attempts to domesticate wild animals should be discouraged.

In " 'Animal Rights:' Pernicious Nonsense for Both Law & Public Policy ," Massachusetts attorney and "sportsman" Richard Latimer is on the mark with some concepts, and way off with others. Now, I know you're saying: That's not what animal rights is. For an attorney, that's awfully weak.

The ground for this will not be animal welfare, as you might expect, but environmentalism. So if animal husbandry is to be prohibited, it should be on animal-welfare grounds, not environmental grounds.
