A Humane Egg The life of animals raised in confinement on industrial farms is slowly improving, thanks to pressure from consumers, animal rights advocates, farmers and legislators. Animals with more space are healthier, and they are no less productive. In California last week, Gov.

The California law adds an arbitrary and unscientific requirement that chickens be prohibited from touching one another or the side of any enclosure. The new law will cost American family farmers, and ultimately California consumers, hundreds of millions of dollars. Gene Gregory President, United Egg Producers Alpharetta, Ga.,

So far as I can determine the swan was not officially granted status as the national bird of Denmark by law but by a popular vote held by either Danish Television or Denmark Radio. The Numbat is the animal emblem. It is no wonder that the ugly duckling grew up to be the national bird of Denmark.

Sadly, this population too went into a steep decline until only 57 animals were left in Germany in 1997, raising fears about their imminent extinction in the country.

A reader sent a link to this column, which raises the perennial question of how best to change society. Resorting to violence against person or property is not in the long-term best interests of animals, as Peter Singer has argued. Those who break duly enacted laws should be punished. Not coercion. Not manipulation.

If animals could be created by genetic engineering, could they be created so that there were no moral objections to eating them?

What Is an Animal Part? The last example suggests the difficulty of making a clear distinction between an animal part and an animal product. If a genetically engineered animal’s legs periodically fell off, would not its legs be more like a product of an animal (analogous to eggs) than a part of the animal?

In 1987, only 27 were left in the wild and drastic action was taken to save the species: all remaining birds were captured, the California Condor was declared extinct in the wild, and a captive breeding program was begun, initially carried out by the San Diego Wild Animal Park and the Los Angeles Zoo. So, what is Kölsch, exactly?

It is mostly a question of economics – raising just one is troublesome enough given the resources required to feed and educate the chick. But once you passed ‘the Pale,” you were outside the authority and safety of English law, and subject to all the savageries of rural Ireland.

For the German flag, the “Grundgesetz” (the German basic law) states that the color of the national flag is black-red-gold. Superb Starlings avoid this when using helpers, much like rich people presumably reducing the stress of raising kids by hiring a couple of nannies. Poor creatures.

I was told by a Panamanian bank vice president, “Every multinational knows that if Honduras raises its hourly rate, the rest of Latin America and the Caribbean will have to follow. In throwing out Zelaya they are sending frightening messages to all the other presidents who are trying to raise the living standards of their people.”
