Yesterday I saw what could be the next such attempt in The Atlantic's " Last Clucks: The Death of a Chicken ," by Sara Lipka. the chicken waited with me, its head sticking through a gap in the top of the box. It was funny, maybe even cute."

The problem with that statement is it's not as if farmers are searching "the wild" for cows, pigs, chicken and fish, plucking them from their homes, and plopping them on a farm to live out their (shortened) lives prior to slaughter. They are created to be slaughtered. Tags: Ethics Language. Yes, that's true.

And I want Baby Sky to grow up in a home where there is just as much respect for chickens and calves and fishes as there is for greyhounds and cats and people. Justice for beings who look very different from us but who, like us, experience pleasure and pain, boredom and frustration. But we can bring our story to that world.

I've used the term "animal activism" lately as an experiment. If you believe your dog has a right to a life free of torture and slaughter for no reason, then you really ought to think about extending that right to mice, rats, chickens and fish. Tags: Activism Current Affairs Ethics Language.
