The Port Authority’s goal is to strike a balance in humanely controlling bird populations at and around the agency’s airports to safeguard passengers on thousands of aircrafts each day. And, while you’re here, why not sign the petition to stop the senseless slaughter of Snowy Owls at JFK ? 1 Commerce Plaza. 99 Washington Ave.

I know he's a conservationist, therefore I know he will advocate for "managing" the "resources" that are sentient nonhumans. In the majority of cases, it is humans who are to blame for the plunging numbers of animals, and Corwin is very clear about the extent to which we have destroyed the world around us.

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. So there are more vegans and fewer animals used by humans, right? Weighing the Impact At some level, PETA’s tactics have worked.

Abby, I too get very upset by stories and images of what occurs every second of every day to nonhumans and humans alike. The purpose of my life is to be the best human being I can be and to leave this planet knowing I did what I could to make it a better place. My life isn't about calculated karmic management, either.

I was especially interested in “To Hide From God,” the chapter on songbird slaughter and protection in Cyprus. The 20-plus list of resources is organized by chapter, so there may be some repeats in the citations I counted, but I doubt there are many.) This is big, global-level stuff with amazing findings but worrisome data.

The fact that geese mate for life, and that the mate of the poor goose that was slaughtered would step forward, was enough to make me swear off meat forever, if I hadn’t already. We pay lip service to more humane treatment of the animals that we eat, but how many of us look beyond the label on the package of chicken cutlets?

For Engber, who dispassionately describes procedures most of the time, the "advances" in the medical care of humans are all well worth what he and other vivisectionists do to dogs and other sentient nonhumans. By the end of my time as researcher, I was performing behavioral experiments on humans. It "guarantees humane treatment?"
