However, this law has had little effect on curbing the illegal trapping. CHAMPIONS OF THE FLYWAY BY THE NUMBERS.

Since animals cannot be judged morally praiseworthy or blameworthy, the question of whether it is morally wrong for them to eat meat cannot be raised. Since no animals are autonomous (in the sense of being capable of making laws for themselves, or acting on principle), moral concepts such as “right” and “wrong” don’t apply to them.
