Animal Ethics

Paper Summary:

This paper argues that the moral rights of animals has been brought forth through the theories of Darwin, Peter Singer, as well as the counter argument of Speciesism, which now dominate the ethical battles for or against human superiority in Earth. In many ways, both the microcosmic and macrocosmic arguments both offer insights into how Darwin's theory has been an integral part of animal rights debates.

From the Paper:

"This ethics study will analyze the basis of Animal rights for endangered species, and argue why they have equal rights to existence, alongside human beings. By using the arguments of Peter Singer in regards to the moral righteousness of equality for animals, the arguments used against this position will be brought forth by Speciesists. By utilizing both arguments for or against animal rights, one can realize the moral and biological reasons that animals should possess equal rights. In regards to endangered animals, this ethical consideration should be taken seriously, as all animals play an important in the biological whole of human ecosystem."
