BRUCE WAGMAN THINKING ABOUT ELEPHANTS

And excerpt from Bruce Wagman's article:

"I had to learn the science of elephants for my job, and that requirement is one of the fantastic things about practicing animal law, especially for someone like me.  That is, in order to do a good job, I am compelled to learn not just the law, but often the biology, physiology, psychology and behaviors of whatever species is at the center of the case I am litigating.  For me that is turning work into fun or at least intellectual exploration, which is fun for a law geek like me.  Because there are “cat people” and “dog people” and “chimp people;” and when on safari in Africa some people mainly want to see the big cats; others the birds.  There is an inherent speciesism, just like when we pet a cat and eat a cow, or think it is bad to eat dog because we do not do it, but it is okay to eat a pig because we do.  But I’m a garbage-can animal lover, meaning I love them all."

    Jasper Hanging Out - by Betsy Seeton

    "The animals of the world exist for their own reasons.  They were not made for humans any more than black people were made for white, or women created 
    for men." 

    ~Alice Walker

    The source of the quote is Walker's preface to Marjorie Spiegel's 1988 book, "The Dreaded Comparison" . Her next sentence was, "This is the gist of Ms. Spiegel's cogent, humane and astute argument, and it is sound."

    If you knew the horrendously abusive conditions that pigs are forced to endure when they're raised for food, most of you would never eat another bite of pork.
