Animal liberation movement

The animal liberation movement or animal rights movement (sometimes called the animal personhood movement or animal advocacy movement), is a social movement. It is made up of activists, academics, lawyers, campaigns, and organized groups who oppose the use of non-human animals for any reason (in research, as food, as clothing, or as entertainment).

History

In some form or another, the concept of animal rights has been around for thousands of years.
