Animal Rights vs. Human Rights

• Human life versus animal life. This fundamental conflict of values, which was dramatized a few years ago when AIDS victims marched in support of research on animals, is still raging. PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) has just launched a campaign against Covance, Inc., a biomedical research lab in Vienna, Va., that uses animals for drug testing.

Human Rights

What are Human Rights?Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, whatever

our nationality, place of residence, sex, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, language, or any other status. We are all equally entitled to our human rights without discrimination. These rights are all interrelated, interdependent and indivisible.

What are the most known human rights?• The most known human rights are freedom to change his

religion or belief, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion .

What are rights?Rights are the law identifies that certain interests ought to be protected, even if infringing upon those interests would serve the interests of another person, or the interests of the greater good. When a person's legal right is violated by another party, then the right provides the person with a justified legal claim against the violating party.

Animal Rights

Animal rights is a topic that very often gets forgotten about. The welfare of the animals depends on our understanding,

caring and taking action. They deserve our help.

• The conclution we have is that people think that the only thing that have rights are humans, but they are wrong animals also have rights.

• People do not obey them rights either the animals. We need to change that.

• The only way to change that is to educate children so we need to be good with everyone people and animals to have a better future.
