Animal Exploitation

Regarding Levine’s suggestion that “animal right-to-lifers will bypass this page,� may I say that that is not true? When people who are concerned about abuse and exploitation of other people or animals read an article which pertains to that area of concern, they are alerted and sincerely distressed.

I am very troubled by the pain and suffering of animals caught in steel-jaw traps and animals forced to live in wire cages all their short lives. Is that concern really something to sneer at?
