Description

Explore the complex relationship between zoological institutions and animal welfare in Zoos and Animal Rights: The Ethics of Keeping Animals. Published by Routledge, this book addresses the perceived conflict between zoo operations and animal rights movements. Author Stephen Bostock examines the diverse ethical and technical issues that define this debate, providing a deep look into how we view our connection to the natural world. This work analyzes critical areas where misconceptions often occur, including human cruelty, the nature of wild versus domestic animals, and the implications of human domination over species outside their natural habitats. By looking at the long history of zoos alongside current philosophical debates, the text offers a unique perspective on why these institutions remain relevant in the modern world. It is an essential read for students, researchers, and anyone interested in the biological sciences and the evolving ethics of animal care.
