I want to know if, given the choice, fallen_angel would rather see his puppy die or his mom, or his brother, or what?
Animals may be just like family to billions of people, but they are also just like food to billions of people, and just like clothing to billions of people. I think many researchers who conduct tests on animals do have pets. Why wouldn't they? Many meat eaters have pets. Survival of the fittest.
Animals have less rights than humans because they are not humans. We are programmed by nature to value our own species more than other species. Name me one other species who gives a goddamn about the survival of another species? It seems pretty obvious to me that nature doesn't give a damn about us, or any other carbon based life form, for that matter.
