Mini Law School: Animals and the Law (Sept. 25)

Posted on

Join Dalhousie’s first Mini Law School event of the term:

ANIMALS AND THE LAW
w/ Professor Vaughan Black

Pet or property? Free range or small cage? Cure for disease or cruelty by degrees? When it comes to the treatment and protection of animals and the law, the answers to questions like these are often uncomfortable – and complicated.

In this lecture, discussions will take place about how the law regards and treats animals in agriculture, in scientific experimentation, as wildlife (huntin’, fishin’ ‘n trappin’), and as companions, and the protection (or lack of it) of their lives, welfare, and interests will be explored.

Join this MINI LAW SCHOOL to discuss the many ways law enters our lives.
