Great animal law resource I just found
I was just looking up a book called Animal Ethics by Angus Taylor. It's a revised edition of his previous book released four years earlier in 1999 called Magpies, Morals and Monkeys, which was basically a well-written overview of standard animal rights issues and arguments. One of my professors just emailed me to say that the Animal Ethics edition is what we'll be using in his class next semester. I have the 1999 edition. Anyway, I found a reference to Angus Taylor on a University of Victoria site about a conference the University of Victoria Faculty of Law Student Animal Legal Defense Fund just had, then realised that he's actually a professor there, as well. I'd never even heard of UVic (it's in BC). The conference page had informational links, including this very nifty site: http://www.animallaw.info/.
