Answer to Question 1

Animal rights is the position that animals should not be exploited. Animal rights advocates believe that
animals should not be used for food, clothing, entertainment, medical research, or product testing. This also
includes the use of animals in rodeos, zoos, circuses, and even as pets. They believe it is ethically, morally, and
inherently wrong to use animals for human purposes under any condition.
Animal welfare is the position that animals should be treated humanely. This includes proper housing,
nutrition, disease prevention and treatment, responsible care, handling, and humane euthanasia or slaughter.
Animal welfare advocates believe that animals can be used for human purposes but that they should be
treated so that discomfort is kept to a minimum.

Answer to Question 2

Peter Singer is considered the founder, and his publication was titled Animal Liberation.
