Who founded animal rights?

Answer 1

Well a very famous one is Cass Sunstein, who the Obama administration have nominated as head of a whole host of regulatory bodies that would have powers to oversee the treatment of animals improved. That's a very topical example, but it's well known about mainly because of the supposed extremity of his views (such as that an animal theoretically should be entitled to legal representation and have the ability to sue in court).

Answer 2

Animals have always had rights. Similarly to human races that were at some point discriminated against, these rights have simply been disregarded by many.

If your question is who founded the animal rights movement, many consider Philosopher Peter Singer, author of the book Animal Liberation, often referred to be The Bible of the animal rights movement to be the father of the modern movement.

Answer 3

While many people are of the opinion that the concept of animal rights came into existence in 1975, with Peter Singer's book titled 'Animal Liberation', the fact is that it came into existence with the formation of American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) way back in 1866. The ASPCA was founded by Henry Berg in order to provide effective means for the prevention of cruelty to animals throughout the United States. In 1966, i.e. exactly a hundred years after ASPCA came into existence, the Congress passed the Animal Welfare Act, which forms the basis of animal rights laws in the United States today. Other important milestones were the formation of the Animal Legal Defense Fund (ALDF) to protect the interests of animals through legal system in 1979 and the formation of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) in 1980.
