Why do you think?! Because they are a living sentient creatures capable of feeling pain and suffering, but they are unable to decide what is best for them by themselves - just like children, they have rights too.

What are types animal rights?
types meaning philosophies? There is a common confusion between the idea of animal welfare and animal rights. Animal welfare is the idea that animals should be treated humanely, but humans should have the right to use them for their own advancement and benefit. Animal rights and animal welfare are entirely different. Within the concepts of animal rights, there is specieism, painism, animal liberation, veganism, vegetarianism, and more. Animal rights activists will not share 100% of the same ethics, but in general they believe that animals should have the same basic rights as humans; the right to live without fear, pain, or violence. To live outside of captivity. To not be eaten. To be given respect, legal protection, etc.

Should religion play a role in animal rights?
No. Animal Rights is typically linked with law, and by extension, a government. Religion should not factor into this at all. Also, beyond the basic Animal Rights topics (such as torture, unnecessary cruelty, etc) religion does not really add anything new to the topic, other than cultural regulations. For example, Hinduism forbids the slaughter of cows, because they are a "holy animal". This, however, is purely a cultural norm, and should not be enforced as a standard practice when it comes to "animal rights" or the law.
