Many animals are cruelly exploited in this world. This site is meant to educate people about what is happening to animals and what you can do to help them. The site consists of a database built using XML, and research papers I have written:

"That's the Breaks: Trainer Responsibility for Racehorse Breakdowns in New York" [link]


"The Link Between Animal Cruelty and Violence Towards People" [link (paper), link (abridged)]

"Shifting Legal Views on Animals: Animals are More than Property" [link]

"Advancing Animal Rights Through Education in Eastern Religious Philosophy" [link]

"Eastern Religious Philosophy and the Advancement of Animals’ Legal Interests" [link]

LLM Presentation: "The Canadian Commercial Seal Hunt: In Search of International Legal Protection for Harp and Hooded Seals." [link]

Please consider boycotting Costco for its support of the cruel Canadian seal slaughter. [sign petition]
