  • Bioethical Questions of Animals in Sport1
    Preliminary communication UDK: 17:798/799 636.046:17 Bruno Ćurko (Croatia) Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Split [email protected] BIOETHICAL QUESTIONS OF ANIMALS IN SPORT1 Abstract Animals are a part of sport industries, from the so-called traditions such as fox hunting and bullfighting, horse and dog racing, to the cruel examples of hare coursing, rodeo, and orangutan boxing (Thailand), to cock and dog fights. These are prominent examples of animal exploitation serving our human entertainment. In my presentation, I will try to identify some of the essential questions considering animal use in sports. Some of these questions are: Can we justify animal exploitation in the name of tradition? Can we take into consideration the well-being of sport animals before, during, and after their competitive career? How much could and should the imminent risk of animal stress, injuries, and fatalities prevent us from their exploitation in sports? If animals are ready to obey demands we set upon them, should we abuse them for our entertainment and sport? Keywords: animals, sports industry, cultural tradition, bioethics, entertainment 1 This paper is an elaborated adaptation of a lecture titled “Bioethical Questions of Animals in Sport”, presented at the conference “3rd Osijek days of bioethics” - Faculty of Education, J. J. Strossmayer University of Osijek, 11–12 November 2019. Pannoniana, vol. IV, no. I (2020): 143-153 Introduction When we think about animals in sport, we usually think about activities where people use animals in some competitions such as horse races, dog races, and other similar ones. But first, we need to research the definition of sport as it is.

  • The Use of Animals in Sports
    Existence, Breeding, a,nd Rights: The Use of Animals in Sports Donald Scherer Bowling Green State University Against these lines of argument one frequently encounters a certain objection. It is argued that since the animals for fighting, hunting and racing exist only because they have been bred for such human uses, human beings are justified in so treating them. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate this line ofobjection, or to speak more precisely, to evaluate the two distinct objections implicit in this line. For the objection may be either that (l) the present uses of the animals are justified because they are better for the animals than the Standardly, philosophical arguments about the alternative, namely non-existence, or that quality of treatment human beings owe nonhuman animals! rest on two bases. Peter Singer is famous (2) breeding an animal for a purpose gives the for arguing from the capacity of animals to feel pain breeders (transferable) rights over what they to the conclusion that since almost none of the pain have bred. human beings cause animals is necessary, almost none of it is morally justifiable (Singer, 1989, pp. 78-79). I shall pursue these alternatives sequentially. Singer rests his case on the premise that who suffers pain does not affect the badness of the suffering, so The Value of Existence that, without strong justification, the infliction of pain is universally wrong (Ibid., pp. 77-78). Tom Regan is The strength ofthe first form ofthe objection rests on equally famous for his argument that the beliefs and a common intuition comparing the values of existence desires which normal one year-old mammals clearly and non-existence.

  • 1 ANIMALS, SPORT, and the ENVIRONMENT Kass Gibson
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Plymouth Marjon University Repository ANIMALS, SPORT, AND THE ENVIRONMENT Kass Gibson 1 Purpose – To outline the multiple ways in which animals are inserted into sporting practices, outline historical and contemporary approaches to studying human-animal sporting practices, and advocate for the centring of sociological problems in human- animal research in sporting contexts and cultures and for considering such problems in relation to environmental issues. Design/methodology/approach -- In the first part of the chapter, conceptual differentiation of animals in the animal-sport complex is presented. Subsequently, studies of interspecies sport are reviewed with reference to the ‘animal turn’ in the literature. In the second part, a critique is presented relating to: i) the privileging of companion animals, especially dogs and horses, which overlooks the multiple ways animals are integrated into (multispecies) sport; ii) micro-sociological and insider ethnographies of companionship displacing of sociological problems in favour of relationship perspectives; and iii) the environment as absent from analysis. The conclusion offers implications for understanding multispecies sport and the environment. Findings -- I chart a general shift in emphasis and focus from animals as an ‘absent- presence’ in pursuit of sociological knowledge towards a clearly defined focus on interspecies sport as a field of research characterised by investigations of relationships with companion animals through the ‘animal turn.’ Research limitations/implications – The focus on companion species means other animals (i.e., non-companions) are understudied, big picture sociological questions are often side-lined, environmental concerns marginalised, and sociological understanding of the environment more generally is either ignored or reduced to a conduit of human-animal interactions.

With the General Election to be held on 8th February 2020, you will have an opportunity to vote for those candidates that support animal welfare. Your vote can make a difference. By asking candidates their views on key animal welfare issues you can gauge their support, raise the profile of these issues, and help to promote animal welfare through the course of the next government. We have listed below key animal welfare issues in Ireland today and have listed the actions we would like to see the next government take to continue the improvements to animal welfare achieved over the course of the previous government. The ISPCA cares about the welfare of all animals including pet animals, horses and donkeys, farm animals, wild animals and animals used in sport, entertainment and science. To find out more about the ISPCA please visit www.ispca.ie KEY ANIMAL WELFARE ISSUES Education Education is the key to improving animal welfare in Ireland. The ISPCA calls on the government to introduce an animal welfare module to National School Curriculum with a focus on responsible pet ownership and to give students an understanding of their moral and legal responsibilities to animals for which they are responsible. The impact of such education would be generational and will reduce the levels of suffering witnessed by the ISPCA.

Access to this file is available from: http://eprints.jcu.edu.au/17278 PART ONE: PERSPECTIVES ON ANIMALS AND HUMANS 1 CHAPTER ONE – INTRODUCTION 1.1 Companion Animals: The Pet Phenomenon Recent pet industry research indicates significant changes in pet ownership in that Americans now own more pets than ever with the highest level recorded of 62 per cent of all households owning a pet. In 2003, Americans kept 65 million dogs as pets (Dillon, 2005) and approximately 78 million cats with 34 per cent of households owning at least one cat (HSUS, 2005). In 2008, in the United Kingdom, 43 per cent of households owned a pet with 22 percent of these homes owning a dog, a total population of seven and a quarter million dogs. With cat ownership increasing in the United Kingdom, the total population of cats is over seven million with 18 per cent of households owning a cat (PFMA, 2008). Pet ownership is even higher in Australia; one of the highest in the world, 64 per cent of the seven and a half million households in Australia own pets (Petnet, 2003) with four million dogs and two and a half million cats (ABC, 2007). Of these, 91 per cent of pet owners reported feeling very close to their pet (Petnet, 2003). Households spend more on their pets than on child care. ABC (2007) notes that “… what we are witnessing is the rise of the ‘fur family’” (ABC, 2007).
