The Welfare of Ducks and Geese in Foie Gras Production
The Welfare of Ducks and Geese in Foie Gras Production A Summary of the Scientific and Empirical Evidence A Farm Sanctuary Report Farm Sanctuary · P.O. Box 150 · Watkins Glen, NY www.FarmSanctuary.org · www.NoFoieGras.org Introduction Foie gras, a French term meaning "fatty liver," is produced by force-feeding ducks and geese large amounts of meal that enlarges their livers up to 10 times the nor- mal size. In medical terms, ducks and geese raised for foie gras suffer from hepatic lipi- dosis, a pathologically enlarged, physiologi- cally impaired liver. Foie gras was traditionally produced from geese, but the trend in recent years has been toward using ducks, who require less space to house and are slaughtered younger. Only ducks are currently being used in the US to make foie gras. The species of duck used in foie gras production is a hybrid between the Muscovy duck (Carina moschata) and the domestic duck (Anas platyrhnchous). A male Muscovy duck, which is nearly twice the size of a female Muscovy, is crossed with a domestic female duck such as the Pekin, and the result is a sterile hybrid called the Mulard duck. Male Mulard ducks are used for foie gras production, while the females are either killed at birth or raised and slaughtered for meat con- sumption. During the force-feeding process, the duck is grabbed by the neck, and a metal or plastic tube 8 to 12 inches long is inserted down the esophagus. The desired amount of high fat, high carbohydrate corn mash is pushed through the tube and into the duck's esophagus by either a manual or a pneu- matic pump. -

MAC1 Abstracts – Oral Presentations
Oral Presentation Abstracts OP001 Rights, Interests and Moral Standing: a critical examination of dialogue between Regan and Frey. Rebekah Humphreys Cardiff University, Cardiff, United Kingdom This paper aims to assess R. G. Frey’s analysis of Leonard Nelson’s argument (that links interests to rights). Frey argues that claims that animals have rights or interests have not been established. Frey’s contentions that animals have not been shown to have rights nor interests will be discussed in turn, but the main focus will be on Frey’s claim that animals have not been shown to have interests. One way Frey analyses this latter claim is by considering H. J. McCloskey’s denial of the claim and Tom Regan’s criticism of this denial. While Frey’s position on animal interests does not depend on McCloskey’s views, he believes that a consideration of McCloskey’s views will reveal that Nelson’s argument (linking interests to rights) has not been established as sound. My discussion (of Frey’s scrutiny of Nelson’s argument) will centre only on the dialogue between Regan and Frey in respect of McCloskey’s argument. OP002 Can Special Relations Ground the Privileged Moral Status of Humans Over Animals? Robert Jones California State University, Chico, United States Much contemporary philosophical work regarding the moral considerability of nonhuman animals involves the search for some set of characteristics or properties that nonhuman animals possess sufficient for their robust membership in the sphere of things morally considerable. The most common strategy has been to identify some set of properties intrinsic to the animals themselves. -

Foie Gras “
Foie Gras “Fake News”: A Fictitious Rashi and a Strangely Translated Ethical Will Foie Gras “Fake News”: A Fictitious Rashi and a Strangely Translated Ethical Will by Ari Z. Zivotofsky Controversial topics can sometimes lead to contrived sources, i.e. fake news. That is certainly true with the effort by vegetarians to find traditional sources to support their position. In the past I have shown how a booklet claiming Judaism supports vegetarianism was full of misquotes (here here ) and how a “quote” of the Rema was fabricated ( here ). Here I will expose two fake quotes that have been used by vegetarians in the battle against foie gras. Foie gras (pronounced “fwä-grä, meaning “fat liver” in French) is the fattened liver of a waterfowl that grew to 5-10 times its usual size due to gavage. Foie gras, a delicacy today rightly associated with the French who are indeed by far the largest producers and consumers of it, was for much of history an Ashkenazi Jewish expertise. This luxury item has been the subject of a great deal of controversy in recent years. Until its production was banned in 2003 by the Supreme Court, Israel was one of the leading producers in the world. Within the last year, kosher foie gras has begun to be produced in the US for the first time in history. The issue driving the current debate is animal welfare, or in the Jewish world, tza’ar ba’alei chaim. For hundreds of years, in traditional Jewish sources “stuffed goose” was indeed controversial, but not because of animal welfare. -

THINKING ABOUT STRATEGY by David S. Meyer, UC-Irvine and Suzanne Staggenborg, McGill University Prepared for delivery at American Sociological Association, Collective Behavior/Social Movement Section’s Workshop, “Movement Cultures, Strategies, and Outcomes,” August 9-10, 2007, Hofstra University, Hempstead, New York. On June 24, 2007, a home-made bomb failed to explode near the home of Dr. Arthur Rosenbaum, a research opthamologist at UCLA. The Animal Liberation Brigade claimed credit for the bomb, issuing a communique to an animal rights website. According to the Brigade: 130am on the twenty forth of june: 1 gallon of fuel was placed and set a light under the right front corner of Arthur Rosenbaums large white shiney BMW. He and his wife....are the target of rebellion for the vile and evil things he does to primates at UCLA. We have seen by our own eyes the torture on fully concious primates in his lab. We have heard their whimpers and screeches of pain. Seeing this drove one of us to rush out and vomit. We have seen hell and its in Rosenbaums lab. Rosenbaum, you need to watch your back because next time you are in the operating room or walking to your office you just might be facing injections into your eyes like the primates, you sick twisted fuck” (Animal Liberation Brigade, 2007, sic). The bomb alerted scientists about dangers they might face if they used certain animals in their experiments, and signaled to animal rights sympathizers that aggressive action was possible. It also engaged a range of authorities. The FBI’s counterterrorism division in Los Angeles responded, offering a reward of $110,000 for information leading to the arrests and convictions of those responsible for the attack (Gordon 2007). -

A Right of Ethical Consideration for Non-Human Animals
A Right of Ethical Consideration for Non-Human Animals By Michael Ray Harris1 ++++++++ We must fight against the spirit of unconscious cruelty with which we treat the animals. Animals suffer as much as we do. True humanity does not allow us to impose such sufferings on them. It is our duty to make the whole world recognize it. Until we extend our circle of compassion to all living things, we ourselves will not find peace. --Albert Schweitzer INTRODUCTION For millennia, humans have philosophized over the appropriate legal status and rights due to other species with whom we share this planet.2 Given this lengthy discourse, it is not difficult to understand how many current scholars might conclude that while the idea of legal rights for animals remains “theoretically interesting,” it is “far removed” from practical reality.3 There is, however, an unmistakable difference in the conversation about animal rights today. It is no longer a discussion reserved for the scholarly. The question over legal rights for some, if not all, animals, has become a subject of intense public debate 1 Director, Wildlife Law Program, Friends of Animals.
