Abstract

Recent activities by animal rights sympathizers in the UK at Shoreham, Brighton, Brightlingsea and Dover, campaigning against live transport of domestic animals, have again brought the issue of animal rights onto the front pages of newspapers in the UK. Television news bulletins have continued to show almost nightly scenes of violent protest as the police have struggled to keep demonstrators from disrupting the legal export of livestock. This is the public face of a continuing campaign to establish rights for animals that has gained strength sincethe early 1970s. It includes an on-going campaign against medical scientists who use animals in their research.
