  1. Jay Sawyer of Chester, Dr Argues That Animals Should Not Be Regarded as Property Jay Sawyer of Chester, Dr is a well-known animal rights advocate who has always argued that it is high time that we stop regarding animals as property or treating them as resources for human purposes. He rather emphasizes on regarding them as legal persons. Jay goes on to explain how the term ‘animal rights’ is so much more than moral or personal philosophy. He strongly believes that animals deserve autonomy in full form, forbidding human beings from hunting, trapping, and/or confining them. Jay Sawyer believes that whereas all domestic animals deserve a kind human touch, the wild animals must be made capable of maintaining a natural balance without any kind of intervention from human beings. These rights of physical integrity also encompass right of no more bodily harm in terms of genetic engineering or extreme unhealthy forms of breeding. Jay further talks about how the step taken by Spanish Government to grant the right of life, freedom from arbitrary deprivation of liberty and protection from torture to apes is worthy of great appreciation. Jay Sawyer of Chester, Drfeels that it is because of mankind’s failure at giving the animals the rights and respect they deserve that we no longer find wild animals in large numbers. Many researchers have observed that even a simple contact with laboratory works can have devastating effect on animals. He further highlights that vivisection labs should be actively opposed as they cause the animals pain, misery, and even death in many cases. Jay points out that the fact that we resort to ruthless use of animals for reasons such as research and making products even when they
