[edit] Animal rights vs. animal welfare
There are important differences between animal rights and animal welfare (see discussion on AW page). I don't think the two types of groups should have been merged. Rosemary Amey 18:56, 27 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- I agree. These two lists shouldn't have been merged. Also, merging them has caused the need for explanation at the head of the page to say what the difference is between them. A similar explanation is already on both the "animal welfare" and the "animal rights" pages so this is not only duplication but triplication.

- I only just saw these comments, nearly two years after the fact! Don't let anyone say we're unresponsive. ;-D
- I've split the lists into animal welfare, on the one hand, and animal rights on the other, as the two are indeed very different and often work in direct opposition to one another. SlimVirgin (talk) 16:26, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
