Animal Welfare in Matthew Scully's 'Dominion'

 

Dec. 28, 2002

 

Host Scott Simon talks with Matthew Scully, author of Dominion a book on " animal

welfare. " It's published by St. Martin's Press. Mr. Scully criticizes the

factory farm where animals are treated as mere products, and raised and

slaughtered in a way that maximizes profits and minimizes decency. Instead

Scully argues that humans are morally responsible for protecting animal welfare,

and must treat all animals, even those bred for slaughter, in as humane a way as

possible.
