“The question is not, ‘Can they reason?’, nor ‘Can they talk?’ but, ‘Can they suffer?’ Why should the law refuse its protection to any sensitive being?” was a statement made by Jeremy Bentham from his book “Introduction to the Principles of Moral and Legislation”. In response to animals suffering, many will excuse the pain by explaining that animals cannot feel pain or live in reason as a human does.
