Zusammenfassung:To expand the range of perspectives brought to bear on the concept of animal victim status, in this chapter, practitioners with different backgrounds explore and respond to the arguments that have been espoused against assigning animals’ victim status.

Contributors also discuss the equity and utility of criminal justice, both as a legal field and a governmental system, and the degree to which those answers inform progress for animals.
