"Animal Rights" is based upon the premise that animals have the same
fundamental interests as humans, such as survival and freedom to pursue
basic instincts, and that humans do *not* have the moral right to exploit
animals in contradiction of those interests. Whether or not animals
experience "emotions", however you define it, is a peripheral issue.
