This book presents a collection of essays exploring the legal,
economic, socio-environmental, and ethical dimensions of
human-animal interaction in Brazil. As one of the primary global
producers and exporters of beef, with a level of biodiversity in
its rain-forests found nowhere else under threat, the importance of
Brazil for animal life is unquestionable. Shedding light on the
profound transformations in the consumption and production of
animal-sourced foods that have taken place over the last five
decades, the authors examine the consequences of this phenomenon
for the lives of animals, the health of the population, and the
environment. The book also offers an analysis of the animal welfare
and animal protection legislation in Brazil, before presenting a
number of notable cases involving animal advocacy and activism in
recent years. An important and timely collection, this book
concludes with an exploration of the historical, socio-cultural and
economic aspects that influence the Brazilian ethos regarding the
morality of the treatment of animals.
