Quotes from leaders of the animal rights movement

Pets and Pet Ownership versus Guardianship

"In a perfect world, animals would be free to live their lives to the
fullest: raising their young, enjoying their native environments, and
following their natural instincts. However, domesticated dogs and cats
cannot survive "free" in our concrete jungles, so we must take as good
care of them as possible. People with the time, money, love, and
patience to make a lifetime commitment to an animal can make an
enormous difference by adopting from shelters or rescuing animals from
a perilous life on the street. But it is also important to stop
manufacturing "pets," thereby perpetuating a class of animals forced
to rely on humans to survive." PETA pamphlet, Companion Animals: Pets
or Prisoners?

"I don't have a hands-on fondness for animals...To this day I don't feel
bonded to any non-human animal. I like them and I pet them and I'm
kind to them, but there's no special bond between me and other
animals." Wayne Pacelle
quoted in Bloodties: Nature, Culture and the Hunt by Ted Kerasote,
1993, p. 251.

"In a perfect world, we would not keep animals for our benefit,
including pets," Tom Regan, emeritus professor of philosophy at North
Carolina State University and author of "Empty Cages" - speaking at
University of Wisconsin-Madison campus, March 3, 2004

"Our goal: to convince people to rescue and adopt instead of buying or
selling animals, to disavow the language and concept of animal
ownership." Eliot Katz, President In Defense of Animals, In Defense of
Animals website, 2001

"I don't use the word "pet." I think it's speciesist language. I
prefer "companion animal." For one thing, we would no longer allow
breeding. People could not create different breeds. There would be no
pet shops. If people had companion animals in their homes, those
animals would have to be refugees from the animal shelters and the
streets. You would have a protective relationship with them just as
you would with an orphaned child. But as the surplus of cats and dogs
(artificially engineered by centuries of forced breeding) declined,
eventually companion animals would be phased out, and we would return
to a more symbiotic relationship - enjoyment at a distance." Ingrid
Newkirk, PETA vice-president, quoted in The Harper's Forum Book, Jack
Hitt, ed., 1989, p.223.

"It is time we demand an end to the misguided and abusive concept of
animal ownership. The first step on this long, but just, road would be
ending the concept of pet ownership." Elliot Katz, President "In
Defense of Animals," Spring 1997

"Pet ownership is an absolutely abysmal situation brought about by
human manipulation." Ingrid Newkirk, national director, People for the
Ethical Treatment of Animals (PeTA), Just Like Us? Harper's, August
1988, p. 50.

"Liberating our language by eliminating the word 'pet' is the first
step... In an ideal society where all exploitation and oppression has
been eliminated, it will be NJARA's policy to oppose the keeping of
animals as 'pets.'" New Jersey Animal Rights Alliance, "Should Dogs Be
Kept As Pets? NO!" Good Dog! February 1991, p. 20.

"Let us allow the dog to disappear from our brick and concrete
jungles--from our firesides, from the leather nooses and chains by
which we enslave it." John Bryant, Fettered Kingdoms: An Examination
of A Changing Ethic Washington, DC: People for the Ethical Treatment
of Animals, (PeTA), 1982, p. 15.

"The cat, like the dog, must disappear... We should cut the domestic
cat free from our dominance by neutering, neutering, and more
neutering, until our pathetic version of the cat ceases to exist."
John Bryant, Fettered Kingdoms: An Examination of A Changing Ethic
(Washington, DC: People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PeTA),
1982, p. 15.

"As John Bryant has written in his book Fettered Kingdoms, they [pets]
are like slaves, even if well-kept slaves." PeTA's Statement on
Companion Animals.

"In a perfect world, all other than human animals would be free of
human interference, and dogs and cats would be part of the ecological
scheme." PeTA's Statement on Companion Animals.

"You don't have to own squirrels and starlings to get enjoyment from
them ... One day, we would like an end to pet shops and the breeding
of animals. [Dogs] would pursue their natural lives in the wild ...
they would have full lives, not wasting at home for someone to come
home in the evening and pet them and then sit there and watch TV,"
Ingrid Newkirk, national director, People for the Ethical Treatment of
Animals (PeTA), Chicago Daily Herald, March 1, 1990.

Animal Agriculture and Breeding Purebred Dogs and Pedigreed Cats

"We have no ethical obligation to preserve the different breeds of
livestock produced through selective breeding. . One generation and
out. We have no problem with the extinction of domestic animals. They
are creations of human selective breeding." Wayne Pacelle, Senior VP
of Humane Society of the US, formerly of Friends of Animals and Fund
for Animals, Animal People, May, 1993
When asked if he envisioned a future without pets, "If I had my
personal view, perhaps that might take hold. In fact, I don't want to
see another dog or cat born." Wayne Pacelle quoted in Bloodties:
Nature, Culture and the Hunt by Ted Kerasote, 1993, p. 266.

"[A]s the surplus of cats and dogs {artificially engineered by
centuries of forced breeding) declined, eventually companion animals
would be phased out, and we would return to a more symbiotic
relationship--enjoyment at a distance." Ingrid Newkirk, "Just Like Us?
Toward a Notion of Animal Rights", Harper's, August 1988, p. 50.

"[Animal] Fancies provide an escape from the real world, a sense of
purpose in a lot of purposeless lives, a chance to play God by
breeding animals, and a chance to play celebrity by showing them."
Phil Maggitti, The Animals' Agenda, December 1991.

"Breeders must be eliminated! As long as there is a surplus of
companion animals in the concentration camps referred to as
"shelters", and they are killing them because they are homeless, one
should not be allowed to produce more for their own amusement and
profit. If you know of a breeder in the Los Angeles area, whether
commercial or private, legal or illegal, let us know and we will post
their name, location, phone number so people can write them letters
telling them 'Don't Breed or Buy, While Others DIE.'" "Breeders! Let's
get rid of them too!" Campaign on Animal Defense League's website,
September 2, 2003.

"I'm not only uninterested in having children. I am opposed to having
children. Having a purebred human baby is like having a purebred dog;
it is nothing but vanity, human vanity." Ingrid Newkirk, PeTA's
founder and president, New Yorker magazine, April 23, 2003

"Our goal is to make [the public think of] breeding [dogs and cats]
like drunk driving and smoking." Kim Sturla, former director of the
Peninsula Humane Society and Western Director of Fund for Animals,
stated during Kill the Crisis, not the Animals campaign and workshops,
1991

"The bottom line is that people don't have the right to manipulate or
to breed dogs and cats ... If people want toys, they should buy
inanimate objects. If they want companionship, they should seek it
with their own kind," Ingrid Newkirk, founder, president and former
national director, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PeTA),
Animals, May/June 1993

"My goal is the abolition of all animal agriculture." JP Goodwin,
employed at the Humane Society of the US, formerly at Coalition to
Abolish the Fur Trade, as quoted on AR-Views, an animal rights

the Ethical Treatment of Animals, as quoted in Chip Brown, "She's A
Portrait of Zealotry in Plastic Shoes," Washington Post, November 13,
1983, p. B10.

"Deep down, I truly hope that oppression, torture and murder return to
each uncaring human tenfold! I hope that fathers accidentally shoot
their sons on hunting excursions, while carnivores suffer heart
attacks that kill them slowly. Every women ensconced in fur should
endure a rape so vicious that it scars them forever. While every man
entrenched in fur should suffer an anal raping so horrific that they
become disemboweled. Every rodeo cowboy and matador should be gored to
death, while circus abusers are trampled by elephants and mauled by
tigers. And, lastly, may irony shine its esoteric head in the form of
animal researchers catching debilitating diseases and painfully
withering away because research dollars that could have been used to
treat them was wasted on the barbaric, unscientific practice of
vivisection." Gary Yourofsky in an interview on The Abolitionist -
Online, 2005

"Humans are exploiters and destroyers, self-appointed world autocrats
around whom the universe seems to revolve." Sydney Singer, director,
the Good Shepherd Foundation, "The Neediest of All Animals," The
Animals Agenda, Vol. 10, No. 5 (June 1990), p. 50.

"If you haven't given voluntary human extinction much thought before,
the idea of a world with no people in it may seem strange. But, if you
give it a chance, I think you might agree that the extinction of Homo
Sapiens would mean survival for millions, if not billions, of Earth-
dwelling species ... Phasing out the human race will solve every
problem on earth, social and environmental." "Les U.
Knight" (pseudonym), "Voluntary Human Extinction," Wild Earth, Vol. 1,
No. 2, (Summer 1991), p. 72.

"We feel that animals have the same rights as retarded human nchild
because they are equal mentally in terms of dependence on others."
Alex Pacheco, Director, PETA, New York Times, January 14, 1989.

what? It's gonna get solved. Saying that human concerns outweigh
animal concerns is just more bullshit." Chris DeRose, Last Chance for
Animals: SHAC rally, Edison, New Jersey, November 30, 2002

p. 24.

"I am not a morose person, but I would rather not be here. I don't

Newkirk, founder, president and former national director, People for
the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PeTA), as quoted in Chip Brown,
"She's a Portrait of Zealotry in Plastic Shoes," Washington Post,
November 13, 1983, p. B10.

"What could be the basis of our having more inherent value than
animals? Their lack of reason, or autonomy, or intellect? Only if we
are willing to make the same judgment in the case of humans who are
similarly deficient." Tom Regan, "The Case for Animal Rights," In
Defense of Animals, Peter Singer, ed. (Oxford: Blackwell, 1985), p.
23.

Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) just passed their vegan
policy. They are seen as the mothering organization for the SPCAs,
shelters and animal control agencies. And the fact that they have
adopted a vegan policy may just be the major breakthrough to bring
others along. All HSUS expos, trainings, conferences will be vegan. "

nov04/sturla.html)

Animal Welfare vs. Animal Rights

of animal welfare... Animal rights means dramatic social changes for
humans and non-humans alike; if our bourgeois values prevent us from
accepting those changes, then we have no right to call ourselves
advocates of animal rights." Gary Francione, The Animals' Voice, Vol.
4, No. 2 (undated), pp. 54-55.

"I find that as I get older I seem to become more of a Luddite... And
hearing animal experimenters describe me as a Luddite--which used to
think I was not. And now I think Ned Lud had the right idea and we
should have stopped all the machinery way back when, and learned to
live simple lives." Ingrid Newkirk, national director, People for the
Ethical Treatment of Animals (PeTA), speech at Loyola University,
October 24, 1988.

"Not only are the philosophies of animal rights and animal welfare
separated by irreconcilable differences... the enactment of animal
welfare measures actually impedes the achievement of animal rights...
Welfare reforms, by their very nature, can only serve to retard the
pace at which animal rights goals are achieved." Gary Francione and
Tom Regan, "A Movement's Means Create Its Ends," The Animals' Agenda,
January/February 1992, pp. 40-42.

Violence Escalate, Primate Researchers stand Firm", Chronicle of

"The major success of this decade [the 1980s] has been the
reapplication of the concept of rights in the human population to
nonhuman species." John Kullberg, president, American Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, as quoted in Charles Oliver,
"Liberation Zoology," Reason, 22, No. 2 (June 1990), p. 24.

"As long as humans have rights and non-humans do not, as is the case
in the welfarist framework, then non-humans will virtually always lose
when their interests conflict with human interests. Thus welfare
reforms, by their very nature, can only serve to retard the pace at
which animal rights goals are achieved." Francione & Regan, "A
Movement's Means Create Its Ends," Animals' Agenda, Jan.-Feb., 1992

"...the animal rights movement is not concerned about species
extinction. An elephant is no more or less important than a cow, just
as a dolphin is no more important than a tuna...In fact, many animal
rights advocates would argue that it is better for the chimpanzee to
become extinct than to be exploited continually in laboratories, zoos
and circuses." Barbara Biel, The Animals' Agenda, Vol 15 #3.

"It's not about loving animals. It's about fighting injustice. My
whole goal is for humans to have as little contact as possible with
animals." Gary Yourofsky, founder of Animals Deserve Adequate
Protection Today and Tomorrow (ADAPTT), now employed as PeTA's
national lecturer
"We're looking for good lawsuits that will establish the interests of
animals as a legitimate area of concern in law." Ingrid Newkirk,
PeTA's founder and president, Insight on the News. July 17, 2000

"We are not especially 'interested in' animals. Neither of us had ever
been inordinately fond of dogs, cats, or horses in the way that many
people are. We didn't 'love' animals." Peter Singer, Animal
Liberation: A New Ethic for Our Treatment of Animals, 2nd ed. (New
York Review of Books, 1990), Preface, p. ii.

challenge corporate agriculture." Wayne Pacelle, Senior VP Humane
Society of the US, formerly of Friends of Animals and Fund for
Animals, at the Animal Rights 2002" Convention, July 1, 2002.

"Once we get three more directors elected, the Sierra Club will no
longer be pro-hunting and pro-trapping and we can use the resources of
the $95-million-a-year budget to address some of these issues." Paul
Watson, Founder, Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, NY Times, March
16, 2004

"If we are not able to bring the churches, the synagogues, [and] the
mosques around to the animal rights view, we will never make large-
scale progress for animal rights in the United States." Norm Phelps,
Program Director, Fund for Animals: "Animal Rights 2002" convention,
July 2, 2002.

Criminal Acts and Terrorism

"We are not terrorists, but we are a threat. We are a threat both
economically and philosophically. Our power is not in the right to
vote but the power to stop production. We will break the law and
destroy property until we win." Dr. Steven Best, speaking at
International Animal Rights Gathering 2005. The Telegram (UK) July 17,
2005.

"Given the choice of apathy or someone liberating mink, burning down a
research torture-laboratory, or killing a vivisectionist or other
DIRECT murderer of animals, I will choose the aforesaid actions over
apathy any day of the week....since violence is an essential part of
activism, even if an abuser of animals perished during a fire or other
form of direct action, I would unequivocally support that, too. Gary
Yourofsky, in an article he wrote, quoted in "Animal Rights Extremism
Meets Academia" by Jacob Laskin, April 19, 2007.

"Here's a little model I'm going to show you here. I didn't have any
incense, but -- this is a crude incendiary device. It is a simple
plastic jug, which you fill with gasoline and oil. You put in a
sponge, which is soaked also in flammable liquid -- I couldn't find an
incense stick, but this represents that. You put the incense stick in
here, light it, place it -- underneath the 'weapon of mass
destruction,' light the incense stick - sandalwood works nice -- and
you destroy the profits that are brought about through animal and
earth abuse. That's about -- two dollars. " Rodney Coronado, animal
rights felon for the 1992 Michigan State University fireboming, and
recipient of PeTA funds, speaking at "National conference on Organized
Resistance, American University, Washington DC, January 26, 2003.
Note: Coronado pled guilty to the charges stemming from the 1992 MSU
arson case but even so, PeTA donated $45,200 to the Coronado Support
Committee in 1995. During the previous year, while Coronado was still
on the loose and living underground, PeTA granted a loan (not yet
repaid) to Coronado's father for $25,000.

"If someone is killing, on a regular basis, thousands of animals, and

then it is certainly a morally justifiable solution." Jerry Vlasak,

"It is dangerous to engage in even the most innocuous-seeming
discourse with the FBI/ Homeland Security/ a local detective." Ingrid
Newkirk, PeTA's founder and president, Letter to activists posted on
Yahoo, March 17, 2003

"So-called activists who talk to the police disgust me, and I think
one of the major reasons the animal liberation movement has not made
more significant gains is because many activists do not understand the
evolutionary nature of this movement. We're fighting a major war,
defending animals and our very planet from human greed and
destruction. There is no room for collaborators." David Barbarash,
Spokesperson for the Animal Liberation Front (ALF) No Compromise, the
journal of the Animal Liberation Front

"There are about 2,000 people prepared at any one time to take action
for us ... The children [of targeted scientists and executives] are
enjoying a lifestyle built on the blood and abuse of innocent animals.
Why should they be allowed to close the door on that and sit down and
watch TV and enjoy themselves when animals are suffering and dying
because of the actions of the family breadwinner? They are a
justifiable target for protest." Robin Webb, ALF leader, Sunday Herald
( Scotland) Sept. 19, 2004

"KFC has no excuse for refusing to adopt these basic, minimal animal-
welfare standards ... After two years of fruitless negotiations with
the company, we're trying a more personal approach." Bruce Friedrich,

PeTA's intent to dispatch activists to Louisville, KFC's headquarters,
to interact with the community, churches, institutions, neighbors of
KFC's president, and CEO, etc., in order to get KFC to submit to
PeTA's demands.

"When you're a 20-something grassroots activist, and you're deciding
how to spend your time and money to make a difference, it makes a lot
of sense to cause a million in damage with just $100 of investment.
That's a better return than any other form of activism I've been
involved in." Rodney Coronado, LA Weekly, August 29, 2003.

"It won't ruin our movement if someone gets killed in an animal rights
action. It's going to happen sooner or later. The Animal Liberation
Front, the Earth Liberation Front -- sooner or later there's going to
be someone getting hurt. And we have to accept that fact. It's going
to happen. It's not going to hurt our movement. Our movement will go
on. And it's important that we not let the bully pulpit of the FBI and
the other oppression agencies stop us from what we're doing. They are
the violent ones. They are the terrorists ... we have to keep doing
what we're doing." Jerry Vlasak, PCRM spokesman and Director of ADL,

"In England we do have some problems with legislation that prevents us
from buying certain products, but over here you don't have the same

out and get animal liberation! Robin Webb, British Animal Rights
Terrorist, speaking at a Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty (SHAC) rally,
Edison, New Jersey, November 30, 2002

"I think violence is part of the struggle against oppression. If
something bad happens to these people [animal researchers], it will
discourage others. It is inevitable that violence will be used in the
struggle and that it will be effective." Jerry Vlasak, The Observer,

"Whether or not the public regards . . . direct action as fringe or as
extremist or terroristic or whatever label they want to put on it,

"Bank executives have had their yachts sunk behind their houses. Cars
have been blown up; windows have been smashed; offices have been
stormed. We're tired of yelling at buildings -- no one cares. We're
tired of yelling at executives while they're in those buildings, and
allowing them to go home and forget about us who are out there that
afternoon -- we're going to their homes. We're doing what's effective.
We're shutting this company down." Lauren James, Organizer,

"I am convinced that we can shut down a lot of these animal abuse
industries whether the public agrees with it or not. And whether these

me, doesn't really matter. David Barbarash, Spokesperson for the

"A burning building doesn't help melt people's hearts, but times
change and tactics, I'm sure, have to change with them. If you choose
to carry out ALF-style actions, I ask you to please not say more than
you need to, to think carefully who you trust, to learn all you can
about how to behave if arrested, and so to try to live to fight
another day." Ingrid Newkirk, PeTA's founder and president, Interview
in ALF quarterly Bite Back, February, 2003

"Why should any one of us feel that 'it shouldn't be me taking that
brick and chucking it through that window? Why shouldn't I be going to
that fur farm down the road and opening up those cages?' It's not
hard; it doesn't take a rocket scientist. You don't need a 4-year
degree to call in a bomb hoax. These are easy things, and they're
things that save animals: And so I want all of you in this room to, A)
Question not just what is right and wrong, but what is effective, And
B) why can't all of us be doing it? I think the animal rights movement

"If we really believe that animals have the same right to be free from
pain and suffering at our hands, then, of course we're going to be, as
a movement, blowing things up and smashing windows ... I think it's a
great way to bring about animal liberation ... I think it would be
great if all of the fast-food outlets, slaughterhouses, these
laboratories, and the banks that fund them exploded tomorrow. I think
it's perfectly appropriate for people to take bricks and toss them

"Believe me, you don't have to worry about prison. I've been there --
it's a doggle. You can put your feet up and recharge your batteries,

wrecking bar we purchased ... for less than $5. We consider that a
pretty good return on our investment." ALF memo about destruction of
lab at U. of Oregon Oct. 1986
If a car being blown up in a driveway or animals being liberated from
a lab scares them, then I would say that fear pales by comparison to
the fear that the animals have every day. The kind of true violence
that these animals endure at the hands of people at Huntingdon leaves
me with little sympathy. Kevin Kjonaas, National Director and

"Throughout the late '80s, me and a handful of friends just like you
people here, we started to break windows, we started to slash tires,
we started to rescue animals from factory farms and vivisection
breeders, and we graduated to breaking into laboratories . As long as
we emptied the labs of animals, they were still easily replaced. So
that's when the ALF in this country, and my cell, started engaging in
arson." Rodney Coronado, convicted felon for 1992 Michigan State
University firebombing and PeTA funds beneficiary, speaking at SHAC

"Last night in San Diego a bunch of townhouses were burned down, and
reporters from two corporate TV stations just asked me, 'What good
does that do your movement?'... If that hadn't happened, you wouldn't
be here tonight. People willing to risk their lives to protect the
environment by destroying buildings built on the habitat of endangered
species make people take notice... Fire is a very sacred power, one of
the key elements of our planet...We use fire to cleanse ourselves, and
when we address buildings and institutions that have no other purpose
but to destroy life, fire is the only way to stop them. When people
ask if someday someone might get hurt by one of our actions, I ask
them why they don't get so concerned about the people who are killing
animals for a living. That is what the terrorism in this society is.
Destroying property to protect life is the most sacred thing we can
do." Rod Coronado, Earth Liberationist, convicted arsonist in 1992

"If that means going onto their farms, releasing their animals and
burning the place to the ground, that's morally justifiable, in our
opinion...There were always innocent people who got hurt somewhere along
the way but it was important that those who oppressed one group of
people be stopped, and we don't see the animal liberation struggle
being substantially different from these [apartheid and slavery] other
struggles.... A sustained campaign against a particular industry or a
particular organization has the potential to be quite effective."

"Animal liberation, of which the anti-vivisection movement is a part,

know. People can support bringing animals out of labs, but they can't
support arson. Well, I'm sorry. I'm not here to, to please people. I'm
not here to win the support of people. I'm here to represent my animal

"Setting fire to the feed truck falls within the work they [the ALF]
do. It was most likely done in an effort to cause the most damage
possible to the farm without hurting anyone or any animals. What these
farmers do to chickens is terrorism -- what we do is not." David
Barbarash, Associated Press story filed after the arson of a poultry
truck in Indiana caused $100,000 in damage, July 3, 2000

"Getting together three or four friends of mine, we came back a week
later to that farm, we broke into the main laboratory, we trashed
every single piece of equipment, we stole documents and lists of fur
farms across the nation. And we started a fire in an experimental fur
farm, an experimental feed building, where they manufactured the
experimental diets which were the focus of research at this farm. And
that fire destroyed all the equipment, and in the ensuing raid, the
raid that happened caused enough damage that six months later that lab
was forced to shut down. That was five people, folks -- once again
maybe like twelve hundred dollars, a couple weeks of planning, five
people. But that wasn't the end. I knew I had to continue, and for the
next -- oh gosh, a little over a year -- we took out, one by one,
every recipient of what's called the Mink Farmers Research Foundation.
It's a foundation whose sole purpose is to aid research to benefit the
fur farm industry." Rodney Coronado, convicted felon for 1992 Michigan

um, let's see -- the Northwest Fur Breeders Cooperative in Edmonds,
Washington, which we hit a week later after OSU. We hit Washington
State University's Eastern Washington experimental fur farm. We did
get seven coyotes out of there, six mink, and ten mice . We burned
down a fur farm that was on the market to be sold, in Oregon also. We
went to the Michigan State University's experimental fur farm program
