 FUR is DEAD |
The Centre for Ethical Treatment of Animals is the first Animal Rights organization in Russia. If traditional animal welfare organizations avoid the problem of the responsibility of man for all living beings on the earth the Animal Rights concept assumes that all animals are sentient beings feeling far, pain, joy just like a man, have their needs like a man. Justice alone deman, that their needs should be met, their life should be protected, they should be relieved of sufferings and have an opportunity to pursue their natural purposes. |

CETA considers it its priority goal to change people mentality and the status of animals in the society - to make people consider animals not as a material to be used for the satisfaction of human needs, but to treat them as their neighbours on the planet, sentitient beings, capable of emotions, of reasoning. The priority purposes of CEETA, thus, are: fighting for humane legislation protecting animals from cruel treatment, humane education aimed at teaching the young generation responsibility for all living beings on the earth, sympathy for the weaker beings. The third priority problem, according to CETA, is that of medical and biological research which should use alternatives to animals The Centre participates in the elaboration of humane laws, prepares manuals for secondary school and higher school - on bioethics - teaching young people to treat animals humainly, promotes these manuals, work out alternatives to animal research. | ||
