I cannot speak on behalf of Martina Gebhardt, so I will summarize the general position on animal rights held by many people in the animal liberation movement. This position is that animals have a moral right not to be harmed or exploited by humans. Many people in the movement also believe that animals should be given legal rights as well, such as the right not to be used in experiments or eaten. There are many reasons why this position is good. To start with, it recognizes that animals are sentient beings capable of suffering and experiencing pleasure. They are not simply machines or objects to be used for human purposes. In addition, the position acknowledges that animals have an intrinsic value, regardless of their usefulness to humans. Finally, it seeks to create a more humane and compassionate world in which animals are respected and treated with respect.
