| Oct 11, 2022 at 7:33 | comment | added | user35069 | I've rolled-back to version 1 as the first edit to this question "deviates from the original intent of the post. Even edits that must make drastic changes should strive to preserve the goals of the post's owner." Also, that edit summary mentions "mockery in the comments", but the only comments appear to seek clarity and provide useful pointers. | |

Correcting gross errors in basic English language syntax that are the root of mockery in the comments.

"Animals are to be formally recognised as sentient beings in UK law for the first time, in a victory for animal welfare campaigners, as the government set out a suite of animal welfare measures including halting most live animal exports and banning the import of hunting trophies." | |

| Oct 10, 2022 at 16:51 | comment | added | Michael Seifert | You may find this law review article interesting, which discusses the legal distinctions between the "rights of nature" (in particular, the rights of species as a whole) vs. the "rights of [individual] animals". If I had to guess, I would assume that given its name, the Endangered Species Act does not confer protections on any individual Gray Wolves, only on the species as a whole. | |
