Animal Law Review

Toronto Pig Save and the Save Movement gained worldwide at­tention with the Pig Trial. The defense, with the help of a coali­tion of animal rights groups, was able to put animal agriculture on trial by focusing on the ethics, animal suffering, environ­ment, and health aspects of animal agriculture. Meanwhile, the Save Movement is growing exponentially with 166 groups in seventeen countries bearing witness to animals headed to a slaughterhouse in local communities.
