Reviews

Attention to wild animal suffering may be the most important recent development in animal ethics. It threatens to reverse a host of common judgments in environmental advocacy, conservation biology, and philanthropic cause prioritization. Kyle Johannsen has done an admirable job explaining why it matters, why we ought to do something about it, and feasible strategies for helping. This is book is essential reading for anyone concerned about wild animals and our responsibilities to them. - Bob Fischer, Department of Philosophy, Texas State University
