Peter Singer

I chose to Peter Singer: he is a Australian utilitarian philosopher, was born in 1946 in Melbure, he studied law, history and philosophy in the university of Melburne, graduated in 1967 and then study in the university of Oxford.
He had a decisive influence in organizations that fight for animal rights, he opposes what he calls speciesism: discrimination of a living being by the mere fact of belonging to a particular species.
he wrote Animal Liberation in which he says that all animals have the same rights and are capable of feeling pain.
I chose to Peter Singer because I'm interestin in the animal welfare and the animal rights also because I believe that as veternarians have to do everything possible to defend animals.
