Present day animal protection regulations that subscribe to a mainstream liberal point of view, apply different standards to humans and animals, and also safeguard some animals more than others. It is advocated that to achieve better protection of animals, it would be advisable to first address the discrimination amongst different types of animals before attempting to challenge inconsistencies between humans and animals.
