  ...insic worth that is to be protected regardless of any physical or mental stress. According to this concept, animals are protected from humiliation, excessive instrumentalization, and far-reaching interference with their outer appearance or abilities. This means that they are also protected from stress that is not necessarily associated with pain, suffering, harm, or fear.   Animal dignity protection is a milestone in animal welfare law and by granting animals a legally protected value regardless of their sentience it is an advance into a biocentric dimension. Accordingly, the concept has arous...
