	Throughout most of history, human beings adopted more and more enlightened standards of animal "welfare" 
	for their pets, livestock, and laboratory animals. Insisting on humane treatment for animals was an important 
	economic decision. Farmers know that happy livestock animals produce more milk, better beef, and more valuable 
	leather. Medical researchers know that their scientific work is meaningless without healthy lab animals. 
	Animal welfare standards are just one way humans acknowledge the important bond between us and the animal world.

	But beginning in the second half of the twentieth century, activists lost their way. Instead of striving to 
	strengthen this relationship by improving the lives of animals in our care, an extremist movement began attempting 
	to terminate that connection entirely. Today, we call it the animal "rights" movement.
