However, these debates have not yet adequately addressed the welfare of a growing population of vulnerable animals within wild and exotic animal caf\u00e9s. This paper addresses the issue of animal rights in a wild animal caf\u00e9 context, with an emphasis on Singer\u2019s principle of equal consideration of interests. Specifically, in this paper, I will examine the intrinsic harms of animal caf\u00e9s, their negative externalities, and the moral standing of these animals, to show that wild animal caf\u00e9s are impermissible in their current form. This paper argues that animal caf\u00e9s\u2019 harms violate the rights of animals, and thus warrant tightened regulation and, in the case of wild and exotic animal caf\u00e9s, potential closure. In conclusion, this paper, by closely examining the moral status of animals in the wild and exotic animal caf\u00e9 context, sheds new light on the oft-neglected issue of animal rights protections in caf\u00e9s.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Key words<\/h4>\n<p>Animal rights, moral standing, animal welfare, animal caf\u00e9, principle of equal consideration of interests<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Isabella Braga<br \/>\nVolume 2 Issue 2 Pages 1-8<br \/>\nFirst Published: March 30, 2020<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[43],"class_list":["post-198","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-regular-article","tag-volume-2-issue-2"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/cbel.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/cbel.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/cbel.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cbel.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cbel.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=198"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/cbel.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":200,"href":"http:\/\/cbel.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198\/revisions\/200"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/cbel.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=198"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cbel.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=198"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cbel.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=198"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
