Welcome to the first-ever Paw & Order holiday special! Hosts Peter and Camille get into Santa mode in this episode, giving out animal law-themed “gifts” to people, animals, countries—some funny, some serious. We’ve never had more fun recording an episode!
The news doesn’t stop over the holidays, and the hosts also discuss a disappointing ruling in a horse transport case that let the CFIA off the hook; a mink farm going out of business in Newfoundland; horrific conditions exposed by animal activists at a Quebec pig farm; and a dairy farmer jailed for long-term neglect of cows.
Our final hero of 2019 is animal law scholar Will Kymlicka, who just won a $100,000 grant to examine citizenship models for animals. And the zero is Cooke Seafood Hatchery, a fish farm that won’t face animal cruelty charges despite video footage of horrific fish abuse.
As mentioned on this episode, you can find our Year In Review video here.
