摘要: Humans often intervene in the wild for anthropocentric or environmental reasons. An example of such interventions is reintroduction wolves places where they no longer live order to create what has been called an “ecology fear”, which being currently discussed as Scotland. In first part this paper I discuss reasons measure and argue that are not compatible with a nonspeciesist approach. Then, claim if we abandon speciesist viewpoint should change completely way nature. Rather than intervening reasons, do it reduce harms nonhuman animals suffer. This conflicts significantly some fundamental ideals whose defence consideration interests animals.
