WatchDog discusses the surprisingly animal unfriendly  policies of the American Veterinary Medical Association

Guests:

 

Karen Davis, Ph.D., is the founder and President of United Poultry Concerns, a national non-profit organization that addresses the treatment of domestic fowl in food production, science, education, entertainment, and human companionship situations. She has led the effort to have Gregg Cutler, who condoned the mass killing of chickens in a woodchipper, removed from the AVMA's animal welfare committee.

Peter Singer, Professor of Bioethics at Princeton University, is the author of Animal Liberation, first published in 1975. He heads up Animal Rights International, founded by the late Henry Spira. That organization targets the AVMA for animal unfriendly practices.
