Do babies have rights, and if so what responsibilities are implied in those rights?

As humans have the intellect to make decisions, we have the responsibility to let animals live their way in their habitat.

It is the way of the world and this kind of respect has been practised by many tribes for thousands of years.

Question is, where is the foundation to say that we have responsibility to the animals??? You haven't justify why it is our responsibility? Otherwise it's just your arbituary opinion to look after them. Do flies have rights?

in my house the animals demand their rights.............daily

They're given the right by virtue of them being humans and responsibiility will be enforce on them once they're able to comprehend their actions.

Animal Law ..

Animal Law has gained increasing recognition as a distinct legal discipline in recent years. This is reflected by the emergence of courses in Animal Law across Australia.................

Very heartening to see.

I guess I am saying since humans have the intellect to make decisions and it is not instinctually in humans to be unkind to any species, with this intellect comes responsibility.

Something that goes back a long way amongst tribal elders.

To intentionally hurt or kill flies, one could say they have the right to live.

To instinctively shoo or swat a fly because it has impeded the human, is the tribulations/accidents of life.

If I have a fly in the house, I will chase it into the back of the house and open the door.
