Animals in politics

The animal rights movement is growing and vegetarianism is becoming more popular. In this week's Radio UPF, you will hear Lovisa Prage and Shanshan Lu talk about the Faroe Islands where whale killing is an ancient tradition that faces increasing protests. Jessika-Kina Ouimet and Anna Ekholm discuss how vegetarianism can be seen in relation to class and Takeshi Stokoe spoke to Ben Williamson from the organization PETA about controversial methods in animal's rights activism. Lovisa Prage will reflect on the protection of endangered species in relation to socioeconomic problems in Central America, and with us in the studio is Carolina Ekström, president of Animal’s Rights in Lund.
