A right, unlike an interest, is a valid claim, or potential claim, made by a moral agent, under principles that govern both the claimant and the target of the claim. Animals cannot be the bearers of rights because the concept of rights is essentially human; it is rooted in and has force within a human moral world.
权利不同于利益，它是道德主体依据适用于权利主张者和权利主张对象的原则所提出的有效主张或潜在主张。动物不能成为权利的承载者，因为权利概念本质上是属人的；它扎根于人类道德世界并在其中具有效力。
