In 1987, Jolene Marion, Esq. wrote
“Whose Wildlife is it Anyway?” for
the Pace Environmental Law Review. She explained that there were no
scholarly articles to which she could refer when she argued in court for
wildlife protection – so she wrote her own.
Jolene was one of the first attorneys to practice animal rights law,
and she began and taught a course in animal rights law at Pace Law
School until her passing in 1994. The course was later taken over by
Suzan Porto, Esq. who held animal rights conferences at Pace that drew
close to 1,000 people every year. In 2003, David Cassuto, Esq. began
teaching the animal rights law course at Pace.
C.A.S.H. has obtained permission to put this wonderful article online
for all to use. We are hoping to have it updated in time. Meanwhile, it
can be quite helpful to attorneys and activists who are taking the legal
route to win cases for wildlife protection.
