Unheeded Governance Leads to Falling off Ecosystems: Critical Analysis on Human Interactions with Nonhuman Organisms
Abstract
Different arguments have been raised by
various scholars in relation to maintaining biodiversity and
assurance of animal welfare. At the mean time several
threats were posted against the sustainable development
of ecosystems due to unheeded governance of mankind.
Certain individuals and various nongovernmental
organizations have raised their voice on behalf of
nonhuman organisms, to share the environment equally
among all living beings amidst severe protests. Yet another
threat prevails from harmful and dangerous species such
as venomous snakes, communicative insects and
uncontrollable species. However still the law has not
demarcated any binary between conservable and
destroyable species and any legal system has not
pronounced appropriate rationale in terms of reserving
proportionate portion for each species against human
dominance. This paper intends to investigate appropriate
demarcation for conservable species based on sustainable
development of ecosystems excluding human factor. It
strives to resolve the research problem, “Why certain
nonhuman species are differently treated while others are
legally protected? It covers up with following research
questions. “Which are beneficial and which are dangerous?
Why certain kind of species are protected while some are
allowed to slaughter? Whether the sustainable
development of ecosystems is the only factor to ensure the
survival of nonhuman organisms. What is the rationale
behind the law to implement rules and regulations on
behalf of part of the species and whether the principle of
equality before the law applicable for nonhumans?
Primary objective of this research is to declare legal
standing for nonhuman organisms in terms of assuring
their wellbeing and to provide proportionately appropriate
opportunities for all in spite of human factor. Mainly this
research follows the black letter approach.
