The wave of responsibility and sustainability that currently permeates the tourism field is catalyzing deeper moral questions about equity, equality, rights, justice, and values in regards to what constitutes acceptable tourism practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTourism and Animal Ethics\u003c\/em\u003e represents a required extension of the sustainability imperative and environmental theory by providing a critical account of the role that animals play in tourism. This book explores the rich history of animal ethics research that lies outside the field of tourism for the purpose of providing greater theoretical, empirical and conceptual guidance inside the field. It examines historical and current practices of the use of animals in the tourism industry from both in situ to ex situ consumption and production perspectives, id\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The value of \u003cem\u003eTourism and Animal Ethics\u003c\/em\u003e is not that it is a unifying call to arms, but rather that it actively encourages debate and discussion about a topic that has gone largely without such meaningful dialog in tourism circles.\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e– Jonathan R.
