Brazilian Animal Rights Review

Brazilian Animal Rights Review

The Brazilian Animal Rights Review was the first legal journal about Animal rights of Latin America. It is edited by Heron Santana and Luciano Rocha Santana. In Portuguese it is named "Revista Brasileira de Direito Animal".

This periodical has an interdisciplinary character: Law, Philosophy and Veterinary Medicine and other studies.
