Michael W. Fox
Biography Michael W. Fox is senior scholar at the Humane Society of  
the United States, the world?s richest animal-rights organization,  
which poses as an animal-welfare organization. Fox is widely known as  
the syndicated columnist of ?Ask Your Animal Doctor,? which appears  
weekly is over 120 newspapers nationwide. But he holds extreme views  
on the relationship between humans and animals.
Fox is a veterinarian who was born and educated in England. He is the  
author of more than 40 books, including Eating with Conscience: The  
Bioethics of Food. He and his wife founded the India Project for  
Animals and Nature (IPAN) and its sanctuary, Hill View Farm Animal  
Refuge. Using the picture of one of the refuge?s animals, IPAN  
proclaims, ?This sanctuary donkey will never experience the cruel fate  
of being sold into hard labor like other sanctuary donkeys before our  
arrival.?

Fox joined HSUS in 1976, and is a director of an HSUS affiliate called  
the Center for Respect of Life and Environment. Former HSUS CEO John  
Hoyt said the Center was created ?to let Dr. Fox direct some of his  
views in a channel that was an arm?s length removed from the HSUS.?

What are those controversial views about which Hoyt was so concerned?  
Fox holds the radical view that humans and animals have the same moral  
standing. ?We are not superior. There are no clear distinctions  
between us and animals,? Fox once told Washingtonian magazine. In his  
book The Inhumane Society, Fox?s opines: ?The life of an ant and that  
of my child should be granted equal consideration.?


Background Senior Scholar, Humane Society of the United States;
