Claire, Ruby and Nick discuss representations of animal rights in the media, focusing on the cartoon BoJack Horseman and the manga The Darwin Incident by Shun Umezawa. We cover the portrayal of anthropomorphised (human-like) animals in these examples, factory farmed versus "free-range" animal products and factions within the animal advocacy movement.

 Thanks so much to everyone who donated to our Radiothon campaign! The target for our show was $1500 and we have already exceeded that, with $1850 donated so far! 3CR is still trying to reach the overall target for the station of $275,000, with over $220,000 raised so far. Any donations to our Give Now page will go towards that overall target to keep 3CR on the air. Thanks again to those who have already donated and we appreciate any additional donations to help get 3CR over the line! https://givenow.com.au/cr/freedomofspecies
