Co-Hosts Jivan Ramesh and Sophia Wang have a conversation with two renowned animal law experts. The first is George Washington University Law School Professor Joan Schaffner, a frequent author on animal law who recently edited the Elgar Concise Encyclopedia of Animal Law. The second is American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Director of Federal Legislation Meredith Hou, a renowned expert on equine protection who contributed to that same encyclopedia. We chart the past, present, and future of animal law, and discuss how law students and young attorneys can begin getting involved.
