First episode of the first season of the series ANIMALISTAS. A series of micro-episodes for social media in which two friends, Nuria and Ana Luna, debate veganism and speciesism.
Ana Luna continues to respond to the arguments of speciesism, in this case to the argument that humans have dignity and the rest of the animals do not.
But what is dignity?
Why do only humans have dignity?
Has that argument been used before in other forms of discrimination?
What does the word “radical” mean?
Is it negative to be radical against a form of discrimination?
Is it necessary to eat animal products to be healthy?
Is feeling the same as interacting?
Which living things feel?
If animals eat each other in nature, why can’t we do the same?
Would you eat animals if you were on a desert island?
What determines the value of a life?
Are the lives of a human, a fish, or a dog worth the same?
Why don’t vegans eat eggs?
Why is there only one rooster in a henhouse?
Aimed at teenagers and with an educational purpose, the book The Voice of Animals invites reflection through critical thinking on different issues of animal ethics that arise when we think about the lives of animals, both in freedom and in captivity.

Aula Animal is an anti-speciesist educational project that began its activity in 2011. After more than a decade of activism, a small group of secondary school teachers started this project with the aim of introducing education based on respect for animals in schools and institutes..
Throughout these years our activities have reached hundreds of students and teachers in Spain and Latin America, and we have been fortunate to collaborate and work together with other teachers interested in animal issues, as well as with other animal welfare organizations..
Aula Animal is a non-profit organization based in Spain. However, we also conduct online activities, primarily talks and reading workshops on “The Voice of Animals” for students ranging from age 10 to university level. Please feel free to contact us if you are interested in us organizing any of your activities..
In our educational activities we use three fundamental pillars:
Our website features educational videos on how to approach issues related to animal ethics at different school levels..
In addition, we regularly organize online teacher training workshops, as well as in-person sessions and courses. If you would like to receive information about our activities, please subscribe to our mailing list.
At Aula Animal, it will be a pleasure to support you and share our resources and experience so that more and more people become involved in education based on respect for animals..
All resources are completely free and freely available; most are my own, and others have been contributed selflessly by other anti-speciesist educators. The book “The Voice of the Animals”It can be downloaded for free..
We also conduct awareness workshops with other organizations interested in animal welfare and anti-speciesism. Over the years, we have carried out activities in numerous associations, including prisons, family groups, private companies, and a variety of other organizations..
