animal law volunteer opportunity

I received the following information that some of you may want to check out. Also, Bruce Wagman is one of the most well-respected animal law attorneys in the entire country. He has a written an animal law textbook and was the key-note speaker here at Mitchell at the '07 animal law conference.


Dear SALDF Leaders:

ALDF is looking for students to research discrete areas of law in different countries. The results will be used for a project collecting illustrations and examples of laws around the world, for a book that will be published looking at the ways different countries and cultures approach animal law. Each assignment will probably require 5-15 hours of work with a written summary of the research. Examples of assignments include research into the cruelty laws in various countries, constitutional provisions protecting animals, and different laws governing research on animals.

If you would like to assist ALDF with this project, please contact Bruce Wagman, ALDF’s Chief Outside Litigation Counsel, at bwagman@schiffhardin.com.
