As B.J. Callicott once pointed out, there are possibly fundamental conflicts between human-centered ethics, animal liberationists'ethics, and ecocentric environmental ethics. I'd like to argue here that animal liberationists'(P. Shinger's) or animal rights theorists' (T. Regan's) claims are mistaken in overstressing animals' pain or their abilitities like humans, and so their criticism of traditional ethics as 'speciesism'is not persuasive. But this doesn't mean that we may treat animals as having merely instrumental value. We should admit that animals have their own interest. So, we need to consider some priority principles between human interests and animal interests. In particular, it is between human non-basic interests and animal basic interests that difficult problems occur. In this case, we cannot solve these problems merely by reffering one monistic principle that animals basic interests always have priority over human non-basic interests. We should consider them from a historical and pluralistic point of view including environmental concerns.
