If society deemed it to be correct that some animals or plants have intrinsic rights (such as rights to be left undisturbed of rights to be reasonably protected), then such rights can be protected by imposing them as constraints on what is legitimate human behavior. Do humans appear to regard whales as having intrinsic rights, and if so, what rights are these? In what ways, if at all, do humans defend these rights by imposing constraints on human behavior?
