Coverage of ivory trade rally was worthy

I wish to commend The Nation for covering the anti-ivory trade demonstration in Bangkok, and for putting that story on the front page (October 4).

Generally, the mainstream press fails to recognise the fact that animal rights are just as important as human rights. In some ways it’s more important, since if it wasn’t for the horrible way humans treat animals we wouldn’t need an animal rights movement in the first place.
