Hak asasi hewan,juga dikenal sebagaikebebasan hewan,adalah ide bahwa hak-hak dasar hewan non-manusia harus dianggap sederajat sebagaimana hak-hak dasar manusia.[3]Para pendukung mendekati masalah ini dari posisi filosofis yang berbeda, mulai dari gerakanproteksionisyang dicetuskan filsufPeter Singer—dengan fokusutilitarianterhadap penderitaan dan konsekuensi, alih-alih konsep hak itu sendiri—sampai gerakanabolisionisyang dicetuskan profesor hukumGary Francione,yang menyatakan bahwa hewan hanya butuh satu hak, yaitu hak untuk tidak dijadikan benda atau properti. Meski ada berbagai macam pendekatan, mereka semua setuju bahwa hewan harus dipandang sebagaiorangnon-manusia dan anggota komunitas moral, serta tidak digunakan sebagai makanan, pakaian, subjek penelitian, atau hiburan.[4]
