Plus, it seeks to develop and encourage not only the experts but also parts of people's bodies and minds as the subject of study.
[2][3][4][5] An alternative definition of the term bioculture is all the practical aspects of the use of living things in culture, including agriculture, production of food and clothing, forestry, animal breeding and training, the pet trade, use of living things in science, zoos and aquariums, animal sports, and the raising of game for sport hunting.
Ethics in Bioculture come into question especially in situations, where the animals and plants are in artificially created environments that are completely controlled by human.
For example, agricultural farming for food and clothing; breeding, raising, and then slaughtering animals for food and clothing; growing forests to eventually cut them for wood; or breeding animals and plants and experimenting on them in laboratories.
For example, developing plant nurseries to harvest flowers; building and maintaining zoos, aquariums for entertainment; breeding animals for sports like horse riding or bull fighting; pet trade; or breeding birds or animals in sporting/hunting grounds and fishes in lakes for game fishing.
Paul Taylor asks in his book on the fairness of hurting these animals and plants for our benefit or fun, just because we don't have inherent love and affection towards them.
The question then arises as to how this translate this ethical duty and responsibility to the field of Bioculture for plants and animals.
