First of its kind new animal law program at U of T 'a long time coming'

Published Sep 12, 2025 at 6:00pm

The University of Toronto's law school is introducing a new program focused on animal law. 

"It does, a bit, feel like a long time coming," said Angela Fernandez, a law school professor and director of the new program. 

"We've kind of gotten to a point now with the resources and the projects ... we've tipped over now into something that really just deserves a full sort of name as a program," Fernandez said.
