• iThis book explores how tourism co-opts, constructs, and distorts animal identities. In the context of ever-increasing mobility, the continued loss of biodiversity, and climate change, the ethics of eating animals will continue to be a critical topic for consideration. This book explores a range of ethical issues associated with the production and consumption of animal foods for tourism. It highlights the different ways in which animals are valued and utilised within different cultural and economic contexts. The heritage and current practices of eating animals in tourism are illustrated using a variety of perspectives and international case studies. Contributors explore how tourism and eating animals fuel one another, making it even more imperative for individuals and collective institutions to define and perhaps (re)consider their ethical positions. This is a timely contribution that will appeal to scholars, students and advocates interested in animal studies, food, tourism, geography, environmental studies, sociology, law and the political sciences.ii iii
