‘An elephant is not a person’ and doesn’t enjoy same liberties, Colorado Supreme Court decides

By Jacob Factor | KDVR-TV Fox 31 News “An elephant is not a person” and is not afforded the same liberties as a person under the Colorado Constitution, the Colorado Supreme Court decided Tuesday.

The petitioner, the Nonhuman Rights Project, had argued the animals should be included and should be moved to a sanctuary “because they are autonomous and extraordinarily cognitively and socially complex beings,” according to the opinion announcement. Cheyenne Mountain Zoo officials in a statement claimed the Nonhuman Rights Project is “abusing court systems to fundraise” by publicizing “sensational” court cas...

Colorado lawmakers react to inauguration of President Donald Trump

By Heather Willard | KDVR-TV Fox 31 News Donald J.
