This document discusses whether animal activism that breaks the law, termed "animal terrorism", can ever be considered virtuous. It analyzes an example of two activists, Lang and Johnson, who released 2000 mink from a fur farm in 2014. Using a virtue ethics framework, the document analyzes whether their actions demonstrated virtuous traits or not. It concludes that virtue ethics is a developmental approach rather than providing simple labels of actions as good or bad, and that views on civil disobedience often change over time as social movements are seen differently by future generations.
