Case:

Info Slide: For the sake of this debate, utilitarian arguments for animal welfare appeal to the innate capacity of all creatures to feel and respond to pain and pleasure. Rationalist arguments for animal welfare, on the other hand, extend moral rights to animals on the basis of cognitive properties (e.g. to form and act on preferences, complex emotions such as grief, problem-solving, communication, etc).

Motion: This house believes that animal rights groups should primarily adopt a utilitarian conception of animal welfare over a rationalist conception of animal welfare
