I just watched a video about a lawyer fighting for the rights of animals - asking that they have limited rights as "persons" under the law. After I watched it, I did a little research into whether it is feasible for animals to be considered persons. Turns out, he is on to something. A "person" can in fact be a non-human. Take for instance, corporations. Corporations are non-human entities protected under the law as as person. I am going to dig a little deeper on this issue and explore what other research is out there on this topic. In the meantime, take a look at this engaging video.
