AB - This study examines a bioethical aspects of stamping out the livestock focused on communal life theory that happens when a livestock epidemic occurs. Since 2010, there have been frequent outbreaks of foot-and-mouth disease and avian influenza every year, and the stamping out livestock has been repeated. In this process, livestock are not regarded as life at all. In case of livestock epidemic, the disease prevention authorities are carrying out a pest control policy such as pointing out virus as a cause and tracking migratory birds. This is the result of reducing the plague to viruses. In many cases, viruses and organisms form a symbiotic relationship through long evolutionary times. An infectious disease occurs when the relationship is damaged. However, rather than looking at the environment causing the damage to the relationship, the inspectors have defined the virus as a cause and are pursuing a stamping out policy. This study reveals that organisms and viruses are communal life, and the infection of viruses is a natural phenomenon. Therefore, the policy to stamping out livestock is against life. Therefore, the current stamping out policy should be avoided and the cause of the damage of the relationship between viruses and organisms should be identified and measures should be taken accordingly. The primary cause is the factory-style dense farming. Even if livestock are raised as economic animals, they should be raised in an environment that is respected as life and minimized suffering.
