Speciesism is founded on the belief that the interests of one species are more important than those of others. This bias allows humans to justify different treatment of animals, and exploitative practices such as factory farming, large scale fishing, pet trade, cosmetic testing on animals, destruction of habitats, culling methods and more.

The disconnect from nature and disregard for the intrinsic value of animals and plants can result in deep-rooted societal issues too. Studies have indicated theories linking the disconnect to mental health issues, crime rates, violence, environmental degradation, eventually societal instability.
