In his article "What's Wrong with Rex? Hegel on Animal Defect and Individuality" Rand argues that for Hegel, animals can not be normatively evaluated on the basis of species-specific standards. This position has been criticized by Nicolás García Mills, whom along with Mark Alznauer argues that animals are in fact normatively evaluable for Hegel.^[3][4]
