This work aims to analyse the possibility of greater realisation of animal rights being analysed from an ecofeminist perspective in Brazilian law, in order to identify how it would be possible to achieve this fact, exposing the origin of the domination of animals by man, putting on the agenda how animals are treated and what would be the benefits for humanity in establishing animals as subjects of rights. In this vein, this research analyses the possibility of a paradigm shift from anthropocentrism to ecocentrism, as well as understanding the interaction and influence of ecofeminism to help implement animal rights effectively in Brazil, enabling a reflection for a future change in ethical stance, thus concluding that ecofeminism brings with it a new possibility of harmonisation in the lives of animals, making the defence of animals more discussed and seen from another angle than the traditional one because women in ecofeminism bring such a possibility.
