Adams entwickelte und verteidigte. Kheel war 1982 Mitgründerin der Organisation Feminists for Animal Rights.

Sie wurde an der Graduate Theological Union der University of California, Berkeley promoviert und hielt zuletzt eine Gastprofessur am Department of Environmental Science, Policy, and Management der selben Alma Mater.
