In doctoral degree the connection between the human ethical stance towards animals and those basic Frankl' s values that leads towards inventing life meaning as one of the key factors in avoiding human existential vacuum is discussed. The model of human ethical stance towards animals as opposite to human's irresponsible behaviour towards them was constructed, including individual concepts, perspectives, and approaches, which reflect interweaved and content consistent, coherent whole of human responsible, respectful, and humane behaviours towards them. Those we summarized under creative values, attitudinal values and experiential values and use them as a base to form our key finding; it is possible to find human life meaning through responsible behaviours towards animals and thereby counteract the existential vacuum.
