In 2021, over 6 billion broiler chickens were slaughtered in the European Union. Conventional broiler chicken production causes an array of serious animal welfare problems, including crowded, barren living conditions, painful procedures, and physical and physiological problems associated with rapid growth. Also, the conventional slaughter process can cause distress, fear, and pain. On #InternationalChickenDay we are calling on the EU policymakers to improve farm animal welfare! 🇪🇺 Are you with us?

Addressing the pressing issue of stray animal overpopulation in the Philippines is crucial for public health and animal welfare. PETA and PAWS highlight the challenge: 12 million stray dogs and prolific feral cat colonies. This poses significant risks like rabies outbreaks. Controlling stray populations through neutering is vital. While individual adoptions are commendable, collective action is needed. Policymakers should prioritize this issue and strengthen animal protection laws. Collaboration between LGUs, animal welfare groups, and the private sector is key. Together, we can drive campaigns, promote adoption, and provide essential neutering services. Let's advocate for a society that respects and cares for its animals—a reflection of our national values. #AnimalWelfare #PublicHealth 🔗 https://lnkd.in/g57yNBpF

Did you know that our SPCA Certified Programme is all about ensuring animals have positive experiences – not just that they avoid negative ones.    You may have heard of the Five Freedoms of Animal Welfare which focus on avoiding negative states such as pain, distress and hunger but the Five Domains of Animal Welfare actually go further than this, and our standards for certification are based on these domains.   Rather than just avoiding negative experiences, the Five Domains model is all about securing positive experiences for animals, and ultimately ensuring a positive mental state.   Are you interested in reading more about the standards behind our #SPCACertified programme?

Understanding Animal Neglect: Legal Frameworks and Advocacy Animal neglect is an often-overlooked issue that carries significant legal and ethical consequences. As society becomes increasingly aware of animal welfare, the legal systems worldwide have begun to evolve, offering more robust protections for animals. This article delves into the intricate legal landscapes that define animal neglect, explores the enforcement mechanisms, and highlights the role of public advocacy in preventing such neglect. Legal Definitions and Frameworks of Animal Neglect At its core, animal neglect refers to the failure to provide adequate care, water, food, and shelter that an animal needs to live a pain-free and comfortable life. Different jurisdictions may have varying definitions, but the essence remains the same—ensuring humane treatment of all animals. In the United States, for instance, each state has laws against animal cruelty and neglect, outlining specific standards for care.

Today, we are launching a nationwide campaign to #ProtectTheBan on live animal export in Aotearoa. Aotearoa's ban on live animal export, implemented last year, was a powerful step forward for both animal welfare and our nation's global reputation. Yet, this progress is under threat, as the current Government seeks to overturn the ban. We strongly believe this would be a devastating decision for both the animals and New Zealand's values. Join us in urging everyone who shares our commitment to animal welfare to get behind this movement. Together, we can make a difference and protect the ban for good.
