Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about.

People, animals and wildlife are all trying to survive.

Be kind.
Always.

Have a heart for our hard-pressed fellow species be they domestic, farmed or wild, during these record breaking temperatures and dangerous levels of heat
It will add stress to animals, plants & insects
Pls put out water, food and shade for little ones and don’t ever travel or leave animals in cars or walk animal companions in the heat of the day ☀️ 🙏

Millions of animals are cruelly exported overseas each year.

We’ve written to the @WOAH, urging them to put animal welfare at the heart of the upcoming revision of live transport guidelines & to #BanLiveExports.

Defra breached law when it let farmers use bee-killing pesticide, watchdog says
@guardian

“We must ban all pesticides of this kind and give farmers the urgent support they need to move away from these chemicals and towards nature-friendly and regenerative farming methods”

They suffer from lesions, lameness, UTIs, and more. They're unable to interact naturally with their piglets. They can barely stand up or sit down properly.

Millions of sows spend around half of every year this way in the EU... trapped in a miserable cage. 🐖⛓️

Glue trap ban comes into full force in Scotland @SkyNews

“The traps - which are typically trays coated with a sticky adhesive - do not immediately kill an animal, but those stuck in them can suffer severe and often fatal injuries”
Great news, well done to all involved and to #Scotland

Sick…some traditions stick and some should be evolved from. This a vile practice many Icelanders are ashamed of… and rightly so.

Why fireworks can be a death sentence for wildlife @NatGeo
From bats to birds, research suggests fireworks may lead to serious injury or death
As 4th July approaches in the US, questions are rightly being asked ‘how can we ever justify the distress and death associated with noisy fireworks?’

Global boom in livestock farming since 2006 is piling pressure on nature, report finds @fionaharvey
Wildlife is at risk to say nothing of the abuse of yet more #Factoryfarmed animals 

“There’s been a huge increase. About 33 billion livestock mammals and poultry have been added globally in 20 years: there were 94.9 billion farmed animals – the number slaughtered or used for milk or eggs – in 2023, up from 61.8 billion in 2006”

We know human health, animal health, and the health of our environment are connected. But what does that mean in practice?

Join our webinar with @philip_ciwf & @FAO on how embedding #OneHealth policy in livestock farming benefits us all: https://t.co/BHyvv3nRYd

HONESTY IN THE SUPERMARKET AISLE: WHAT’S REALLY BEHIND THE FIGHT OVER FOOD LABELLING?
Consumers deserve to know whether the chicken, pork or dairy product they are buying comes from animals reared outdoors or confined indoors
They deserve labels that reflect reality, not marketing imagery of rolling green fields that may bear little relation to how those sentient animals lived

Extreme breeding continues to cause avoidable suffering for millions of companion animals across Europe. 💔

Our 🆕 updated mapping shows where countries are taking action, where gaps remain & how the new EU rules on cats & dogs can help drive further progress.

'Frankenchickens': The debate about welfare and sustainability @BBCNews
Chicken is big business with an estimated billion birds reared for food every year in UK
"Frankenchickens" are "bred to grow so fast that their bodies simply can't keep up... They're often forced to lie in their own poo as a result because their legs are so painful".
Yet this fast-growing breed is considered the industry standard
