These facts remind us that by protecting habitats, we're protecting families like these 🧡

[World Animal Protection UK @MoveTheWorldUK]

🦁 In lion prides, dominant males defend their group, including cubs, from rival males. Some fathers also play with their cubs, building bonds and teaching them important social behaviours.

🐓 Chickens: Roosters are known to guard hens and chicks from predators, sounding alarm calls and physically defending them when needed.

🪸 Male seahorses give birth - after the female transfers her eggs into his pouch, the male incubates them, sometimes hundreds at a time, until they’re ready to be released into the ocean.

In the animal kingdom, fathers aren't always known for playing an active role but these guys are here to prove otherwise 👇 #FathersDay

Incredible wildlife experiences can be found much closer to home than you might think...can you guess where these common dolphins were filmed? 👀

Thank you to everyone for standing with us and supporting Baloo, please know we are doing all we can to help give him the life he deserves.

We will keep you updated on any further progress.

[World Animal Protection UK @MoveTheWorldUK]

Remember Baloo, the brown bear who has spent 25 years alone in a cage at a ski resort in Romania?

We have hopeful news to share 👇

[World Animal Protection UK @MoveTheWorldUK]

This is a really positive step and we remain in contact with Baloo's owner, with the aim of looking at improvements to the bear's well-being and possible next steps for his future.

📰🚨 The number of UK dairy farms keeping cows indoors year-round has more than doubled since 2015. As costs rise and milk prices stay low, farmers are being pushed towards industrial-scale production.

[World Animal Protection UK @MoveTheWorldUK]

Factory farming isn’t the future - it’s a failing system.

We need a food system that works for farmers, animals and the planet - not one that traps cows indoors and leaves farmers with no choice.

[World Animal Protection UK @MoveTheWorldUK]

You can help break the cycle by:
❌ Not engaging with harmful wildlife content online
⚠️ Reporting any cruel wildlife content
🚫 Avoiding captive venues
🦜 Not buying a parrot (or any other wild species) as a pet

Let's keep parrots wild and flying free.

[World Animal Protection UK @MoveTheWorldUK]

Parrots aren’t pets - they’re wild animals with complex needs that cannot be replicated in captivity.

In the wild, they fly miles every day, form deep social bonds, and live rich, stimulated lives.

In captivity, many suffer from stress, boredom, and psychological distress.

Happy World Otter Day! 🦦Otters are wild animals not pets. Sadly, “cute" otter videos are fuelling illegal poaching & breeding.

Please DON’T support this cruelty 🚫
❌ Don’t share videos of captive otters
❌ Don’t like or comment these videos
⚠️ Report them as animal cruelty
