Key Facts

Welfare Considerations

Reaching 23,100 pages is a moment to reflect on both the scale of animal welfare knowledge now available here and the scale of the challenge that knowledge addresses. Billions of farmed animals experience welfare problems that evidence-based practice could prevent or reduce. Hundreds of millions of wild animals experience human-caused suffering that better policy could address. Millions of companion animals live in conditions below what their welfare needs require. The knowledge assembled here cannot by itself change these realities — but it can inform the decisions, advocacy, and practices of the people and organizations working to improve them. Each page is an investment in the information ecosystem that enables better welfare outcomes for individual animals.
