🦁 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.

🦦 Sadly, many otter species are under threat due to the illegal wildlife trade. Life in captivity is no substitute for the wild. Help make a difference: don't share social videos of pet otters and avoid cruel venues such as otter cafes. #WorldOtterDay

Good news! Norway plans to phase out fast-growing chicken breeds by 2027. These so called “frankenchickens” struggle to support their own bodyweight and suffer from very painful conditions. We urge the UK government to follow Norway’s example and urgently ban these breeds too.

Hugging a wild animal may seem harmless but one photo for you is a lifetime of trauma and captivity for them. Be vigilant to animal exploitation and avoid cruel venues: if you are able to hug or hold a wild animal, the chances are it has suffered some kind of cruelty. #NationalHuggingDay

We’re delighted the fur ban has entered Polish law 👏 The fur industry is cruel and outdated, confining millions of wild animals in tiny cages for an unnecessary product. Sadly, it remains legal in other countries, which export and sell fur products into the UK.

It’s incredibly disappointing the UK government has opted out of the Tropical Forests Forever Facility (TFFF). They should be wholeheartedly sponsoring the fund, not swerving from responsibility to the future of the Amazon and threatened tropical forests. We urge them to reconsider this decision.
