New work from Animal Ethics is drawing attention to the growing body of evidence on aquatic animal sentience. Seantience, a short documentary directed by Xiana Castro, brings together recent findings on the capacity to feel in both vertebrates and invertebrates.

Pet parasiticides are entering soils and waterways, harming the very ecosystems we depend on. Ministers must act on the evidence and reduce this chemical load on nature.

30th November marks Remembrance Day for Lost Species and we are remembering the Slender-billed Curlew.
We want to keep the name of the Slender-billed Curlew alive and hold it in our hearts as we learn from the loss.
This cannot happen again on our watch. 💔

You’ve seen the signs: ‘Trespassers Will Be Prosecuted’. They lie. In the UK ‘trespass’ is a civil offence, not a criminal one. You cannot face prosecution simply for being on someone’s land, off a designated Right of Way, open access land, or land where bylaws permit access, without permission.

The Chancellor's decision to cut energy bills by raiding the Warm Homes Plan isn't a genuine solution to fuel poverty; it's robbing Peter to pay Paul.
Ridiculous to prioritise short-term headlines at the expense of long-term delivery when costs could be funded by taxing wealth.
