The OIE, as the World Organisation for Animal Health, is proud to have received a unanimous mandate from its 166 member countries to become the leading international organisation in the field of animal welfare. How has this situation come about? The OIE was created in 1924, thus before the United Nations Organisation, by 28 countries. These countries were seeking international cooperation to try to bring an end to the outbreaks of serious diseases that were ravaging their livestock. They wanted a mutual undertaking whereby infected countries would inform the others in the event of an animal health emergency so that they could take protective action. They also wanted information on the most effective methods to combat these devastating animal diseases. Today, these objectives of providing sanitary and scientific in- formation in the veterinary field still feature among our organisation’s priority missions, in terms of diseases affecting animals alone and also those transmissible to humans. In 1994, the agreements that led to the creation of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) made specific provisions for the management of sanitary and phytosanitary problems (SPS agree- ment) relating to the risks posed by commodities in international trade. At that time, a consen- sus was reached that member countries’ own legislation to protect against the introduction of pathogens should be science-based and avoid imposing unjustified sanitary barriers as a hidden form of trade protection. The OIE’s standards, guidelines and recommendations were then des- ignated as the international reference in the field of animal diseases and zoonoses. The OIE was chosen notably due to the fact that its standards are exclusively science-based. As the implementation of these standards can pose a problem for developing countries, the OIE acts out of solidarity with them by supporting the efforts they have made in animal disease surveillance and control aimed at reducing poverty, improving food safety and gaining access to international markets, from which the majority of them are currently excluded, notably for sanitary reasons. Developed countries continue to suffer occasional animal disease outbreaks, most commonly caused by the accidental introduction of pathogens, a phenomenon widely linked to the global- isation of trade. Nevertheless, the majority of the most serious animal diseases spread primari- ly in developing countries. Diseases are a major and persistent factor in animal suffering and combating them worldwide must be a priority for all those seeking to improve animal welfare. It was primarily with this in mind that our member countries sought to extend the OIE’s mandate to include animal welfare, even though this field is not specifically covered by the WTO agreements. Among the OIE’s other mandates are, for example, wildlife diseases and their links with dis- eases in other animals and with human diseases. Some emerging zoonoses are indeed linked to wild animals and the challenge facing us in this field is to fully understand these phenomena so as to combat them more effectively and preserve wildlife. Our mandates also include food safety, the OIE working closely with the Codex Alimentarius Commission to develop standards relating to the prevention of hazards during the production VIII Global conference on animal welfare: an OIE initiative and transport of food animals, so as to avoid risks to consumers. This is also a new field for the OIE and in due course we shall also have to examine whether inappropriate production or transport conditions can subsequently affect the safety of food products of animal origin. Other activities carried out by the OIE may also have a direct or indirect effect on animal wel- fare. The OIE codes, which contain standards on animal health and conditions governing interna- tional trade in animals and animal products, also include model sanitary certificates intended to accompany animals or animal products. These certificates are issued by the

CONFERENCE ROOM 312 HOUSE BILL NO. 1281 RELATING TO ANIMAL CRUELTY Chairperson Creagan and Members of the Committee: Thank you for the opportunity to present testimony on House Bill 1281. This bill proposes to criminalize and economically penalize livestock and poultry producers for various standard livestock and poultry production methods. The Department of Agriculture opposes this bill due to the negative impacts on local livestock producers. The Department supports prohibiting the slaughter of dogs and cats for any reason and believes regulations already exist which prohibits this. The proposed bill is inappropriately placed in Chapter 145, entitled Regulation of Farm Produce. Thank you for the opportunity to testify on this measure. I3 Testimony by Ashley Welgan of the Humane Society of the United States In support of House Bill 1281 Presented to the Committee on Agriculture, Hawaii House of Representatives February 8, 2019 Thank you, Representatives, for hearing my testimony today. The Humane Society of the United States, on behalf of our thousands of supporters across Hawaii, thanks Representatives Lee, Mizuno, Saiki, and Wildberger for introducing HB 1281. We wholeheartedly support the passage of this measure, which would explicitly prohibit the sale of dog and cat meat while creating modest protections for farm animals.

  • A Modest Proposal
    PUBLIC AFFAIRS QUARTERLY Volume 18, Number 1, January 2004 A MODEST PROPOSAL Richard Hanley eter Singer does not think that eating meat is wrong in and of itself. PThe case he makes in Practical Ethics against the use of non-human animals for food consists of two connected arguments.1 It will be con- venient to call them the Suffering Argument and the Killing Argument. The Suffering Argument is primarily an argument against factory farm- ing—the mass production of meat and animal products as it occurs in developed nations at least—and is well expressed by paraphrasing an explicit argument Singer gives (230–231) concerning absolute poverty: S1. If we can prevent something bad from happening without sacrific- ing anything of comparable moral significance, we ought to do it. S2. Animal suffering is bad. S3. We can prevent most of the animal suffering produced by factory farming without sacrificing anything of comparable moral significance. C. We ought to prevent most of the animal suffering produced by factory farming. If the conclusion of the Suffering Argument is granted outright,2 then there is still some work to do to mount an argument for vegetarianism. Assume that the market for animal products other than meat—leather, for in- stance—could not sustain factory farming by itself. Global vegetarianism would then be an effective means of preventing all the animal suffering involved in factory farming, since presumably factory farming would cease to exist without a market for its products. But it might reasonably be ob- jected that other global strategies short of vegetarianism would do at least as well.

  • Our Full Report
    As we look back over the four years since we announced the Perdue Commitments to Animal Care, it has been a journey of listening, learning and evolving. The Perdue Commitments to Animal Care was shaped with input from diverse stakeholders – including some of our harshest critics – and we continue to seek their input. We learn from a wide range of perspectives, whether they be farmers, our associates, advocates, customers or consumers, in formal and informal ways. Cumulatively this has resulted in 65 initiatives designed to address one of the Five Freedoms or one of the other three pillars of our program. And perhaps more importantly, these initiatives have moved from studies or intentions to programs and best practices that are now embedded in how we do business every day. We’re proud of our progress and eager to continue our journey. The following pages report on the most recent and core ongoing initiatives as well as our future goals. Highlights of our recent progress include: • Expanding the number of farms with free-range, outdoor access • Testing the feasibility and benefits of on-farm hatching to improve early chick care • Collaborating on animal welfare research with Mercy for Animals • Conducting our second farmer contest to tap into their experience and expertise in raising chickens • Opening our third Poultry Learning Center, viewing farms which offer a transparent, interactive experience to learn about poultry farming and proper animal care • Holding our fourth Animal Care Summit, bringing together animal care experts and advocates, customers, farmers, and our leadership, in July 2019. Our next summit will be held in October 2020.

  • Identifying and Developing Capacity for Veterinarians to Address Animal Ethics Issues
    IDENTIFYING AND DEVELOPING CAPACITY FOR VETERINARIANS TO ADDRESS ANIMAL ETHICS ISSUES Joy Verrinder BA DipT MBA MA (Professional Ethics & Governance) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2016 School of Veterinary Medicine Abstract Animal ethics is a growing community concern requiring effective responses from professionals in animal-related fields such as veterinary and animal science. Limited research indicates that veterinarians regularly face ethical dilemmas in relation to animal ethics issues, causing moral distress. However, while animal ethics teaching in veterinary and other animal science courses is growing internationally, it is still a relatively new discipline with no common approach or competencies for developing ethical behaviour toward animals. This thesis is that animal ethics education should be based on a scientific approach to morality, building on existing scientific approaches to morality and moral behaviour in philosophy, neurobiology, evolutionary biology and moral psychology to identify and develop the capacity for veterinarians and others in animal-related fields to address animal ethics issues. It includes six studies with a particular focus on quantitative methodologies to measure moral judgment and moral sensitivity, two of four previously identified components of moral behaviour. Based on a well-validated test of moral judgment on human ethics issues, the first study involved development of the Veterinary Defining Issues Test (VetDIT) to identify preferred levels of moral reasoning on animal ethics issues using three veterinary-related issues. Using this test, students of veterinary medicine, animal science and veterinary technology, at different stages of their programs in one Australian university, showed similar preferences for three types of moral reasoning i.e.
