Protecting animals in disasters

We act quickly and work round-the-clock saving animals in disaster-stricken communities and the livelihoods of people who depend on them. Our teams are highly trained and implement innovative techniques in emergency situations. They save lives and relieve suffering, giving people the hope they need to plan futures for themselves and their animals.

And when the disaster is over, we don’t just say goodbye. We stay and work wherever we are needed, helping governments, humanitarian organisations and local people prepare to protect animals if disaster threatens again.

And we know what we are doing will make things better… This gives us momentum. I also always feel that I’m not working alone.

Protecting animals in communities

Every day, in cities, towns and villages around the world, millions of dogs endure persecution and cruel deaths very often because of people’s fear of rabies. We are working to end such appalling suffering.

In 2014 our vaccination drives, education projects and collaboration with communities and governments helped to end inhumane culling and improved the lives of dogs and people in seven countries.

Their aim is to make the country rabies-free by 2030. when all three children in one family had been tragically killed by rabies.

Protecting animals in the wild

Millions of wild animals worldwide are enduring horrendous cruelty, painful deaths and exploitation. This is mostly to meet the demands of people who want them for their body parts, to keep as pets and to watch, use and abuse for entertainment.

We are shining a light on their suffering, moving people, governments and international organisations to protect our planet’s precious and keep animals in the wild where they belong.

Her favourite thing is the large pool filled with fresh water – she likes to take regular baths. And we’re also sure that she’s invented her own game of hide and seek that she plays with the other bears.”

22 23 Protection matters: Assessing the welfare of cattle on El Hatico farm, Colombia.

Protecting animals in farming

Billions of animals reared for our food each year are forced to endure cramped and dismal conditions that cause them lifelong stress and suffering. But we are helping governments, industry and consumers find better and kinder ways to feed the world. This is through the development and support of viable, sustainable animal and environment-friendly ways of farming. We provide the technical expertise needed to make their widespread adoption possible.

24 25 “Some farmers unfortunately usually have a very short-term view. They only ever think about what they can take from the earth, Focus on... not about what they should give back… The idea of sustainable agricultural production is to preserve and, if possible, increase natural resources so that future generations have better conditions Family farming to work the land. It should be a wake-up call when we see resources being exploited, wasted and eroded. So we must embrace change and think about the future.” for the future Juan José Molina Echeverry, El Hatico

Twenty-eight-year-old Juan José Molina Echeverry is The benefits of the silvopastoral system to farmers include high passionate about El Hatico, his family’s pioneering productivity – sometimes double the milk yield of traditional ‘silvopastoral’ dairy farming project in the Cauca River farms – plus animals that are easier to manage and handle.

Under silvopastoral systems, cattle are also creates a farming environment that will serve animals and typically provided with rich and varied grasses, shrubs people well for generations to come, says Juan José. and trees to feed on and for shade. Lesley Lambert, our head of policy for food and farming, is We have worked closely with Juan José and other delighted that our assessment project has revealed such silvopastoral farmers. Together we assessed the welfare positive results for both farmers and animals. of animals kept in this way compared with those kept on traditional South American open grazing areas. “When switching to new systems farmers inevitably worry about costs and whether production will fall. The research This assessment was undertaken in partnership with undertaken as part of the project is showing that silvopastoral Colombia’s Cattle Ranching Federation (FEDEGAN), systems are highly productive and cost effective. From an the Colombia-based Centre for Research on Sustainable animal welfare point of view, the cattle we assessed were Farming Systems (CIPAV) and the global agricultural healthy, with good body condition and could exhibit important assessment network, agri benchmark. natural behaviours. It’s a win-win farming model for people and cattle.” On El Hatico, 500 animals – mostly Colombian Lucerne cattle – happily wander through and graze on waving grasses, plants and trees that were first planted in the 1960s and 70s.

Working with nature “The trees, grasses and animals all interact with each other… It’s a system that puts nature to work for a common goal,” explains Juan José.

The interaction means a host of animal welfare benefits including fewer insect and tick-borne diseases infecting cattle than in other systems.

Other positives for cattle include: lots of natural shade and shelter; choosing what they want to eat and when, and freedom to socialise how and when they want.

We formalised partnerships with international food producers BRF in Brazil and Thailand’s Betagro Group in 2014.

BRF is one of the world’s largest producers of pigs and poultry with sales in more than 110 countries. It produces more than a billion broiler chickens annually, almost 10 million pigs, and has committed to work with us to move its sows to high welfare group housing.

“The opportunity to partner leading companies provides a beacon for change for farm animals throughout the world. Companies like Nestlé, Betagro and BRF are hugely influential; where they lead, others follow,” says Martin Cooke.
