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.

🎆 Bonfire Night might be fun for us but for animals, it can be a frightening time. So whether it’s checking a bonfire for hidden wildlife or choosing quieter fireworks, small acts of care can make all the difference.⁣

Dertour Group’s decision to stop selling tickets to marine parks shows that travel giants can and should take a stand against dolphin and whale exploitation.

We're looking at you, TUI 👀 If Dertour can cut their ties with this cruel industry, why can’t you?

Did you know that stags often attach bracken and grass to their antlers to appear larger and more dominant to rival males during the rutting season?

If you live near deer or visit areas where they roam, you’re likely to see clashes at this time of year so be vigilant and always keep your distance!

You've heard of money laundering, but have you heard of "cattle laundering"? 🤔💲🐄

It's a real and destructive practice happening right now in the Amazon rainforest, as revealed by our new investigation:
JBS linked again to cattle from farm tied to Amazon deforestation
A new investigation finds JBS sourcing cattle from a farm linked to illegal deforestation in Brazil’s protected Amazon region.

We agree with the ASA ruling that the claims in Red Tractor's adverts were misleading.

Consumers deserve honesty and animals deserve better. There is no future for factory farming.

At Brodoclea Woodland Farm @futureforestco.bsky.social, the Mangalitza pigs are helping to improve soil health and encourage wildflowers to flourish.

2 years on. 0 animals protected.

It's time for the government to take action and bring the long-promised Animals (Low-Welfare Activities Abroad) Act into force.

Email your MP today, demanding they list the activities covered by the Act: buff.ly/wDOv5RQ

We are incredibly saddened by the loss of Dr Jane Goodall. 🤍
She was an amazing advocate who dedicated her life to protecting animals, and her pioneering work inspired all of us here at World Animal Protection. We are sure her legacy will live on for many generations to come.

No performances. No rides. No touching. No posing for pictures.

Being a responsible tourist means saying no to animal exploitation.

Wild bird feathers don’t belong on runways or in our wardrobes.

Thank you to Alesha Dixon, Gail Porter, Jenny Packham and
Lucy Tammam for taking a stand against using wild bird feathers in fashion and championing wildlife-free style.

Behind every fashion product that uses fur, feathers or skins from wild animals, there is suffering.

Feathers belong on birds, not on the catwalk.

While the British Fashion Council has made progress by banning wild animal furs and skins from London Fashion Week events, they still haven’t banned wild bird feathers. #LFW #LondonFashionWeek
