is the global animal welfare organisation for animals under direct human influence, which reveals suffering, rescues animals in need and protects them. Our vision is a world where humans treat animals with respect, empathy and understanding.
Our Focus
We work to ensure that companion animals, farm animals and wild animals are legally protected from exploitation and abuse.
We collaborate with policy makers and stakeholders in the EU to prevent illegal trade and other cruel commercial activities in both pets and wildlife, as well as to improve the lives of farm animals suffering in intensive farming systems and live transport.
Current soil health conditions provide another reason for the need to change our animal farming systems. Better animal welfare conditions can help in stopping land degradation.
After months of negotiations between farmers, environmental organisations, political parties and the government, on 18th November, Denmark presented its Green Tripartite Agreement.
FOUR PAWS urges the EU Parliament and the Council to revise the legislation on the protection of animals during transport and end needless animal suffering
