Do Animals Dream?
Many of us often find ourselves wondering what our beloved animals may be dreaming of, when they twitch, snuffle, and even call in their sleep. Is our elderly lap-cat dreaming they are a ferocious lion prowling the savannah, is the dog we share our house with dreaming of the forests and streams we explored together…
Do Fish Feel Pain? And How Do We Know?
For many of us, the answer to the question “do fish feel pain?” might seem obvious. But this question sparked heated debate in the scientific community for years, until relatively recently. However, about 15 years ago, a series of highly sophisticated experiments were published, and according to most biologists the results settle the debate once…
Is this really “the world’s ugliest animal”?
In an internet poll, the blobfish was crowned “the world’s ugliest animal”.

The domino effect of the fight against fur around the world is now unmistakable. In recent weeks we have seen other EU countries ban fur farming. At the same time, more and more fashion chains around the world continue to announce an end to the use of fur in their products. There is no doubt that we are now making real progress in the fight for animals in the fur industry, and the clothing industry in general.
