Think of the wild life
- Be wary of animal attractions:
- Do thorough research on any attraction that involves animals. Only zoos and aquariums accredited by AZA and WAZA can organize experiences.
Domestic and farm animals:
- Domestic animals must have adequate shelter, care, food and water. Any situation that undermines their well-being should be addressed immediately.
Don’t feed wild animals:
- Responsible encounters with wild animals involve maintaining a safe and respectful distance from them, not chasing them, making as little noise as possible and leaving no residue.
The 5 Freedoms for animals:
- • Freedom from hunger and thirst
- • Freedom from discomfort
- • Freedom from pain, injury, or disease
- • Freedom to express normal behaviour
- • Freedom from fear and distress
Speak up!
- If you see animals being treated poorly, say something.
