OTHER NEWS
To focus on what
animals will face
in the future, we've
supercharged the way
people think about them. To get things
started, we launched an interactive game
Animal Futures. Our immersive game
imagines five alternative realities for
animals in 2050.
The game prompts players to consider the
impact of our attitudes and behaviours on
animals, humans and the world we all share
- now and in the future.
We also started Animal Futures: The Big
Conversation at the start of 2025. This asks
everyone across England and Wales to
speak up for animals on our online platform,
with four broad topics: how we use animals;
animals and technology; farmed animals
and food; and animals in the wild.
And our brilliant Animal Futures podcast,
hosted by Kate Quilton, takes a deep dive
into some of the big questions about the
future of animal welfare.
