World Animal Day
RAISING THE STATUS OF ANIMALS TO IMPROVE WELFARE STANDARDS AROUND THE GLOBE
"World Animal Day unites the animal welfare movement, mobilising it into a global force to make the world a better place for all animals. Each one of us can make a difference – together we make change! Be part of something special."
2025 theme: Save Animals, Save the Planet!
This year’s theme reminds us of the connection between animal welfare and the health of our planet. From biodiversity loss and habitat destruction to industrial farming and pollution, the ways we treat animals have a direct impact on the environment – and vice versa.
The conservation of keystone species inadvertently leads to the preservation of diverse habitats around them, meaning that the safeguarding of animals such as tigers or wolves can actually lead to their corner of the Earth being protected from harm.
When we stand up against wildlife crime, fight against the cruelty of factory farming, and ensure the well-being of our beloved pets, we contribute to a more sustainable and compassionate world.
