Wildlife, wellbeing and what we eat

Dear Friend,

From the ways we experience and interact with wildlife to how we get our protein, our everyday lives are more connected to animals than we may realize. This month, get a fresh perspective on wildlife, animal welfare and how we can help create a better world for all species.

Ever wonder why an animal would risk everything to escape captivity?

An animal trying to escape can be a powerful sign that something isn’t right. Stress, frustration and being unable to behave naturally can all drive an animal to search for a way out. But what can these desperate attempts tell us about how animals experience captivity and what they truly need to thrive?

Discover what’s behind these behaviours and see captivity from the animal’s point of view.

Can you really get enough protein without eating more meat?

It’s a common misconception that you need to eat meat to get enough protein. But the truth is, plants can provide plenty of the protein your body needs, and you might be surprised by just how many options you have. Beans, lentils, tofu and whole grains are all rich sources of protein, and they can help bring more variety to your meals.

Whether you’re already eating more plant-based foods or just curious about where to start, discover protein-rich plant foods, easy combinations and simple ways to get more protein from plants.

How do you know if a wildlife experience is truly animal-friendly?

Not every wildlife experience is as animal-friendly as it seems. The way we observe, interact with and support wildlife can have a real impact on their wellbeing, and knowing what to look for can help us make more responsible decisions when encountering animals.
