We are excited to announce that the Animal Ethics website is now available in Arabic. This marks an important milestone in our mission to spread ideas that can help all animals. With Arabic being the 5th most spoken language in the world, this effectively opens it up to over 300 million more people who can have access to this important information.

The suffering of animals is a global issue, so it is crucial that resources like ours can be accessed by diverse audiences worldwide.

Animal Ethics provides realistic perspectives on the lives animals lead, especially wild animals, and how we can help them. Covering topics from speciesism to wild animal suffering, our website curates scientific and philosophical information to further the animal protection movement. Our aim is to inspire academics, students, and concerned citizens to join us in reducing animal suffering, through their careers or outside of them.

Making content accessible across languages is key to this goal. Because of this,  our website is available in 12 languages, including English, Spanish, Portuguese, Hindi, Telugu, Chinese, German, French, Italian, Polish, Romanian and now Arabic.  If we add up the pages and posts in all languages, we now have more than 1900 publications online!

We encourage everyone to learn as much as possible about issues related to wild animal suffering, so we’ll be able to discuss important future issues and support public and private initiatives to make wild animals’ lives better. With a long-term perspective, we hope to gradually shift attitudes on how animals are viewed and treated so that societies and institutions will include the wellbeing of all sentient beings in their plans and priorities. This includes crucial global priorities.

Every language added gives more momentum to the animal advocacy movement. We aim to reduce suffering not just for animals alive today, but also the many generations to come. More translations mean these ideas will continue spreading across cultures, borders, and generations.

Achieving this milestone would not be possible without dedicated volunteers generously offering translation support. We are deeply grateful for their efforts in helping expand our message.

Every contribution brings us closer to a more livable world for all animals.

If you are able to volunteer translating content into any of the languages our in which our website is available, or into  Korean, Russian, Turkish, please contact us at translations@animal-ethics.org.

Following confirmation of a HPAI outbreak at a Maricopa County facility affecting 2.3 million egg-laying hens, Animal Outlook's investigator travelled to Arizona to record depopulation efforts at Hickman's Eggs in Tonopah. The footage shows piles of dead birds being poured into dump trucks by wheel loaders scooping out huge barns and workers without personal protective equipment covering their eyes, face, and mouth. Animal Outlook's footage was picked up by AZ Family (the local CBS affiliate) and local news source InMaricopaCounty. Thanks to Dr. Crystal Heath of Our Honor for her expert guidance.  A recent, relatively unnoticed, change to USDA indemnity payments increases compensation to producers from $7 to nearly $17 per bird. Hickman's Eggs--the largest Egg producer in the Southwest and notorious user of prison labor--stands to earn more than $38 million from this mass killing. A fourth outbreak at a Hickman's facility in less than a year was reported in the same week, bring the total number of birds killed by Hickman's due to bird flu to 4.9 million in the past year. With the taxpayer burden likely to be around $72 million.  Around two thirds of egg-laying hens affected by bird flu in the US are killed using VSD+. Animal Outlook's investigator filmed propane trucks exiting the Tonopah facility, suggesting that propane was being delivered for heaters.  https://animaloutlook.org/investigations/hickmans-eggs-investigation/
