Animal News You Can Use: give wildlife a fighting chance!


In the wake of such senseless violence in Las Vegas this week, HSUS’s CEO Wayne Pacelle took to CNN to argue why Congress should bury the gun & hunting lobby’s latest reckless proposed handout. (Also, is it time to stop denigrating wolves with the “lone wolf” moniker? Actual lone wolves have their say, in one satirical yet poignant post.)

Want to give wildlife a fighting chance? A new World Wildlife Fund report finds that if you want more wildlife, eat less meat. And Guardian columnistGeorge Monbiot argues this week that with the proliferation of plant-based meat and clean meat (real meat, grown without animals), “the last argument for farming animals has now collapsed.”

Just how might such food biotech deliver animals from factory farms? I offer thoughts in this recent UC-Berkeley panel. And Stray Dog Capital CEO Lisa Feria tells how she’s helping make it happen in this new interview. May she succeed!
