The Importance of Animal Welfare

The welfare of animals is inextricably linked to our own well-being. According to the World Health Organization, animal welfare can have a positive impact on our physical, mental, and social health. Studies have shown that interacting with animals can reduce stress, boost mood, and provide emotional support.

Economic Benefits of Animal Welfare

The animal welfare industry generates billions of dollars in revenue annually, providing employment opportunities and contributing to the overall economy. In the United States alone, the pet industry is estimated to be worth over $100 billion.
