Guess Europe's second most farmed land animal. Pigs? Cows? Ducks? It's rabbits — over 140 million are slaughtered annually, second only to chickens And most live in cages on industrial farms

Antibiotic resistance is the greatest health risk we all face. We are entering a new era where antibiotics - a miracle cure that our ancestors could only have dreamed of - no longer work because we have abused, overused and wasted them.
