@animalethics We are grateful to Seantience, Animal Ethics and the broader scientific community for advancing this important work. Let’s continue to build understanding, translate evidence into policy, support industry and improve outcomes for all aquatic animals. 🐟📊🌊

We’re pleased to highlight the “Sentience in Aquatic Animals” report from Seantience and @animalethics, a major synthesis of current evidence showing that many aquatic animals are not just biological entities.
