World Society for the Protection of Animals

Paul recently lent his support to the WSPA's Animals Matter Campaign, calling for governments of the world to support a Universal Declaration on Animal Welfare and acknowledge that animals can suffer and feel pain. This year WSPA is highlighting the cruelty of Norway's whale hunt. Here are Paul’s thoughts on the matter: "It's time to end the cruel slaughter of whales and leave these magnificent creatures alone. The best future for our relationship with whales is watching, not hunting. In the 21st century how can we even contemplate killing whales or any animal in such barbaric ways? Governments should act on their responsibilities and protect these beautiful creatures."[
