Farmed Wild and Non-Domesticated Species
SPCA is concerned with the farming of wild and non-domesticated species because it is unlikely that farming systems can ensure the animals live a Good Life where they experience positive welfare and their physical, health, and behavioural needs are met.
SPCA advocates that no animals should be farmed unless their physical, health, and behavioural needs can be met in a practical farming situation. This requires a thorough understanding of the species and the creation of an appropriate and safe environment that meets all the animals’ welfare requirements.
SPCA advocates that wild and non-domesticated species must not be transported or handled within standard slaughterhouse systems.
