When millions of people were forced to flee their homes due to the invasion of Ukraine, they were unable to take their companion animals with them. An estimated one million dogs and cats were left homeless and living on the streets.
Dan Fine heard about this from a Ukrainian friend in Vancouver, and he was moved to help.
He teamed up with volunteers and animal charities to organise missions to vaccinate and sterilise these stray pets, with two important aims. To prevent more dogs and cats being born, and to prevent the spread of rabies from wild animals to these strays and then to humans.
It sounds like the plot of an action film but this is a race thatâs happening in real time.
Dan came on the podcast to talk about their documentary, War Tails; which explains the problem, but also the solution.

In this episode I was joined by Pei Feng Su, the founder of ACTAsia, to talk about her autobiography which has just been published.
Life of Pei: The Battle for Compassion takes us through Peiâs life from traumatic teenage years to her investigative work with the World Society for the Protection of Animals to the founding of ACTAsia, which aims to promote compassion for animals, people and the environment through visionary education programmes.
Pei has a unique perspective on both East and West and her book describes how animals, and indeed humans, are impacted by cultural norms in Asia that people in the West might not understand or appreciate.
ACTAsia have won many awards for their ground-breaking work and it was a real pleasure to talk to the author of a book that I enjoyed so much.

Julius Kirumira is a young vegan advocate from Uganda, who set up the organisation, Vegan Planet Africa, in 2019. They are committed to spreading awareness about the benefits of a plant-based lifestyle; not just as a dietary choice but as a conscious decision that aligns with their values of compassion, health and sustainability.
We talked about his dog, Max, who first inspired him to seek justice for animals; about the various projects that Vegan Planet Africa undertakes; about climate change and how his activism has helped him evolve and grow in his life.
Although he displays great strength and determination himself, he never hesitates to credit those around him who have helped him in his journey and he emphasizes that we are all united in this fight to save our planet and to help animals.
[Update: In this episode Julius talked about needing more funding to continue the Aqua Bloom Uganda Project. They received this funding and the project is continuing and expanding. With thanks to the Sanus Planet Foundation. https://sanusplanet.org/en/ ]

Dog Advocacy Ireland is a dedicated group that campaigns for meaningful change regarding dog welfare protection in Ireland.
There are thousands of dogs in puppy farms all around Ireland, to the extent that we are known as the puppy farm capital of Europe. These dogs lead utterly miserable lives while their pups are easily bought and then discarded after a few months or years.
It is left to the Irish animal rescue groups to deal with this excessive dog population and they are now under tremendous pressure. An overhaul of Irelandâs dog breeding legislation is crucial and I talked to Zara about this, as well as other DAI objectives.
If you love dogs then you'll want to hear about their work and maybe even get involved yourself!

Eurogroup for Animals brings together 98 animal protection organisations with the aim of providing a voice for animals in the European Parliament. Their work encompasses many areas of concern, such as, animal use in science, trade and animal welfare, aquatic animals, wildlife, equines, farm animals and much more.
In this episode I talked to their CEO, Reineke Hameleers, about four main topics; the current state of animal welfare legislation in Europe; obstacles to moving to animal-free science; food system transformation...and the Vote For Animals campaign which is currently underway on the run up to the European Elections in June 2024.
Animal advocacy and activism comes in different forms and it was fascinating and compelling to hear about this important work being done in the political arena, and how we can all take part in it.

Mark Randell retired from the police as a Detective Inspector and has since dedicated his life to preventing animal crime, abuse and exploitation through education and investigation.
His organisation â Hidden in Sight â helps law enforcement and animal groups investigate abuse, as well as training police around the world to integrate animal welfare protection into their work of safekeeping the community.
He is also campaigns manager for Nature Watch Foundation and their campaign â Protect Animals, Protect People â calls on those engaged in the public protection of humans to include animal welfare in their policies, strategies and legislation.
We had a really interesting and wide-ranging chat about the need to treat animal abuse and exploitation seriously â both for the sake of the animals and as a way of targeting those who would also harm humans.
And I got both a film and a book recommendation at the end - excellent!
Please note: we did not go into any graphic details of animal abuse in the discussion.

Welcome to the first native wild bee sanctuary on the planet, nestled in the south-east of Ireland.
I talk to Paul Handrick about the process of setting up a bee sanctuary, and what needs to be done to rescue the wild native bees of Ireland, and restore our wider environment in the process.
We talk about letting gardens go wild; about farmers caught in an unsustainable system and their desire to restore the countryside to former glories; checking if bee-friendly plants really are that friendly, and how a queen bee tells you to Buzz Off!

To raise awareness of the plight of the Galgos in Spain, Travis Patinaude decided he had to try and fake being a photographer in order to get into photography circles.
To his surprise, he actually had a talent for it, and is now an award-winning and much admired photographer, or as he puts it, a photoactivist.
The Galgos are used for hunting in Spain and due to overbreeding and commercialisation of this activity, it is estimated that anywhere from 50-100,000 dogs are killed every year when they are no longer useful for racing or hunting.
In 2013, a scared little white Galgo named Leena inspired Travis and his wife, Amanda, to start Love Hope Believe Galgo Adoption; and Stinkeye Photography followed soon after.
In this episode he shares his story as we talked about how dogs and a passion for justice can change your life.

Vets helping vets to help animals.
Traditional conservation groups working with endangered species can sometimes miss the fact that local vets might not have had much training in wildlife medicine.
That's where Wildlife Vets International comes in.
This dedicated group of people - including biologists and veterinarians - use the knowledge they've gained though their training and experience to help local vets and conservation groups in their efforts to save animals which are under threat from injury and disease.
From the Amur big cats to Mediterranean turtles to African Painted Dogs to Asian vultures - WVI aim to transfer their knowledge as widely as possible.

(And learn some 1920s dancing along the way).

This episode tells the story of the near-extinction of Asian vultures.
In the mid-nineties, millions of vultures began dying, all across the Asian subcontinent. Teams of scientists scrambled to find the cause and to save the remaining birds.
I talked to Chris Bowden of SAVE (Saving Asia's Vultures from Extinction) about this remarkable conservation effort - spanning decades - as well as the underappreciated value and beauty of these magnificent birds.

Never fear, Ethical Consumer are here to help. They are a cooperative that provide tools and resources that can help to answer that question and enable us all to make informed choices at the checkouts.
This means that we can direct our spending away from the the companies and organisations that exploit animals - and towards businesses that we'd like to see flourishing.
