Wild Animal Welfare Committee

Welcome to the Wild Animal Welfare Committee (WAWC) channel.
The WAWC is an independent group providing an evidence base for evaluating, monitoring, assessing and improving decisions affecting the welfare of free-living wild animals in the UK
We highlight the importance and value of wild animals in general, and promote the welfare of the individual in particular.
We commission and publish independent reports on contemporary wild animal welfare issues of public and political concern.
We aim to reduce harm to wild animals and prevent suffering caused by human activity.
We work to promote the awareness and improvement of wild animal welfare.
We disseminate objective information on a range of wild animal welfare topics.
We engage with organisations that can contribute to our evidence base.
Join us here to see latest news and presentations from our events.
