World Animal Justice (WAJ) is dedicated to advance animal justice worldwide. As a unique group of international animal lawyers, we are working to End animal crimes & Defend animal rights. WAJ is the leading organization paving the way for "Zoocide" and "crimes against animality" to be fully recognized and forbidden in international law, such as "genocide" and "crimes against humanity" are already for humans, and "ecocide" and "crimes against environment" are progressing in this sense for the environment. WAJ aims to combat the major crimes against animals in priority, knowing the institutionalized crimes victimizing trillions of animals every year in factory farming. This is why WAJ is part of the END.IT coalition in asking for a Global Agreement to Ban Factory Farming. WAJ is also active to combat wildlife trafficking as a transnational organized crime, linked to other forms of criminality at the UNTOC and as part of the Alliance on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice.

💥5200 dogs in danger of death in Pakistan! WAJ Expert in Pakistan Altamush Saeed is fighting at Court to save them!
⚖️Altamush Saeed, an International Animal Rights expert from Pakistan at World Animal Justice, founder of Pakistan’s 1st Animal Law Firm, Environmental and Animal Rights Consultants Pakistan, is battling for the rights of stray animal rights once again, and this time in Rawalpindi, Pakistan Saeed is currently fighting a court case in Rawalpindi against the culling of 5200 stray dogs.🐕
💡As part of the case, he is pressing for the sterilization and vaccination of 5200 stray dogs instead of culling them. The District Council Rawalpindi is currently inviting sealed bids for this purpose, which is in accordance with the Dog Birth Control Policy.
🐾This should mark significant progress for the safety of stray dogs in Rawalpindi, which are often killed in mass numbers for the sake of population control and more. This would also come as another win for Altamush Saeed, who became the first-ever recipient of the Diversity Equity and Inclusion Spark Award at the Humane Society of the United States Expo 2024 earlier this year.
🙏Thank you Altamush for defending them and May the strength be with you to save them! We fully support your fight!
🔥Pakistan Court should chose the reason of compassion over inhumane mass killing!
🚨Please share widely around you to raise public awareness of this Court case and what is going on there against stray dogs!

📢Breaking: 10 Police Recommendations for Animal Protection Released! 🐾
On World Animal Day 2024, a groundbreaking event united leading police officers in animal protection to shape the future of law enforcement’s role in combating animal cruelty. Hosted by World Animal Justice and Les 4 Pattounes, the event featured top police experts from France, USA, UK, Belgium, and Switzerland, driving key initiatives to better fight animal abuse.
✨Our unique event resulted in the 10 Police Recommendations for Animals!
🚨 Why These Recommendations Matter
Animal protection is human protection. Research and field experience prove that animal cruelty is deeply intertwined with human crimes such as child abuse, domestic violence, and organized trafficking. These 10 Police Recommendations highlight actionable steps to address animal cruelty as a public safety priority, and ensure justice for all vulnerable beings.
🔑 Key insights from the leading police experts:
🔸Céline Gardel, Police Captain at Les 4 Pattounes (France):
Training officers, collaborating with judges, and raising awareness are essential for preventing, detecting, and combating abuse.
🔹Mark Randell, Senior Investigator at NatureWatch Foundation (UK):
Better protecting animals is better protecting humans.
🔸Siobhan Chase, Sergeant at the Fairfax Police Department (USA):
The collaboration of all criminal justice actors is essential for improving safety and security for all.
🔹 Julien Neirynck, Swiss Border Guard Specialist:
At customs, animals are often treated as ‘goods.’ Combating trafficking requires disrupting the demand through intelligence and global cooperation.
🔹 Julien Lacave, Founder of BALEN (Belgium):
Protecting society means protecting it as a whole. Respect for animals and humans cannot be separated.
