Hi, I’m Gemma, the Sentience Manager at World Animal Protection.

I care deeply about all aspects of animal welfare. As a scientist, I believe that we need robust evidence to inspire the people and groups who have the power to make positive change for animals. Having knowledge of the emotional lives of animals is key to help us understand what they need and how we can protect them. It would be hard to make lasting change for animals without truly understanding them.

My blog will bring you some surprising facts and the latest scientific findings about the emotional lives of animals.
