New Zealand treats animals inhumanely – but it could become a world leader in their welfare

New Zealand treats animals inhumanely – but it could become a world leader in their welfare Philip McKibbin © Provided by The Guardian Photograph: William West/AFP/Getty Images Aotearoa New Zealand is a pretty good place to live – if you’re human, that is. If you happen to be a non-human animal, chances are you’re not doing very well. Nonetheless, New Zealanders are becoming increasingly sensitive to welfare issues. Perhaps the biggest indication that attitudes are changing can be seen in our diets: according to research released last year, 15% of New Zealanders avoid meat most or all of the time. Policy is changing, too. The government recently announced that it is banning livestock exports by sea – albeit with a two-year ‘transition period’. Two days later, it launched an inquiry into greyhound racing, following welfare concerns.

These developments are positive, but they are not enough. Although welfare laws improve animals’ lives, they are not aimed at ending exploitation – and in some cases, they are directed at securing its economic viability. In announcing the ban on live exports, the minister of agriculture, Damien O’Connor, justified the policy as enhancing our reputation as “ethical producers of livestock protein”. The message was clear: the ban on live exports is not a step toward ending our use of other animals, it will help to ensure its continued profitability. Our use and abuse of animals is morally wrong. We must acknowledge that they are sentient beings with interests, and treat them as such.
