Animal Justice Project

The Animal Justice Project is a dedicated campaigning organization committed to uncovering and addressing animal welfare issues within the dairy industry. This organization has taken significant steps to investigate the conditions and practices on farms, particularly those supplying well-known retailers including Tesco, Morrisons, and Starbucks.

Investigation and Methodology

In response to growing concerns from whistleblowers and the public, Animal Justice Project embarked on a thorough investigation across 13 counties. The organization strategically placed concealed cameras within farm buildings to document and assess the treatment of animals in these facilities. This approach allowed them to gather critical evidence without alerting farm operators, ensuring an unbiased view of the conditions in which animals were kept and treated.

Impact and Significance

The findings from these investigations have had a considerable impact, highlighting the need for improved animal welfare standards and transparency in the dairy supply chain. By targeting farms linked to prominent retailers, Animal Justice Project has drawn attention to the broader implications of consumer choices and the responsibility of corporations in ensuring ethical practices.

The Animal Justice Project released undercover footage documenting welfare breaches, showing 360 potential welfare breaches at farms, including serious cases of lameness and mistreatment of cows.
