I am a writer and researcher with a particular interest in zoology and human attitudes to animal welfare. I have worked with AnimalWised since 2016 and I firmly believe in an evidence-based approach to reporting on animal issues. Supporting the veterinary medical, zoological and ethological communities by sharing their hard work helps everyone to better care for animals.
