No Animal Left Behind is a 2021 report by Eurogroup for Animals, a European animal welfare organization. The report examines the welfare of farmed animals in the European Union (EU) and argues that current EU legislation is failing to protect them.
The report begins with an introduction to the concept of a “good life” for farmed animals, which is defined as one where positive feelings and states outweigh negative ones such as pain and fear. The report argues that the EU’s farmed animals deserve a good life, but many are suffering from significant and avoidable welfare issues.
The report uses the Five Domains model, developed by Professor Mellor and colleagues in 1994, to assess the welfare of farmed animals. The Five Domains are: health, environment, nutrition, behavioral interactions, and mental state. The report argues that the Five Domains model offers an ideal framework for legislation, as it provides a foundation for all aspects of animal welfare.
The report examines the welfare of several species of farmed animals in the EU, including broiler chickens, laying hens, sows and their piglets, grower pigs, dairy cows, and fish. For each species, the report discusses their health, environment, nutrition, behavioral interactions, and mental state. The report concludes that current EU legislation is failing to provide these animals with a good life.
