Animals, like humans, suffer and die from natural causes. This is
particularly true of animals living in the wild, given their high
exposure to, and low capacity to cope with, harmful natural
processes. Most wild animals likely have short lives, full of
suffering, usually ending in terrible deaths. This book argues that
on the assumption that we have reasons to assist others in need, we
should intervene in nature to prevent or reduce the harms wild
animals suffer, provided that it is feasible and that the expected
result is positive overall. It is of the utmost importance that
academics from different disciplines as well as animal advocates
begin to confront this issue. The more people are concerned with
wild animal suffering, the more probable it is that safe and
effective solutions to the plight of wild animals will be
implemented in the future.
