Crustacean Compassion is an animal welfare organisation dedicated to obtaining full legal protection for decapod crustaceans. We are a group of professional animal welfare campaigners who are shocked by the inhumane treatment of crabs, lobsters, prawns and crayfish in the food industry, given what is now known about their sentience.
Our campaigns are grounded in scientific evidence. Furthermore, we do not campaign against the use of decapod crustaceans as food. The sentience of any animal can never be 100% conclusively proven, but where doubt still exists alongside strong positive evidence, we believe that the benefit of the doubt should apply and simple measures taken to ensure that no animal suffers needlessly for our plates.
