Impact & achievements

At Crustacean Compassion, our mission is to ensure the humane treatment and welfare of decapod crustaceans such as crabs, lobsters, and prawns. Since our founding, we have made significant strides in advocating for their recognition as sentient beings and protecting them from unnecessary suffering. Our dedicated efforts have led to landmark legislative changes, industry shifts, and growing public awareness. Through research, campaigning, and collaboration with policymakers, businesses, and scientists, we have helped create a more compassionate world for these often-overlooked animals.

​
