ICAN Declaration
For all accepted ICAN members
All charities, organisations and individuals who are accepted as an ICAN member will need to sign the declaration below.
“I hereby acknowledge that all animals are sentient beings, capable of rich emotions, have the capacity to feel pain and have complex, species-specific needs.
I declare that in the care, management and training of all animals I interact with, I will always seek to promote positive emotions and protect against negative ones.
Furthermore, I will always endeavour to understand the specific needs and welfare of the animals in my care and fulfil them to the best of my ability.”
