Episode 10 - Oscar Horta - Interventions and advocacy for wild-animal suffering
In this episode I spoke with Oscar Horta about wild-animal suffering. Oscar is a Spanish animal activist and moral philosopher and is currently a professor in the department of philosophy and anthropology at the University of Santiago de Compostela. He is one of the co-founders of Animal Ethics.
We started by defining the problem of wild-animal suffering, talked about what we should do, if anything, about the problem, covered some common objections, talked about specific interventions to help wild animals and some strategies for advocacy to help wild animals.

The Honorable Emma Hurst, MLC, was elected to the NSW Legislative Council in 2019, the second member of the Animal Justice Party to be elected to NSW government. She is a registered psychologist and has worked for several animal protection organisations. Since being elected, she has been working on legislation to help animals in NSW. In our chat, we got in to some interesting questions and tricky issues, so I really hope you’ll enjoy the interview.
