The goal here is to follow the world's best researchers on all aspects of the consciousness/ cognition puzzle which pertain to nonhumans.

VLM Species Counts - Global Vegan Crowd Funder

The Vegan Land Movement has some wonderful news. In August 2022 several of the VLM volunteers visited all 4 of the parcels of land that have been removed from dairy grazing. The main objective was to record the species that have returned to the first parcel of land removed in September 2020. We all travelled โ€ฆ VLM Species Counts Read More ยป
