Ayesha Smart in her capacity as a specialist in animal welfare law, provided her legal expert opinion in the Animal Rising Report on RSPCA Assured Farms.

Through 60 investigations across a four month period, Animal Rising obtained videos and photographs from 45 animal farms across the UK. In a report published Sunday, Animal Rising says it found animals suffering on every farm. Smart, who reviewed all the evidence gathered by Animal Rising, identified a total of 280 breaches of legal standards and 94 breaches of codes of practice for animal welfare. She said that it’s clear that farms are failing the animals and among the worst and most frequent breaches were animals left dead and dying inside barns.
