"Although scientists cannot provide a definitive answer on the level of consciousness for
any non-human vertebrate, the extensive evidence of fish behavioral and cognitive
sophistication and pain perception suggests that best practice would be to lend fish the
same level of protection as any other vertebrate. We should therefore include fish in our
‘moral circle’ and afford them the protection they deserve."

You can find out what happens to fish when we choose to eat them by clicking on the

humane, and though it might not be as hard to watch as abuse towards other animals

- and not because they suffer any less.
