Animal Outlook Interview
Animal cruelty isn’t anything new. What’s even more damning is that the very farm animals we eat are treated horribly. Each year, farm animal abuse goes to a new height. The supply and demand of meat mean farmers treat animals in the worst possible ways. Farm animal abuse has been the status quo for decades.
Animal Outlook works to challenge the status quo of animal agribusiness. Their goal revolves around undercover investigations, legal advocacy, and food systems reforms to empower everyone to go vegan.

Animal Outlook Is Exposing the Truth About Animal Abuse
#326 Great.com Talks With... Animal Outlook
Farmed animals are living a life of horror. From birth to slaughter, these animals endure a cruel life. The endless demand for meat is changing the way farmers are treating farm animals. In today's episode, we talked with Cheryl Leahy, Executive Director at Animal Outlook.
Animal outlook is a nonprofit organization that looks at animal abuse as a whole. They have four programs that help people understand the issue that is plaguing the world of animal agriculture. Their research shows that farmers have no compassion over killing animals. Cheryl says that all farmers see are profits. But Cheryl also says these are real beings with emotions.
Addressing Systematic Harms of Animal Agriculture
Animal Outlook has four programs that all orient themselves towards finding ways to address the large-scale systemic harms of animal agriculture. Their programs consist of investigations, legal advocacy, corporate engagement, and outreach.
Each program is geared towards getting farmed animals away from slaughterhouses and advocating for a plant based diet and vegan options. What their investigations show is that animal abuse is at an all-time high. They've worked on exposing the truth for more than 20 years. The organization's legal advocacy program looks to challenge the status quo of animal agriculture from animal cruelty and unfair business practice. Animal Outlook's legal advocacy program fights the systemic injustices of factory farming.
Their third program, corporate engagement, looks to encourage companies to carry more vegan options. While their fourth program looks to get people talking. Through empowerment and education, Animal Outlook works to put an end to buying animal products and encourage people to try a plant based diet.
