SAFE Animal SquadThe scale of suffering faced by animals in New Zealand, particularly farmed animals, is immense - but we are driving positive change at an immense scale too. Stand with us as we demand change for animals in Aotearoa.
SAFE’s vision is a world where animal rights are valued. We work to achieve that vision through our mission to end the exploitation of animals.
That future isn’t far away. With the help of our supporters, every day we are making massive wins for thousands of animals, and each step forward brings us closer to an Aotearoa where all animals matter.

Mud farming (also known as intensive winter grazing) is one of the most overtly cruel and environmentally damaging farming practices in Aotearoa.
Animals are forced to live and give birth in cold, wet mud through the winter season. This practice causes extreme discomfort to animals and severely pollutes our freshwater.
On the 30th of April 2023, Aotearoa enacted a world-leading ban on the live export of cows, sheep, deer, and goats by sea. The ban was implemented following decades of substantial evidence proving that animals are harmed in the trade. However, this historic victory for animals is under threat as the coalition government is attempting to reinstate this horrific industry.
You’ll find us everywhere – from farms to the Beehive, from the High Court to the classroom, from television news to social media – working to ensure the concerns of animals are the concerns of the nation.
