It's 30 years since the last dolphinarium in Britain was closed, ending the unspeakable cruelty of keeping such intelligent creatures in confinement.
Many other important animal welfare advances have followed, most recently last year's Animal Sentience Act which enshrined the welfare of animals in UK law. And I was privileged to play a small part in introducing Lucy's Law to end the horrors of battery puppy farming in Britain.
But while advances are being made here, we could unwittingly be contributing to horrendous animal suffering abroad.
