Please sign. Spanish plans have been cancelled thanks to actions like this. Nowhere in the World there should be octopus farming. Octopuses are highly intelligent creatures.

María González highlights a major legal move: a proposed amendment to Law 23/1984 seeks to ban octopus farming — prohibiting its use for consumption, farming or trade. Introduced last month in Congress, this is the first step in a long parliamentary path.

"Most of those who testified urged the committee to enact a ban, calling octopus farming cruel because octopuses are intelligent creatures who feel pain and stress."

Key Distinction
Important: there’s a difference between opposing factory-farmed octopus and banning all octopus fishing. Local, artisanal wild harvests, like in Madagascar, are not industrial aquaculture. That distinction matters.

A Possible Way Forward?
Can we protect sentient marine life and support human dignity? Maybe. Start by supporting only truly sustainable, small-scale, community-run octopus fisheries and oppose the rise of factory-farmed octopus.

Sadly, another example of the #AnimalResearch community viewing their chosen species as ‘subjects’ to be exploited. A closer look at the principles and practices of #AnimalWelfare scientists reveals similar attitudes. #Octopus #Cephalopods #Wildlife #Seafood #OctopusFarming #AquaticAnimalWelfare 🐙⬇️
I wrote about the race to stop octopus farming before it starts. This issue has been covered a fair amount, so I wanted to look at one under-covered aspect of it -- why do so many people who study octopuses, and are fascinated by them, support farming them?

🐙 Octopuses Do Not Belong in Farms.
Octopuses are among the most intelligent and emotionally complex animals on the planet.
They are not "seafood." They are someone.
Let’s stand together for science, compassion, and the animals who can’t speak for themselves.
