Research Team

This site has been developed as part of a larger research project studying animal protection work and policy in Canada and internationally. The project is funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and led by Dr. Kendra Coulter.

The site is intended to evolve over time, and animal protection involves a broader set of strategies, programs, and policies. Any suggested additions or corrections should be sent to: kendra.coulter@huron.uwo.ca

At this time it focuses on settler-colonial laws and legal systems.
