Timeline of wild animal suffering

This is a timeline of the movement to reduce wild-animal suffering (sometimes also called the "WAS" or "RWAS" movement).

How the timeline was built
The initial version of the timeline was written by User:Louis.

In July 2019, User:Mati Roy reviewed the whole timeline and added notable events since mid-2018. It took zir about 6 hours. Formatting of sources was outsourced [more info to come]. The work was live-streamed here:, ,. [Funding information to come.]

What the timeline is still missing

 * Tomasik articles that I, User:Louis, didn't bother to add so far
 * New Nature Ethics articles
 * New WASR articles
 * ACE Research Funding
 * Horta articles
 * Other academic philosophy articles, perhaps, depending on relevance
 * There should be stuff between Mill and Singer?
 * Buddhists?
 * Relevant pieces of WAS art (?)
 * Popularity of RWAS (?) (ie. Google Trends, WAS FB group members, etc.)
 * Table of total money went to charity working on RWAS (see Google Sheet Total Money and Grants -- edit access public).
