Individual membership Reviews

A delightful and positive way to interact, connect with and learn from people concerned about animal welfare.

Sabrina and the PAWS team have done a wonderful job organizing informative, cutting edge content about animal behavior and welfare and making it accessible to a broad audience. The diversity of resources is a huge plus of the platform and I expect makes the content useful to many different types of scholars and practitioners.

Paws is a great platform, which I can highly recommend for anybody who wants to expand his/her knowledge in animal welfare, self care and sustainability. It provides you with great, science based resources and gives you the option to exchange ideas and experiences with an open minded community.

PAWS is an essential learning site for all zoo/animal professionals.It’s a place where solid science and practical know how are combined so well to enhance animal care and wellness.The constant information updates and webinars/podcasts keep this site very much alive and up too date.I have personally gained so much knowledge and information for my own personal development and that continues with constant use of PAWS,thank you so much for this.Gerry Creighton,Global elephant care.

Animal Concepts provides comprehensive resources that are of benefit to all who might be planning to work with animals, or have well-established careers. The use of various media - podcasts, webinars, documents provides for different learning types. There opportunities for learning, networking, self-care, reflection - only limited by the amount of time that you have to use the resources.

PAWS platform can count on me as a member as long as it exists. I hope I can get more and more engaged with the community, so I can do my part to help this initiative grow in Brazilian zoos.

Overall I have nothing to either add to nor complain about. I am happy with the content. Both as a professional animal trainer and as a human being.

In general I would recommend PAWS to every person who is interested in learning more about animals and animal care taking. PAWS offers a great variety of content, from science base talks, to interesting interviews and people experience working with animals talks. The content is beautifully presented in an easy online format that can be access anytime.

I’m very happy to support this fantastic platform, and be part of a like minded community that’s growing together!

I will be completely honest here when I say that I have not had much time to get involved with the platform as much as I would love to. However, I find it motivational, I learn a lot of things every time I engage with it. Most importantly I started to feel more keen to communicate with people through the platform. I also found the career coaching session quite useful and it turned my perspective about my work and where I stand at the moment. Keep up with the good work and thank you.
