In 2019, We Animals Media was founded as a nonprofit organization dedicated to this emerging genre of photojournalism that represents not only wild or charismatic animals, but farmed, experimented upon and otherwise exploited animals. This planted the seed for a new kind of reporting coined by McArthur in 2020: animal photojournalism. In Ecuador in 1998, she witnessed a monkey chained to a windowsill trained to pick the pockets of tourists while everyone seemed to find this entertaining, McArthur instead wanted to take a photograph that could convey the degradation of both this monkey and the people in this moment of exploitation. We Animals was born from Jo-Anne McArthur’s desire to accurately document how we use animals. ![]()
