Akron Law’s Student Animal Legal Defense Fund (SALDF) is a student organization providing a forum for education, advocacy, and scholarship aimed at protecting the lives and advancing the interests of animals through the legal system. Animal Law is a growing field consisting of many areas. It involves companion animals, wildlife, entertainment, research, food production, trafficking, animal cruelty, and more. While some attorneys pursue full-time Animal Law work, many work in other areas but devote time to Animal Law related causes through pro bono work.
