He added that the existence
of episodic memory in lower
animals has implications for research on human diseases that
affect memory, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Huntington's diseases, since the
majority of research on the brain — and the drugs used to treat memory diseases and dementia — start out based on insights into how the brain works in rats.
Animals used on farms make up the majority of those raised and used by humans, with an estimated 33 billion land animals alive at any given time.18 This estimate is more exact than any other we will consider, since governments conduct counts of livestock in order to understand and regulate local economies.19 However, this is a somewhat similar undercounting to what we saw for lab animals: fish and shellfish are not counted, and in some areas they are raised for consumption in large numbers.20 The estimates also neglect other animals used for food, such as wild fish or commonly hunted land animals, although these animals may be affected by some of the advocacy aimed at helping farmed animals through promoting diet
