23. Philzoothropy
Description
If you're thinking, hmm, I've never heard the word philzoothropy before, you're right!
It's a totally new word.
Philzoothropy is a love of animals, especially as shown by contributing time, money, influence etc to their general welfare. It's a new take on an existing word (philanthropy) and makes us think about how we can spend money in more intelligent ways, that helps both animals and humans.
