Animals in War Memorial, War memorial at Park Lane, London, United Kingdom.
The Animals in War Memorial features bronze sculptures depicting horses, dogs, and mules alongside carved stone walls displaying scenes of animal service.
Unveiled in 2004, this memorial commemorates millions of animals that served in military conflicts throughout British history, from World War I onwards.
Regular ceremonies at the memorial bring together veterans, families, and animal welfare organizations to honor the contributions of animals in warfare.
Located near Hyde Park and Marble Arch, the memorial offers educational panels explaining the roles of different animals in military operations.
The monument includes two inscribed messages: 'They had no choice' and 'This is a tribute to all the animals that served and died alongside British forces.'
