The Animals in War Memorial is located in London on Park Lane on the eastern edge of Hyde Park . Unveiled on 24 November 2004 by the Princess Royal, it stands as a memorial to the countless animals that have served and died under British military command throughout history.
Beneath the main header "Animals in War" the memorial has two separate inscriptions:
the first and larger reading:
"This monument is dedicated to all the animals
that served and died alongside British and allied forces
in wars and campaigns throughout time"
The second - but to me the more poignant - smaller inscription simply reads:
"They had no choice"
