Yora is an innovative dog food brand that makes its products with an alternative to meat and fish—insects. The insect-based food for dogs is suitable for all breeds and is touted as "the most sustainable dog food in the world." As well as being eco-friendly, the dog food is cost-effective, as a 12-kilogram bag of feed costs less than a dollar per day for a medium breed.
The insect-based dog food is made with whole Hermetia Illucens larvae that's dried and turned into a "flour" that serves as a nutrient-dense meal base that’s packed with protein and minerals. Yora is a single-protein diet and is especially easy on a dog’s digestive system. Alongside insects, the innovative dog food formula also features nutritious vegetables that require minimal resources to grow.
