My sense is that there isn’t a consensus. ACE could be better, but absent a competitor which is unlikely to come into existence, looking at their top and standout charities isn’t a bad starting point, or an endpoint if you don’t want to do research yourself. Among these, I particularly like the Fish Welfare Initiative because I intuit that it’s particularly valuable from a risk-neutral perspective. Your mileage may vary.
If you don’t want to (fully) rely on ACE, you might want to look at the Animal Welfare Fund or Founder’s Pledge. Also Open Philanthropy Project works on animal welfare.
