Are you simply saying you think the marginal value of more money to animal welfare is greater than to longtermist causes?
Note that with diminishing returns, marginal utility per dollar (MU/$) is a function of the level of spending. So it could be the case that the MU/$ for the next $1M to Faunalytics is really high, but drops off above $1M. So I would rephrase your question as:
>do you think the marginal value of more money to animal welfare right now is greater than to longtermist causes?
