🤔 As it stands, the EU’s biggest farming policy is pretty ineffective when it comes to supporting #AnimalWelfare. bit.ly/3IdWCQQ Yet with some structural changes, new objectives, clear targets & more, it could improve the lives of billions of sentient beings in Europe, in a major way. Dive in 👇

The overlooked resource that could make a huge difference to farm animal welfare in the EU

Despite being the EU’s biggest farming policy, a new report reveals that the Common Agricultural Policy is not being used all that well when it comes to supporting farm animal welfare across Europe.…

We are told live export is a highly regulated industry. We are told animal welfare is of utmost importance. The evidence shows otherwise. DAFM even admits animals are over crowded, stressed and often immunocompromised. But the journey isn't the worst of it. Please join our campaign. Link in bio 🐮

On Saturday @ethicalfarmie.bsky.social assembled to urge #BrittanyFerries to stop transporting live farmed animals from Ireland. They're even transporting unweaned calves - just weeks old - which is against EU regulations💔 #BanLiveExports

Feeding a growing population cannot come at the expense of animal welfare. Overcrowded fish farms cause stress for these intelligent animals & spread disease. What's more: it can take 500 small fish to produce 1 farmed salmon. How is this sustainable? foodservicefootprint.com/faos-guideli...

Livestock vessel Express M repeatedly suffered engine failure during a shipment from Romania to Israel. These sea journeys must be banned! splash247.com/open-letter-...

Millions of citizens are waiting for the @ec.europa.eu to answer their call to #EndTheCageAge & create a #FurFreeEurope. At this week's Animal Welfare Intergroup meeting, we ask the attending MEPs to ask for clarification from Animal Welfare Commissioner Olivér Várhelyi.

A bit of good news. Stena is taking the Horizon off the Rosslare/Cherbourg route for a month & the replacement ferry can't carry livestock. That's put a dampener on the industry. It's time farmers started caring for their calves themselves instead of offloading them👩‍🌾🐮 www.agriland.ie/farming-news...

It's so unfair that EU rules state unweaned calves must be fed,what's wrong with depriving them of milk for 30+ hours whilst crammed in a truck 300 at a time. We have the best standards in the EU and should be allowed to break the law! #calves #dairy #animalcruelty farmersjournal.ie/dairy/news/c...

Frequent 'housing orders' due to avian flu force all poultry indoors, raising concerns for animal welfare, free-range producers & consumer confidence. Input by @irishorganic.bsky.social @ethicalfarmie.bsky.social IFA & Brendan Guinan, FiorBhia & Grounded in Soil www.independent.ie/irish-news/e...

Explainer: Why chicken and eggs sold as ‘free-range’ increasingly come from birds reared indoors

Shoppers are paying extra for ‘free-range’ eggs and meat from chickens that are increasingly being kept indoors as the threat from avian flu grows.

The most important welfare indicator for pigs is an intact curly tail. 99% of Irish pigs have docked tails 🤔 The main issue is the lack of optimal enrichment. Finland & Sweden are the only member states that adhere to the EC Pig Directive. This is Bord Bia Approved 🐷#PigAwareIreland

Almost all pigs in Ireland have routinely docked tails and clipped teeth, in breach of EU legislation.

It's not just Stena Line profiting from cruelty now Brittany Ferries has chosen to show the world they are also devoid of morals & compassion. They will soon start carrying calves from Ireland to France, an 18 hour journey during which the calves can't be fed #calves #cruelty #stopliveexports #dairy

Animals exported outside the EU don't just suffer during the journey. They will all face a brutal slaughter, whether they go for dairy, breeding, fattening or slaughter. We recently aired a new film in Brussels showing a number of abattoirs in the destination countries: rb.gy/ci2csn #StopLiveExports

🛥️ Livestock vessel Shorthorn Express is loading today with 2,000 young bulls at Greenore Port for a shipment to Morocco - a country with appalling animal welfare standards, particularly at slaughter. Many bulls will become sick or injured during the 5 day sea journey, some may die 🐮 #StopLiveExport
