The bulls are reloaded and sent on to Irak

December 2, 2012

After being on a long journey from Latvia to the Bulgarian/Turkish border, and then stuck on board for days there, the bulls were finally unloaded for 22 hours due to our pressure. Nevertheless, yesterday evening they were reloaded onto the truck because Turkish officials, not knowing what else to do since the Bulgarians/EU refused to let these EU bulls back into the EU, made an exception and will allow these animals to be transported via Turkey to Irak. The truck will be followed by Turkish customs via GPS to “make sure it never stops”. Animal Welfare Foundation and Eyes on Animals team trails the truck to make sure the drivers take care of the animals and to document this horribly long and chaotic journey. At 14:00 today the exhausted bulls are at least fed and given water on board.

Our most recent newsletter

Dear friends and supporters,

As you know, we spend quite some time trying to reduce animal suffering and fear inside slaughterhouses by working directly with the plants.

This work is not always very glamorous. And most of the time we are not allowed to be too public about it.
