Visit to Westfort pig slaughterhouse in IJsselstein during extreme heat

August 25, 2022

Aufgrund der extremen Hitze besuchten wir heute den Schweineschlachthof Westfort in IJsselstein (NL). Die Wartezeiten zu Beginn des Tages (11:00-13:30) betrugen 20-25 Minuten. Das ist nicht schlecht für einen so großen Schlachthof. Die Lastwagen konnten innerhalb weniger Minuten nach ihrer Ankunft unter dem Vordach (Schattennetz) stehen. Unter der Überdachung befinden sich … [Read more...] about Visit to Westfort pig slaughterhouse in IJsselstein during extreme heat

Visit to Vion slaughterhouse in Boxtel during extreme hot weather

August 25, 2022

Today Eyes on Animals revisited Vion pig-slaughterhouse in Boxtel (NL) because of the extreme hot weather (30-33°C). When we arrived a few minutes before 4:00 pm the property was empty. The delivery of pigs had stopped. Even though we think a transport-stop during this hot weather (>30°C) should be standard practice, we are happy to see this in action. During our last … [Read more...] about Visit to Vion slaughterhouse in Boxtel during extreme hot weather

Heat stress inspections at Van Miert poultry slaughterhouse in Breukelen

August 25, 2022

Today we visited Van Miert poultry slaughterhouse in Breukelen (NL). When we arrived, we saw a poultry truck parked in full sun. Six fans were placed alongside the truck, whilst one employee sprayed water on  the road surface underneath the truck. Even though this helps to cool the birds down, it is not enough during this extreme heat (32°C, 40% RH).Because Van Miert was … [Read more...] about Heat stress inspections at Van Miert poultry slaughterhouse in Breukelen

Visit to Vion in Apeldoorn on a warm day

August 11, 2022

Today we returned to Vion in Apeldoorn, where a few weeks ago, we witnessed trucks parked in the sun with increased waiting times of up to two hours. Vion Apeldoorn openly admitted that things had not been done right due to a lack of communication and planning. They let us know via email that following our visit, they will re-evaluate and/or talk with chain … [Read more...] about Visit to Vion in Apeldoorn on a warm day

Heat stress inspection at cattle slaughterhouse Ameco in Apeldoorn

August 11, 2022

Today, we made an unannounced visit to Ameco cattle slaughterhouse because of the extreme heat. When we arrived, we saw a truck with cows standing next to the car wash, mainly in the sun. The truck stood there for at least 40 minutes. This is not acceptable.  We called Ameco, who immediately made time for us. Together we walked onto the property to have a look at … [Read more...] about Heat stress inspection at cattle slaughterhouse Ameco in Apeldoorn

Our most recent newsletter

Dear friends,

I first discovered the bad side of factory-farming and industrial slaughter when I was a young girl of twelve.
When I visited a livestock market I saw a pile of sick animals left for dead behind the building. At a huge industrial poultry slaughterhouse, I saw dozens of live chickens walking around the bloody floor…

😳🐖Ronduit verbijsterend is echter het feit, dat de dierenarts van de #NVWA niet met zekerheid kon vaststellen dat “de dieren lijden aan hittestress.’ Oordeelt u zelf! https://www.bnnvara.nl/zembla/artikelen/beelden-van-oververhitte-varkens-bij-slachterij-vion #hittestress #varkens

😳🐖 Onvoorstelbaar! Varkens moeten bij de #NVWA dus echt halfdood zijn om in aanmerking te komen voor de het begrip ‘lijden onder hittestress’. U begrijpt dat hier het laatste woord nog niet over gesproken is…. #hittestress #varkens
