Checking on new- born lambs in the Netherlands

March 17, 2009

calfs_2009

On our way to an investigation we came across a small flock of sheep in a field, with several new-born lambs of just a few days of age. The farmer greeted us and spoke about his sheep with admiration. They had an indoor area and a large outdoor field. One could tell that the animals were well-treated because they did not show any fright towards the farmer, if anything they approached him and stood by his side. The sheep and new-born all appeared in very good shape. We enjoyed this short visit!

🐄 Around 17 million dairy calves are farmed in the EU every year.

Most spend their first weeks in small individual pens - unable to play, socialise properly, or move freely.

The @eu_commission must keep its promise to #EndTheCageAge.

The fact that the lives of some species matters less than our own, shames us all @CIWF_Global

🐄🌳👍 Deze beelden spreken voor zich.
Op warme dagen zoeken koeien, net als wij, de schaduw op.
Schaduw bieden is geen luxe, maar een basisbehoefte. #dierwaardig # hittestress
