Eyes on Animals inspectors checked on a livestock truck transporting rabbits to slaughter. During the winter, and particularly tonight, there are very strong cold winds and thus the trucks transporting these small animals must have lateral wind-protectors. One truck however only had partial side protectors, and thus a few columns of stacked transport crates were exposed to the elements and the rabbits inside were crowded in the back of the crates, as far away as possible from the wind. We took footage to raise awareness of this during our police and livestock transport trainings.
