Practical training of French Gendarmes, Arras, France

November 21, 2019

Eyes on Animals was together with Welfarm and the French gendarmes (that we gave a theory training to last month) in northern France to stop and check on animal trucks passing by. A Dutch truck loaded with sheep coming from Harlingen and heading to a slaughterhouse in southern France was inspected. Although there were fortunately no violations to the EU animal transport law, transporting sheep for 21 hours to just be slaughtered is unfortunate.

  • Police training
  • Sheep in truck

Nevertheless we would like to thank the drivers for being open and doing their best within the law (water tank was full, all fans worked, adequate headspace and thick bedding) and to the gendarmes for helping get the animal-welfare during transport laws into practice.

🐐🐏 Geen verrassing, dit slachthuis heeft ons ook nooit binnen willen laten en dat is meestal een veeg teken.
Goed werk @_NVWA ! #slacht
