EonA meets with Denkavit to discuss L214’s exposure of mistreatment of calves at their testing station in France

November 16, 2022

Today we met with the managers of Denkavit’s headquarters in the Netherlands. Denkavit is a large Dutch company working internationally and producing white veal and feed for veal calves. The reason we asked for a meeting is that we had seen footage taken by the French NGO L214 showing very rough and disrespectful treatment of young calves at one of their feed-testing … [Read more...] about EonA meets with Denkavit to discuss L214’s exposure of mistreatment of calves at their testing station in France

New film on the fate of Irish unweaned calves on “illegal” export routes that EU tolerates

January 14, 2022

Ireland continues to break EU feeding laws for unweaned calves during transport when they export them to mainland Europe via roll-on roll-off ferry. From the moment the calves are loaded on the trucks in Ireland to the moment they are finally given feed/milk after arrival in France at least 24 - 30 hours have gone by. Milk is the only type of “ feed”  these young animals … [Read more...] about New film on the fate of Irish unweaned calves on “illegal” export routes that EU tolerates

May 27, 2021

Hunland Group has publically announced it will go beyond the ambiguous EU rules and completely stop transporting unweaned calves under the age of 3 months. The reason for their decision is that calves cannot be given the proper care and feeding they need while cooped up on a truck.  Calves of this age are dependent on milk for nutrition, and cannot yet … [Read more...] about Hunland, Europes’ largest animal transport and trading company, stops transport of unweaned calves
