it is a major problem is that animals are increasingly being sold under the pretense of animal welfare many from romania they say they're rescuing stray dogs then for a fee of $60.00 or 70 dogs are referred over facebook to owners who know nothing about them and some companies are even specializing in shipping them on mass from eastern europe to germany. this is nice of you to help but this is actually a matter for the state the threat of prosecution has to be that i suggest each district gets its own animal welfare department exclusively for this instead of leaving it to the food inspectors if you want to know is in quote one of them secret all system the thieves are just into the office with you as an animal welfare arrest i often have to call the police myself research and document cases the veterinary office does it half heartedly. they say they weren't there to see it even though it was their job and they can't impose any fines because they don't know the facts i get the impression there's no will to take action if the. stuff unclip stein has his own dog but he spends less time wi

well i'm sure no one really is cruel to animals on purpose by the fact remains that killing an animal when you really don't have to is always going to be cruel so no matter how you are going to kill the animal there is no nice way of taking away our life which we don't have to take away so the fact remains that the human body has no need whatsoever imo products such as meat dairy and eggs we can live happy and healthy lives on if you can die at the leading authority and you tension here in the u.k. . british dietetic association they share the message that you can be happy and healthy on a diet regardless of what your age is and what your life stages so that includes children infants pregnant women older people as you hear. it's not about the single not the media it's about how they're killed and is it acceptable to be slitting the throats of the animals in particular what do you think about that. well from if you go to the spectrum of course it is a step in the right direction to be a bit less cruel then to be more cruel if you like but the fact remains that we don't need to be doing

standards also apply to animal welfare. and. it had been good and not for as me though serious as the seal is associated with a large number of basic standards which of course also cover animal welfare as far as all is concerned you know i would as was but this is a very complex situation. as i said the sea will also deal with animal welfare standards met and because. it is my staff will explain the details of. the spokesperson says that the minister will provide a statement later today. you might think that good mullo would welcome the opportunity to discuss a project that's very important to him and. we try to talk to him again later but he declined our request for an interview. so we went back to the consumer initiative office. spirit does this new seal apply to animal welfare not mine i'm vison but it's based on what i've learned so 5 plays only a small role if any too small the certification program needs to address the issue of animal welfare people who are concerned about this need to make their voices heard and if the mi

and jewish faiths allowing kosher slaughter requires the animals to be alive and healthy at the time they killed they were throats cut pretty stunning isn't always use which is why the practice has been banned in several e.u. countries the new law in belgium those prompted much to blame a welfare groups say this law is not about targeting religious. it is absolutely not a ban on religious slaughter not at all it is a ban on slaughter without stunning even if you follow all the rules and use a very sharp blade and you do everything according to religious tradition even then the animal will suffer i think that the bans have more to do with 2 legged animals that with 4 legged ones if there is one positive thing that comes out of this latest attempt to tail religious freedom is to bring in close jewish and muslim communities everyone will just do our home or in some corner hidden from view i don't think that's what they want to achieve. we discussed the controversy then with a panel of experts who put together. it is the heart and debate the issue to say. was death is quicker why histori

the manager is keeping animals. just because they're going to get another facial are going to get another layer and unfortunately on these farms which have the bad welfare that's the mentality. how often does this happen. it's absolutely not everywhere but it's not really a crisis not which there's. a lot more properties and what. the industry like to have your blood. right now and no one's going to admit to that peter says he's also seen this sort of abuse on farms that have been checked by animal welfare inspectors. the property owners would know they're coming in they'll come in. and everything looks hunky dory everything looks good on the dock and i get sharon like that sharon just where the property owner wouldn't want to show them that they actually don't get free rides and so it's really a case of you know who checks the check or. if regular inspections don't help to promote animal welfare perhaps the answer lies in better cooperation between sheep founds and clothing manufacturers we've traveled to a farm on

for the muslim and jewish faith and kosher slaughter requires the animals to be alive and healthy at the time they kill by having their throats cut pretty stunning isn't always used which is why the practice has been banned in several e.u. countries now this new law in belgium prompted much debate them but animal welfare groups said the law was not about targeting religious. it is absolutely not a ban on religious slaughter not at all it is a ban on slaughter without stunning even if you follow all the rules and use a very sharp blade and you do everything according to religious tradition even then the animal will suffer i think the bounds of more to do with the 2 legged animals than with the 4 legged ones if there is one positive thing that comes out of this latest attempt to curtail religious freedom it's the bringing closer together of the jewish and muslim communities everyone will just do our home or in some corner hidden from view i don't think that's what they want to achieve. well you know to you we put this to a panel to see that this new law might mean for religious freedom

56000000 animals are killed every single year whenever i see a chick the truckload of chicken. goes to this slaughter house in winter or in the hot days of summer. i feel the pain. but i wouldn't have it. to come as far as to see it should be banned because if it true it would be banned that this is all this will solve part of the problem of saddam will definitely will not go with malcolm do you see how much discussion we have to have about things that are less cruel less this less that how about we just don't know most all together which is actually the natural instinct that humans have you know when we grow up as children we laugh to play with animals would love to cuddle them as well one 3rd of the chickens coming to stand sort of process makes them forbid and for people at muslims and jews to eat even some practicing christians now the question is religious freedom are you ok with religious groups having the freedom to kosher or not. this is r t on the way the big name american actors are planning a hall of shame for fellow performers who backed donald trump and why russia'
