  • No wild animals in Circuses

    ...tion to that effect was submitted to the Federal Council in Berne with 70,676 signatures with the support of 24 other organizations. The Federal Council, however, does not support a ban on wild animals in circuses and wants to leave it to the circus companies to decide whether or not to use wild animals.

April 1, 2024 Switzerland is world-famous - both for its fine, high-quality chocolate and for its strict and favourable animal welfare laws. Unfortunately though,  the image is deceptive: Swiss animal welfare law is nowhere near as good as Swiss chocolate. The appearance of strict animal welfare regulations fades on closer inspection of the individual provisions and their implementation in practice. The four subjects, which were all created digitally, show a horse, a chicken, a dog and a rabbit as chocolate a...

    ...esponding postulate was submitted by Councilor David Stampfli (SP) almost a year ago. TIR is disappointed about the decision of the Bernese cantonal parliament but will nonetheless continue to advocate at the national and cantonal level for mandatory spaying and neutering of outdoor cats. March 24, 2021 Switzerland's cats are suffering. Contrary to popular belief, there is a massive stray cat issue in Switzerland.
