2022 02 08 Update on TIR campaign to ban the import of hunting trophies
Update on TIR campaign to ban the import of hunting trophies Following the National Council's adoption of the proposal, TIR hopes the Council of States too will approve the ban on the import of hunting trophies. Tier im Recht (TIR; Foundation for the Animal in the Law) has supported this issue, which is important from both an animal welfare and species protection point of view, by collecting signatures for an open letter to the Council of States since late last year and by recently printing a flyer on the topic. February 8, 2022 In trophy hunting, the goal is to preserve the hunted wild animal...

2021 12 14 TIR thrilled that National Council supports import ban for fur products derived from animal cruelty
...the fur originates, where the animal lived and how it was kept or hunted. In TIR's opinion, however, simply declaring the animal's origin is not enough. According to Swiss animal welfare law, the fur production methods commonly used abroad constitute clear cruelty to animals. Therefore, furs and fur products obtained by such methods should not be allowed to enter Switzerland at all. An import ban on fur products derived from cruelty to animals is therefore urgently needed. A ban is the only way to prevent domestic demand from promoting forms of fur production abroad that are clearly rejected b...

... welfare violations can be prevented in the future. Only an official inspection can be described as suitable in terms of proportionality. TIR therefore hopes that the justified concerns of Daniel Jositsch and Meret Schneider will find support in the parliament.

2019 04 04 Criminal complaint against slaughterhouse in Avenches: TIR disappointed at excessively lenient sentence
...litera f of AWA and can also constitute animal cruelty in the form of killing an animal in a cruel manner pursuant to article 26 paragraph 1 litera b AWA. In the fall of 2018, TIR filed a criminal complaint with the competent public prosecutor's office against the slaughterhouses of Avenches and Moudon (see TIR news release of October 15, 2018). In February 2019, the Vaud authorities sentenced a slaughterhouse worker to a fine of 250 francs for violating article 28 paragraph 1 litera f AWA (improper slaughtering) and article 13 of the Ordinance of the FSVO on animal welfare during slaughter...

2018 10 22 TIR supports referendum against the construction of the Ozeanium in Basel
...saltwater aquariums can be bred in captivity. Less than 1% of the animals used this way are actually bred because capturing them in the wild is still cheaper and easier. Moreover, the animals are caught, transported and treated using exceedingly questionable methods. On average, 4 out of 5 fish die before they arrive at their destined aquarium because of inhumane catching methods and poor transport conditions. Today, more than 60% of the world's coral reefs are in immediate danger, with demand for aquarium fish playing a major role. Since almost none of the species concerned are protected, no ...

2018 08 07 How well-meaning volunteers working in Africa unintentionally support dubious animal farms
...luntary work is, it can prove counterproductive when volunteers helping in the rearing of lion and tiger cubs unintentionally promote trophy hunting. Animal farm owners often falsely claim that the cubs have been rejected by their mothers and promise volunteers that the animals will be reintroduced into the wild. Reintroduction is almost impossible, especially with regard to wild felines that have become so accustomed to humans. Instead, after rearing, the animals are used for canned hunting, which is a special and morally highly questionable form of trophy hunting, whereby animals that have b...

2018 02 02 TIR files criminal complaint for animal welfare violations in chicken rearing
...sly injured animals can be seen that have been overlooked due to the excessive number of animals kept there and were therefore subject to significant suffering. Every animal owner has a special statutory duty of care. They are obliged to check on the condition of their animals as often as necessary and immediately place, care for, treat or painlessly kill sick or injured animals according to the state they are in. In TIR's view, the images show clear violations of animal welfare law. The fact that such cases are considered a normal part of poultry meat production does not change anything in ...

2016 04 20 Protecting wild animals from poaching – The fight against the illegal wildlife trade
... especially in Asia where it is thought to have healing effects. Rhino horn is now being sold at higher prices than gold. The situation is also tragic for elephants: according to a current survey, an estimated 100'000 elephants were killed by poachers for their ivory between 2010 and 2012. Not only elephants and rhinos are affected by poaching, but also many other species, such as the now rare pangolin. Apart from ivory and rhino horn, also live animals, such as birds, reptiles, fish, apes, and numerous other mammals are being smuggled on a regular basis. The illegal trade in wildlife generate...
