The Stiftung Tier im Recht (TIR) is therefore pleased to announce that it can now also present important contents of its website in English. March 21, 2017 In the autumn of 2016, TIR launched its new, completely revised website providing better and more user-friendly services. To date, tierimrecht.org has largely limited itself to content in German, which has made it more difficult or even impossible for the large part of "the world" to access the website. However, animal welfare does not stop at language and othe...

On top of the fear and suffering the people are subjected to, they are also faced with the threat of having to leave behind their beloved animals. March 9, 2022 The European Commission has therefore advised member stat...

A suitable measure to counteract this deficiency would be to introduce a systematic review of the benefits of animal experiments, as Tier im Recht (TIR; Foundation for the Animal in t...

In addition, it is still common practice to kill the male chicks in the egg industry with gas. April 2, 2021 Last year, laying hens in this country laid more than one billion eggs for the second year in a ...

Most African countries allow hunting safaris as long as the specific laws of the country concerned are respected, e.g. regarding protected areas, hunting seasons, laws on weapons, and the respective import and export rules are met, i.e. the corresponding CITES permits have been obtained. Many of the sought-after animals are subject to the Washington Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). While commercial trade in endangered speci...
