  • 2021 09 10 New TIR brochure: Stop indiscriminate funding of animal experiments!

    New TIR brochure: Stop indiscriminate funding of animal experiments! According to the Swiss Animal Welfare Act, animal experiments are only permissible if they are indispensable and if the anticipated gain in knowledge outweigh the stress on the animals in the context of a balance of interests.

    ..., non-perforated (i.e., without holes or crevices) lying surface that covers the floor. However, the fact that something as basic as a comfortable lying surface is an essential component of this label already shows the low level of the husbandry standard. In practice, the implementation of the requirements in relation to bedding is also generally - apart from a few laudable exceptions - only minimal, i.e., barely covering the floor and not, as shown in the advert, with thick layers of straw in which the animals can dig and burrow.A motion submitted in 2020 by Green National Councillor Meret Sc...
