2017 11 23 TIR continues successful campaign against animal cruelty
...m view. This is the case for many farm animals and wildlife such as sheep and fish, which lack the mimic or vocal means to express their pain and suffering. In late Summer of 2017, years of undetected or rather overlooked animal abuse came to light in the so-called "Hefenhofen" case (for more information on the Hefenhofen case, see news release from August 29, 2017), which showed that horses in Switzerland are also subject to immense animal cruelty.The new campaign images were again designed by the renowned creative agency Ruf Lanz with which TIR has been cooperating successfully for man...

...s been assigned the case. Since animals are treated as objects under the law and have no legal capacity, the lawsuit is purely symbolic – his client cannot lose the case.What the lawyer doesn't know, however, is that an international team of researchers is already working vigorously on the other side to use artificial intelligence to decipher communication with animals – a breakthrough that could change everything. Veteran lawyer Rabenstein and his assistant Enna, a committed animal rights activist, are convinced that if they succeed in making Rosa's voice audible, there is a real chance of wi...

2021 03 04 TIR files criminal complaint: animal welfare law also applies to fish!
...wn. In a documented case, Tier im Recht (TIR; Foundation for the Animal in the Law) has now filed charges for improper handling of a trout. March 4, 2021 In the fall of 2020, a fishing magazine printed a photo report on a trout fishing trip. In at least one of the pictures, a dry hand is holding a fish and it is obvious that the animal has been not stunned beforehand and is still conscious. The visibly firm and improper hand grip is clearly exerting significant pressure on the animal's internal organs, particularly its heart. In agreement with various experts, TIR assumes that in this case the...

2018 02 02 TIR files criminal complaint for animal welfare violations in chicken rearing
...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 terms of punishability, on the contrary: there is an urgent need to reconsider poultry farming in order to avoid the constant disregard for the welfare and dignity of the animals. Particular focus should thereby be pla...

Outside the EU, there is a lack of suitable inspection and supply stations for the animals. Transport planning is often inadequate and emergency plans for crisis situations are completely lacking. Animals suffer from e...
