    Fire safety measures could save lives - a chronology of efforts to protect farm animals from TIR’s perspective Animals regularly die a horrible death as a result of fires on livestock farms. Hundreds of animals bred and kept for human consumption are affected every year, last year even around 1000. The risks have long been recognised, but there are still no effective guidelines for preventive measures that could save lives. The Foundation for Animals in the Law (TIR), together with seven other organisations, is once again drawing the attention of the federal government to its responsibility in...

  • 2017 08 10 Animal friendly holidays – problematic souvenirs and delicacies
