    Internship in Animal Welfare Law at TIR TIR offers students and university graduates the opportunity to gain initial experience in the field of animal welfare law as part of a short internship and gain an insight into everyday working life at TIR. A three-month internship has also been offered since 2023.

In addition, the existing regulations are not consistently enforced. In its annual analysis of animal welfare criminal practice, the Foundation for ...


  • 2025 06 26 TIR calls for minimum requirements for the husbandry of calves raised with their mothers or foster mothers

    TIR calls for minimum requirements for the husbandry of calves raised with their mothers or foster mothers Raising calves with their mothers or foster mothers not only benefits animal welfare, but also the health of the calves. Unfortunately, however, there are currently no clear minimum requirements for this more animal-friendly form of husbandry in Switzerland. This leads to competitive disadvantages in agriculture and misleads consumers. Together with the Cowpassion association, the MuKa specialist unit and the global animal welfare organisation FOUR PAWS, the Foundation for the Animal in t...


  • 2019 01 07 No animal takes pleasure in suffering! – TIR launches new campaign against animal cruelty

    No animal takes pleasure in suffering! – TIR launches new campaign against animal cruelty No animal takes pleasure in suffering! – TIR launches new campaign against animal cruelty Animal welfare calls for unique ideas when it comes to raising public awareness for animal cruelty. The Stiftung für das Tier im Recht (TIR) has therefore once again chosen to work with renowned advertising agency Ruf Lanz. Featuring animals in BDSM costumes and the slogan "No animal takes pleasure in suffering", our campaign calls to mind that in Switzerland, too, countless animals fall victim to abuse. January 7...


  • 2024 11 18 TIR explains the legal and practical reality of Swiss pig farming

    TIR explains the legal and practical reality of Swiss pig farming Agricultural organisations frequently refer to the strict Swiss animal welfare laws. State-subsidised advertising of happy animals is intended to stimulate the desire for meat and counteract any guilty conscience. The Foundation for the Animal in the Law (TIR) is deeply concerned about the legal basis and enforcement in Switzerland - and paints a completely different picture to that of advertising and the industry. November 18,2024 The standard of Swiss pig farming can be described as modest at best. In an international comparis...


  • 2025 05 30 Fur import ban and declaration obligation for animal foodstuffs - TIR welcomes new regulations, but also points out shortcomings

    Fur import ban and declaration obligation for animal foodstuffs - TIR welcomes new regulations, but also points out shortcomings Last Wednesday, the Federal Council passed a ban on the import of fur products produced in a cruel manner as well as a declaration requirement for foie gras products and certain animal foodstuffs obtained abroad using painful procedures without analgesia. The ban on fur imports in particular is a milestone from an animal welfare perspective, which the Foundation for the Animal in the Law (TIR) and other organizations have been working towards for a long time. However...


  • 2018 06 14 TIR supports "Stop Live Transport" campaign

    TIR supports "Stop Live Transport" campaign On today's worldwide "Stop Live Transport" day, animal welfare organizations from all over the world are raising awareness for the enormous suffering of farm animals on long-distance transports. June 14, 2018 Every year, millions of animals are transported across Europe and other continents; this is due to an absurd subsidy system that creates incentives for live transport. In European countries, there are a number of provisions for the protection of animals for slaughter and fattening during transport. For example, regular watering and feeding are r...


  • 2024 12 16 TIR calls for a ban on animal transports to high-risk animal welfare countries

    TIR calls for a ban on animal transports to high-risk animal welfare countries Time and again, horrific images of unsustainable conditions during international animal transports reach the public. Most recently, 69 heavily pregnant cattle from Germany died or were senselessly killed at the Turkish border in unimaginable agony, for bureaucratic reasons. The Foundation for the Animal in the Law (TIR) draws attention to the urgent need to revise the EU regulations on animal transport. December 16, 2024 What happened to 69 cattle at the Turkish border in September and October 2024 cannot be adequat...

  • 2017 11 29 TIR demands an import ban on products obtained by cruelty to animals - Council of States rejects proposal

    TIR demands an import ban on products obtained by cruelty to animals - Council of States rejects proposal Today, the Council of States rejected the proposal of National Council member Matthias Aebischer (from the SP party/Berne) for an import ban on products obtained by cruelty to animals by 37 to 4 votes. The Stiftung für das Tier im Recht (TIR) is deeply disappointed that so little emphasis is put on animal welfare. November 29, 2017 The National Council approved the proposal of its member Matthias Aebischer for a general ban on the import of products that have been manufactured in a cruel m...


  • 2022 05 30 Council of States says no to a ban on imports of fur and hunting trophies: an incredibly sad day for TIR and animal welfare

    Council of States says no to a ban on imports of fur and hunting trophies: an incredibly sad day for TIR and animal welfare Once again, the Council of States has rejected long overdue animal welfare reforms after a promising political process. Yet again, the small chamber demonstrated its indifference to protecting the weakest members of society, while consistently favoring economic goals. The Stiftung für das Tier im Recht (Foundation for the Animal in the Law; TIR) draws a bleak conclusion for the protection of animals. May 30, 2022 After several postponements, the Council of States decided ...
