Take action: tell the EU to finish the job and deliver ambitious laws for animals! The EU Commission promised to overhaul EU animal welfare laws and phase out cages after 1.4 million backed the End the Cage Age European Citizens' Initiative. Yet nothing has changed!

Only one greyhound was not caught up in this about an hour ago at Horsham Victoria.
Don't seem to be any major injuries found during initial vet exams but of course many serious injuries only later become apparent away from the track.

Notorious โhorse dealerโ caught illegally shooting ex-racehorses on his Victorian property.
The footage is incredibly distressing and I won't share here. If you want to watch and bear witness to the truth, the video is here:
farmtransparency.org/campaigโฆ
farmtransparency.org/media-rโฆ
"Farm Transparency Project has published new footage, captured last month using drones and hidden cameras, revealing infamous horse dealer Peter Loffel illegally shooting ex-racehorses (thoroughbreds and standardbreds) on his property at 140 Toolamba Road in Mooroopna, Victoria"
"Horses identified as former flat and harness racers are filmed being shot in a small pen, while those around them panic and attempt to escape. One horse, an ex-racing thoroughbred identified as Lady Poppy, attempted to stand and escape after being shot in the head. She was eventually shot again and lay struggling on the ground as she died."
"Another, an unidentified standardbred, managed to stand after being shot the first time. He crawled along the floor of the pen and struggled to his feet. Loffel then shot him again, bringing him to his knees but still not ending his life. He continued to struggle for two more shots until eventually falling still"
A horse dies for racing every 2.2 days.

Rocco vs. the treat ball. Things are getting personal. ๐ป๐
He knows how to get his snacks, but patience isn't his strong suit!

All jokes aside, enrichment helps rescued bears practise their natural foraging skills. ๐๐พ

The farms we imagine. The reality we rarely see. ๐ท
Our Global CEO @philip_ciwf explores why our picture-book view of farming can be a long way from reality in his latest article for The Scotsman.

BREAKING: Horses violently hit in the face & jabbed with rods while being forced onto trucks at an Alberta feedlot. This is yet another example of cruelty in Canadaโs rotten live horse export industry. ACT NOW: bit.ly/4ihjX2o

Replying to @susanamet
"According to the official Stewards Report, 2yo Diosa Afrodita was eased out of her race and found to be lame at Rockhampton on 19/6/2026. However, when CPR later followed up on her status, it became clear
that her injury was more than lameness. She had fractured her front leg and was subsequently killed on the same day she was taken off the track"

"6yo Pondalowie suffered a nasty fall during the 2026 Derby Day festivities yesterday. 3yo Glenorchy bled from his lungs. 3yo Meet The Prince was found to be suffering from a throat condition. Two horses suffered lacerations, one horse was lame, and another was struggling to recover after the race. None of these horses were given a choice if they wanted to participate or not"
"And then there was the trainer who was found in possession of two syringes containing a drug designed to increase his horsesโ bloodโs oxygen carrying capacity, which significantly boosts their endurance. Both his horses were scratched from the race"

Nowra NSW last night, two fractured right hocks.
Paint the Rust, not yet 2 years old. And Bellwood, one of the greyhounds recently shipped from New Zealand. Both ran all the way to the end on their broken bones.
These images provide further important evidence of a pattern of abuse and suffering inflicted on greyhounds in NSW on a daily basis. These images are further evidence of unsafe NSW tracks and the serious risks faced by greyhounds when running on these tracks.
GRNSW claims to prioritise animal welfare. These images, and many others like them, do not support those claims.

Leaving unweaned calves without food for more than 24 hours is not good animal welfare. @Irish_Ferries are in denial.

Oh the irony @Irish_Ferries has been served legal notices over unweaned calf welfare, yet they carry out this cruel trade on a flagship vessel named the W.B. Yeats. Yeats famously despised sacrificing morals for a 'greasy till'. Heโd condemn his legacy being used as a cover for industrial cruelty ๐ขโ

We love seeing Stiorra the sheep enjoy all the love & pampering she deserves! ๐
Sheep are affectionate, intelligent individuals with their own personalities, & they deserve to be treated with kindness.
