Scotland: Call For CCTV To Be Installed In All Slaughterhouses. Take Action Now.
Posted on July 18, 2017 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)
Do you know what really goes on behind the closed doors of Scotland’s 35 slaughterhouses?
We certainly don’t! But we do know that welfare standards are breached time and time again, and Animal Aid’s incredible investigative work has uncovered extraordinary brutality.
I’ll be honest with you. I don’t like the idea of slaughterhouses full stop. But for as long as they are here, we have to do what we can to protect the animals from cruelty. That’s why I’m asking you to sign a petition to the Scottish Parliament calling for the introduction of mandatory CCTV monitoring in all Scottish abattoirs, covering all the key areas, that is accessible by independent experts.
| Take action now |
So how bad is the problem? Animal Aid’s investigations show the horrifying cruelty in English abattoirs, and there is nothing to suggest that the situation in Scotland is better.
Data released by Food Standards Scotland in April shows over 700 breaches of animal welfare took place between 1 May 2015 and 31 January 2017, with 176 breaches happening inside abattoirs.
Some of the breaches included:
-
Animals being abused by workers – One worker was seen kicking a sheep and another pushing and dragging a pig by its tail.
-
Injured animals – Hundreds of animals were found bruised, injured, wounded or with broken bones.
-
Animals slaughtered while heavily pregnant – 130 animals were killed in the later stages of pregnancy.
-
Animals repeatedly stunned before killed – 45 incidents happened where multiple or inadequate stunning took place or where procedures didn’t work.
This shows us that clearly something is not working and that’s why we want to bring transparency to Scotland’s abattoirs. If you agree, then please sign this petition calling for the Scottish Parliament to introduce mandatory CCTV.
We have launched this petition in association with activists who successfully changed SNP policy in support of CCTV in slaughterhouses. This happened last September and we have now agreed that we need to jointly put the pressure on to see this party policy made Government policy.
The Scottish Government, like the rest of the UK, recommends the installation of CCTV as best practice. However, France has now taken the lead in the EU by announcing CCTV will be compulsory in all French slaughterhouses from 2018. If France can do it, then surely Scotland can too.
Take Action Now!
Thanks for your support.
Thanks, Sarah

Netting and Plastic – When It Is Not Disposed Of Properly – Death To Innocent Wildlife.
Posted on July 16, 2017 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)
Breaking 16/7/17
SAV Comment – What fantastic news ! – biodegradable 6 pack can rings that breaks down in the water AND then can be used a food for turtles etc – Superb !
Now it is a case of getting the word out for others to follow this super approach to marine conservation.
A Brewery Has Created Biodegradable 6-Pack Rings That Will Feed Marine Life Instead Of Killing Them:
http://www.trendingly.com/saltwater-brewery/2
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YG9gUJMGyw
Most of these plastic six-pack rings end up in our oceans and pose a serious threat to wildlife. Together with Saltwater Brewery, a small craft beer brand in Florida whose primary target are surfers fishermen and people who love the sea, we decided to tackle the issue head on and make a statement for the whole beer industry to follow.
We ideated, designed, prototyped and manufactured Edible Six Pack Rings.
A six-pack packaging design that instead of killing animals, feeds them.
———————————————————————————-
So think, and take the bloody stuff home with you. Dispose of it correctly – Do not simply dump in the sea or on the beach !
Cut plastic can holders so they can never become trapped around the bodies of young turtles when out at sea, deforming them as they grow. See some pictures below which shows what happens when they are NOT CUT in all places.

I was diving in the Malaysian’s water off Pulau Tioman. My buddy spotted this drift-net with a trapped turtle. After photographing it, we call all the other divers in to cut up the nets and disposed it when we get back on land. The net measured up to about 30m in length. Sad to say the turtle did not make it.

Serbia: Azra Has A Cancer, But Needs Funds To Sort It – Please Help – See Below.
Posted on July 15, 2017 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)
PLEASE read the story about Azra, so heartbreaking. Azra doesn’t deserve this, so PLEASE anyone who might help her to continue the therapy, do it!
We have to win this battle together!
SHARE EVERYONE PLEASE!
The Story
This is Azra, the beautiful girl whose ‘owner’ obviously does not care too much about her because he allowed her to come to this situation, and the situation is following: the carcinoma of the vagina whose type we still do not know because it requires a departure to vet clinic in Belgrade, after the suggestions of the veterinarians in Bor where Azra lives, and the pathohistology has to be done.
What the veterinarian suggests is a quality surgery of an experienced surgeon, which again requires a visit to Belgrade, and for which there is no money.
Jovan Joja Cvetkovic took over the dog as soon as he found out about her, since ‘the owner’ does not want to do anything about her, moreover, after her cancer appeared he completely abandoned her and left her on her own.
I am asking you that we all together help Joja and AZRA to win this battle, not to give up on her without even trying. At least we owe it to Azra and him. By going to Belgrade and hopefully being operated, Azra has already begun receiving therapy in Bor with cytostatics, which costs a lot.
HELP for paying the treatment and Azra’s departure to Belgrade and eventual surgeries is more than welcome!
It is going to be hard and expensive according to vet, but AZRA deserves to live!
THANK YOU!

England: Act Now To Support The Campaign To CLOSE DOWN Hogwood Pig Farm.
Posted on July 15, 2017 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)
Hogwood Farm Update
h
Watch the vigil for pigs at Hogwood Farm
Dear Mark
Our petition to close down Hogwood Farm needs your help. With over 19,000 signatures so far, we’ve made some great progress – but we need more if we’re going to succeed in getting it closed down.
On Monday, Viva! founder & director Juliet Gellatley was joined by 60 people for a peaceful vigil outside the Warwickshire farm where horrendous conditions were filmed by Viva! Campaigns.
The investigation and vigil have been covered in national and local media, leading to growing condemnation and public support. Juliet repeated her calls for the farm to be shut down. If you haven’t already, please sign the petition to make the authorities take action!
After the vigil, Juliet made a grisly discovery of dumped pig remains in a wood near the farm, on land belonging to the owner. We have reported this to the authorities and are demanding that they take action to stop this practice.
What can you do to help?
We need your support to help us end this war on animals. Thank you to all everyone who has signed the petition so far. If you haven’t signed yet, we desperately need you to help us end this suffering. Please sign the petition now and help us save the pigs at this horror farm.
Sign the petition

Australia: Petition – Stop The Government Forcing Animal Rescue Charity To Pay $300,000 For Road Upgrades.
Posted on July 14, 2017 by Serbian Animals Voice (SAV)
This week our good friends at Farm Animal Rescue were forced to go public with a petition calling on the Queensland Government to abandon its plans to force the charity to pay $300,000 for road upgrades!
Farm Animal Rescue (FAR) is a registered charity and sanctuary for animals that have been rescued from starvation, danger, and abuse. We can’t speak highly enough of the work the team at FAR do for the animals.
The Government has made the decision to ban visitors from Farm Animal Rescue unless they spend $300,000 adding an additional lane to Dayboro Road, a highway managed by Queensland Transport and Main Roads. With the charity unable to come up with such a huge amount of money, it would mean an end to visitors like you at the sanctuary, and make the future of the sanctuary uncertain.
Please sign the petition, spread the word and keep an eye on social media for further steps you can take to help save FAR in the coming weeks!
For the animals,
Chay and the team at Animal Liberation Queensland
