CCTV at all slaughterhouses in Europe and documentation of failure stuns
Can you imagine a surgery with full consciousness, without nesthesia?
A night mare? But cruel reality for millions * of slaughter animals in Germany and across Europe!
According to the European Commission (May 2012) up to 75% of the animals experience
full conscious and painful end as (!) - Usually by machine - amputated, cut,
scalded, divided into parts, and - usually hanging upside down from hooks -
bleed to death, excruciating pain screaming.
The main reasons are chord, unskilled workers, significant deficiencies in the
stunning equipment, cost savings, revenue maximization, unrestrained greed!
These unbearable conditions present a serious breach of the German Animal
Protection and Regulation Battle of the Animal Welfare Act.
Even the butchers are into unnecessary risk: hazard level 15.2!
A constant video surveillance of all animal welfare operations, especially the
control of the actual act of killing is essential as well. Documentation and
subsequent evaluation by neutral official veterinarians To ensure the freedom
of action of the official veterinarians is essential to raise the competence of
the county to the state level. And unlike in the past, violations of the law
must be punished, and result in significant consequences.
Consumers have a right to learn, whether the meat purchased, possibly comes
from conscious slaughtered and thus unnecessarily tortured animals. Customer-oriented
and would recommend voluntary labeling (an "animal welfare label") of
best slaughterhouses with a video surveillance of the type described and
positive results.
With the support of this petition, you can help ensure that the alleged
constraint to extreme cruelty of the area-wide soil is removed. In Britain decreed
in November 2011 already half of all slaughterhouses for cattle and pigs on
video system in poultry slaughterhouses, there were already 60%. Help us that
the corresponding figure for Germany
soon possible is 100%!
