Caso trasportatore Mariano

Wed, 17 Apr 2013 00:00:00 -0400

La Sezione di Castiglione delle Stiviere del Tribunale di Mantova ha condannato il rappresentante di un’azienda agricola a due mesi di reclusione, vietandogli di svolgere l’attività per 3 mesi. Complimenti alla Polizia Stradale di Legnago (VR) che ha effettuato i controlli permettendo di scoprire un povero vitello di alcuni mesi trasportato verso il macello in modo disumano. È ora di fermare l’abominio che ogni notte si verifica sulle strade italiane. La Sezione distaccata di Castiglione delle Stiviere del Tribunale di Mantova ha emesso un decreto di condanna a due mesi di reclusione e alla pena accessoria del divieto di svolgere l’attività per tre mesi nei confronti del rappresentante di un’azienda agricola, imputato di falso ideologico e maltrattamento di animali per aver trasportato in condizioni gravissime un vitello ammalato di alcuni mesi destinato al macello. Il 7 gennaio 2011, la Polizia Stradale di Legnago (VR) aveva fermato un camion diretto al macello Inalca di Castelvetro (MO). Durante il controllo, era stato scoperto un giovanissimo vitello in condizioni terribili. Il povero animale era allo stremo delle forze, ansimante, riverso su un fianco nei suoi stessi escrementi, incapace di deambulare destinato poi a finire nelle tavole degli italiani. La condizione delle mucche a terra, denunciata troppe volte dalle associazioni animaliste, ha purtroppo trovato l’ennesima conferma in questo vergognoso episodio. Complimenti alla Polizia Stradale di Legnago (VR) che ha permesso di portarlo alla luce. Il trasporto degli animali nei macelli deve svolgersi osservando le norme imposte dalla Comunità europea a tutela degli animali e per la sicurezza dei consumatori. I controlli negli allevamenti e nei macelli devono essere improntati alla “tolleranza zero”. Invece, oggi, sulle strade italiane si verificano vere e proprie torture nei confronti degli animali. I trasportatori e gli allevatori si fanno beffe del Regolamento comunitario n.1 del 2005, che vieta espressamente il trasporto di esemplari stremati, malati e incapaci di reggersi in piedi. La normativa esiste e deve essere fatta rispettare, i controlli devono essere ferrei e le sanzioni severe. All’inizio di aprile ho organizzato tre conferenze sul tema “Esseri senzienti, non numeri. La protezione degli animali da allevamento in Europa ” a Bologna, Trieste e Vicenza. Da quando, a gennaio 2012, sono stato nominato vice Presidente dell’Intergruppo per il Benessere degli Animali al Parlamento europeo, l’obiettivo che mi sono posto e che sto perseguendo è stato quello di lavorare affinché gli intenti dell’articolo 13 del trattato di Lisbona, che definisce gli animali “esseri senzienti”, diventino finalmente realtà in tutta Europa. testo: Andrea Zanoni - http://www.andreazanoni.it

TAKE ACTION: www.AnimalsAustralia.org/exports - See the truth behind the biggest live export tragedy in history. PAKISTAN 2012. As seen on Four Corners. Live animal export is an inherently cruel trade, which is why it is opposed by every animal protection organisation throughout the world. It continues for one reason only: profit. What might happen, if exported animals were deemed 'unfit' for human consumption and lost all of their economic value? It happened recently in Pakistan. The reality will shock you.

Ribaltamento di un camion di trasporto maiali | Eligeveganismo

Wed, 31 Oct 2012 00:00:00 -0400

Nel pomeriggio del 28 ottobre 2012, un camion di una società di trasporto di animali vivi, che trasportava circa 200 maiali per essere macellati (assassinati), è stato oggetto di un violento incidente al km. 45 della Ruta del Maipo, regione del Paine (Cile). Tragedie come questa dimostrano ancora una volta che la vita e il trattamento degli animali - di giorno in giorno o in situazioni eccezionali - è comunque sempre ingiusto, violento ed è incondizionatamente causa di sofferenza e morte.

Meat Trade: Live Horse Transport from Canada to Japan

Wed, 24 Oct 2012 00:00:00 -0400

Canadian draft horses are routinely live shipped to Japan for slaughter from the Calgary and Winnipeg International Airports. On arrival in Japan, horses are transported to a feedlot; once they reach desired weight they are slaughtered for meat. 2012 footage taken of Alberta horses being shipped live to Japan for slaughter shows horses in a feedlot being loaded with electric prods into transport trucks, transported to the Calgary International Airport and being crated in wooden crates so small they cannot stand in their natural position, in violation of Section 142 of the Health of Animals Regulations.

Esportazione vitelli - Exporting Calves to Cruelty: Ramsgate Investigation

Thu, 10 May 2012 00:00:00 -0400

In late 2011 Compassion in World Farming initiated a series of investigations into the export of live farm animals from the UK. And, in early 2012, generous donations from Compassion supporters enabled our team to continue the campaign, trailing a lorry carrying calves from the UK, through France and into Spain -- simply to be fattened for the veal trade. These young calves were loaded on a farm in the west of England and transported, over a period of almost 60 hours, to a farm in northern Spain. Find out more here: www.ciwf.org/transport

Fugas y accidentes con animales implicados

Thu, 26 Jan 2012 00:00:00 -0500

De camino al matadero, la miseria de las vidas de los animales utilizados como recursos se puede hacer evidente para parte de la población que los usa, pero que no ha visto cómo son creados y criados para hacerlos a trozos. Esta miseria es la que ha quedado patente en dos ocasiones esta semana en Catalunya. Por un lado, cuatro terneros se escaparon de la línea de la muerte antes de entrar al matadero de Girona. Y han sido los agentes rurales y los mossos d’esquadra los que, una vez capturados con somníferos, han permitido que los llevaran de nuevo al matadero pese a la gesta de su fuga que, si hubiese sido protagonizada por humanos procedentes de un campo de exterminio, hubiera sido aplaudida por la población. Por otro lado, un camión cargado con más de cinco mil pollos volcó en Tortosa. El tráiler que trasladaba los animales hacia el matadero de Alicante perdió el control en una rotonda y salió de la carretera. El camionero salió ileso, pero muchos de los pollos (no se ha cuantificado cuántos) murieron chafados y los que pudieron salir de las jaulas fueron enjaulados de nuevo para seguir su camino al matadero. Acabando una vida de explotación para ser convertidos en productos.

On Tuesday, July 12, 2011 at about 2pm, a local resident - Teresa - witnessed pigs that were very hot, dehydrated and wounded, including several pigs with bloody snouts in one transport truck. She was shocked to see about 10 transport trucks waiting in line in the hot sun to be unloaded at Toronto's Quality Meat Packers, including three trucks waiting on Wellington Street West. Distressed by what she witnessed, she ran into the plant and asked to speak to the manager. She demanded that they address the crisis. She was asked to leave.Teresa texted her friends and various NGOs and through social media Toronto Pig Save was informed at about 4pm. We immediately visited the site.The footage in this video is of one transport truck waiting in line at about 4 pm; most of the trucks had left the site already. The pigs are clearly in distress - extremely hot, dehydrated, overcrowded, and many with wounds, including one with an open eye wound. The pigs are very vocal communicating to each other and perhaps to us as well, crying for help.Video footage: Anita KrajncPhoto stills: Teresa AscencaoToronto Pig SavePlease visit our website at: www.torontopigsave.wordpress.com

American Horse Slaughter Prevention Act

Pigs transported in extreme heat sent to Quality Meat Packers' slaughterhouse

Mon, 05 Sep 2011 00:00:00 -0400

Toronto Pig Save releases footage of pigs transported in extreme heat of July 21 and sent to "kill floor" at Quality Meat Packers the next morning This video contains footage of activists taking temperatures with a digital thermometer inside pig transport trucks stopping at the long lights at Lakeshore and Strachan (near the Exhibition's Prince's Gates) during Thursday July 21, 2011's heat wave. On Thursday, Toronto experienced "record hot temperatures" which hit 38 degrees Celsius and well over 40 with the humidity index. If being in the sun is unbearable, imagine what it is like to be a pig stuck in a transport truck in crowded conditions, dehydrated with no water for the entire trip, and standing or lying on feces, which release ammonia fumes and lacerate the lungs. Later that same afternoon, activist then held a protest at Toronto's Quality Meat Packers on 677 Wellington Street West, where pigs are unloaded with rattle paddles and electric prods. The video also contains undercover footage of the "kill floor" at Quality Meat Packers taken at 6 a.m. on Friday, July 22 - the day after the heat wave. Many of the suffering pigs on the transport trucks are likely in this footage, which shows pigs being forced into a carbon dioxide gas chamber with hard-wired electric prods. A couple of meters away, they come out stunned from a gondola-like structure and then have one of their legs shackled as they are led upside down up a shaft - later to be bled and "butchered." The mission of Toronto Pig Save is to "make slaughterhouses have glass walls," including QMP, Toronto's downtown pig slaughterhouse. QMP kills 6,000 - 7,000 pigs a day (up to 35,000 pigs a week). This efficient industrialization of mass killings is grossly unjust for the pigs and the workers alike. Toronto Pig Save is an animal rights, pro-labour group in support of a just transition towards a food economy that is organic, local, whole-grain, and plant-based - that is, vegan.

Namibia to South Africa - Goats transported for 36hours

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 00:00:00 -0500

DID YOU KNOW? The stress of transit commonly brings on Pasturella, a respiratory disease that causes goats to cough violently before they die. TAKE ACTION: www.handlewithcare.tv - Every week as many as 15,000 goats are packed into trucks to make the 2,300 kilometre journey from Namibia to South Africa. They suffer the full 36-hour journey without anything to eat or drink, and may have lacked food, water or shelter for many hours before being loaded. With searing temperatures regularly exceeding 40 centigrade, many animals die from dehydration. Others die from respiratory diseases. They remain packed against the live animals until unloading. Those that survive the journey may have sustained serious injuries as a result of poor driving or have been blinded by dust from the roads. It doesn't have to be like this. Across Africa, live transportation should be replaced with a trade in chilled or frozen meat from animals humanely slaughtered close to home. National rules for the transport and handling of animals should be developed, inspired by World Organisation for Animal Health guidelines.

C'est vous les responsables de ces horreurs, oui vous les mangeurs de viande. Inutile de vous apitoyer sur le triste sort de ces animaux si vous les retrouvez dans votre assiette sans que cela ne vous émeuve. Aimer les animaux c'est commencer par ne pas les manger, c'est logique non ?Ce film de la Protection mondiale des animaux de ferme montre : - les souffrances considérables infligées aux moutons exportés de France et du Royaume-Uni vers l'Italie et la Grèce - l'exportation de Pologne et de Lituanie de chevaux destinés à être abattus dans l'UE, au cours de voyages qui, de façon routinière, présentent des infractions à la Directive transport - les subventions massives - payées avec l'argent des contribuables - qui encouragent le plus cruel commerce d'animaux de lUE : l'exportation de bovins de France, d'Irlande ou d'Allemagne vers le Moyen Orient pour y être abattus - des atteintes flagrantes à la Directive de l'UE sur l'abattage, en France et en Grèce.Chaque année des millions de moutons, de cochons et de bovins sont transportés à travers l'Europe. Ces voyages durent souvent plus de 40 ou de 50 heures.Durant ces transports, les animaux doivent endurer des douleurs et des souffrances insupportables. Ils sont transportés dans des camions bondés qui, souvent, ne répondent pas aux normes ni aux besoins de confort des animaux pour être soit abattus à leur arrivée soit engraissés. La plupart du temps, les animaux ne reçoivent pas à boire, à manger et ils ne bénéficient pas de moments de repos. Les animaux souffrent d'épuisement, de déshydratation et de stress profond. Certains halètent et essayent désespérément d'avoir de l'air.D'autres sont blessés ou s'effondrent sur le plancher du camion où ils seront ensuite écrasés par les autres victimes. Beaucoup d'animaux meurent avant d'arriver à destination d'épuisement, de la chaleur, du manque d'eau ou de l'absence d'une ventilation adaptée. Le réalisateur de documentaire Mannfred Karreman témoignait encore en 2005 que des bovins, gravement blessés, étaient hissés du camion par leurs pattes cassées. Chaque année, l'Union européenne exporte ainsi 200 000 bovins vivants vers des abattoirs du Moyen-Orient où les animaux sont égorgés sans être étourdis et dans les pires conditions. Les plus grands exportateurs sont l'Allemagne, la France et l'Irlande. En 2004, les transports de bétail ont bénéficié de 52 millions € de subsides de l'Europe. http://www.pmaf.org/http://www.animals-angels.de/index.php

Thu, 07 May 2009 00:00:00 -0400

This is a video of a 2005 investigation of a US farm animal transportation done by Compassion Over Killing. Unfortunately, this is not an isolated case. Animals being transported to slaughterhouses are crammed tightly into trucks, and travel for more than 28 hours without food, water or rest. They are exposed to harsh weather, and die from heat exhaustion or freeze to death -- often being frozen to the side of the truck -- before even making it to the slaughterhouse. These animals are treated as nothing more than money gaining products from the time they are born, during transport, and when they are slaughtered. They have done harm to no one, and yet are given no mercy. Go to tryveg.com and cok.net to learn more about animals who are raised for food and the best way you can help them.

I viaggi della sofferenza - Spagna - Italia

Tue, 28 Apr 2009 00:00:00 -0400

Ogni anno migliaia di cavalli vengono trasportati vivi dalla Spagna e dall'Europa Orientale verso l'Italia meridionale per essere macellati, con un viaggio di 36-46 ore. Ai cavalli vengono negati riposo, cibo e acqua sufficienti durante il viaggio, infrangendo le norme dell’Unione Europea destinate a proteggerli. Gli animali sono sottoposti a sofferenze continue a causa del sovraffollamento e a temperature roventi che spesso superano i 40° C. Tali condizioni provocano uno stress estremo a questi animali così sensibili, durante le loro ultime ore di vita. Il lungo viaggio per la macellazione è inutilmente crudele. I cavalli subiscono tutto questo per un motivo: se macellati in Italia, la loro carne può essere ingannevolmente venduta ai consumatori come di origine "tradizionalmente italiana". Le nazioni devono applicare le norme UE sul trasporto degli animali vivi per sostenere l’esistente commercio più pietoso di carne refrigerata o congelata, che costituisce già una fetta significativa del mercato della carne di cavallo in Italia.

Sun, 12 Apr 2009 00:00:00 -0400

In July 2005, COK investigators traveled throughout the United States to document the conditions endured by farmed animals shipped across the country on trucks and trailers. Our investigators found that, in many cases, farmed animals are overcrowded onto vehicles and moved long distances—often exceeding 28 hours—without food, water to drink, rest, or adequate protection from the elements. As a result of such hardships, an untold number suffer in-transit injuries, illnesses, stress and even death.

Lo sapevate?

Fri, 10 Apr 2009 00:00:00 -0400

I trasporti di animali vivi provocano indicibili sofferenze: ogni settimana, centinaia di milioni di animali da allevamento devono sopportare viaggi della durata di ore, giorni, settimane o mesi, in condizioni drammatiche per poi finire macellati. Stress, esaurimento, fame, sete, temperature estreme, condizioni impossibili, sono tutte incredibili sofferenze che devono sopportare gli animali trasportati vivi in tutto il mondo. Gli animali soffrono terribili lesioni, le malattie si diffondono, e molti muoiono prima di raggiungere la loro destinazione.

Trasporto di animali verso l'Italia

Thu, 09 Apr 2009 00:00:00 -0400

Video-documentario, distribuito in tutto il mondo dalla Coalizione internazionale Handle with Care, racconta il viaggio Spagna-Italia di un gruppo di cavalli su camion per 36-46 ore, quasi sempre senza riposo, senza cibo e acqua adeguati, a temperature che d’estate superano i 40 gradi. Durante il viaggio gli animali non vengono mai fatti scendere e rifocillati, anche se le norme in materia prevedono che che ciò avvenga almeno ogni 24 ore. I cavalli sono stipati su camion in spazi angusti dove gli animali che cadono a terra sfiniti vengono calpestati dagli altri che condividono i pochi metri quadrati del pianale. I capi dovrebbero per legge viaggiare in box individuali ma questo non avviene nella realtà. Secondo la Fao il trasporto su lunghe distanze è un facile veicolo di malattie. Quando gli animali sono stipati su un camion, bastano 30 minuti per far passare dal 18 al 46% il livello salmonella negli escrementi. E all'arrivo dopo un viaggio di questo genere, il numero di animali infetti passa dal 6 all'89% Questo è l'ultimo tragitto che compiono prima di finire trasformati nelle vostre bistecche.

Trasporto internazionale di cavalli

Thu, 09 Apr 2009 00:00:00 -0400

Con 170mila cavalli macellati ogni anno, l’Italia detiene il negativo primato del più alto consumo europeo di carni equine. La normativa comunitaria prevede che i cavalli viaggino in box singoli e possano riposare, avere cibo e acqua sufficienti, ma essa viene regolarmente ignorata. In Italia gli animali arrivano soprattutto da Spagna ed Est Europa (Lituania, Romania e Polonia). Il consumo di carne di cavallo si concentra in Italia in Puglia (32% del totale nazionale), Lombardia (14,3%), Piemonte (10,8%), Emilia Romagna (9,2%), Veneto (7,6%), Lazio (5,5%). Il consumo procapite è di quasi 1 kg.
