On June 14th, the international day against animal transport will take place for the 10th time. In the course of the #BanLiveExports International Awareness Day Demonstrate numerous organizations worldwide against international living animals transport by ship over long distances.
Austrian animals, especially cattle, are also regularly shipped to third countries by ship after they have been carted to a European port by truck.
At the EU level, a new animal transport regulation is currently being negotiated. However, the rights and conservative majority in the EU Parliament blocks any improvement for the animals on transports.
On these occasions, the association joins the international day of action against animal factories with protests throughout Austria and calls for a strict new EU-animal transport regulation. In Vienna, VGT activists drive: Inside with a cuddly toy animal transport bicycle trailer along the Mariahilfer Straße and inform passers-by: Inside about the problem of international life exports.
