A horse, a pony, a cattle and 4 goats ended up at public sale within the “Equipment-tools-raw supplies” class and within the “Agriculture, forestry and fishing equipment” class following a seizure by the Pordenone court docket. This was communicated by the Worldwide Animal Safety Group, which highlights how this process is incongruous and in battle with the present laws that protects animals, together with the brand new article 9 of the Structure and which as soon as once more requires a change of course: a modification of the laws that forestall these procedures for each animal species.

Animals as commodities

«The animal public sale is an unethical administrative process wherein animals are thought of mere objects», declares the president of Oipa, Massimo Comparotto. «We’re very removed from the transposition of the Treaty of Lisbon of 2007, which protects animals as “sentient beings”. Sending them to public sale is reprehensible.” Oipa hopes that there can be a contented ending for these unlucky animals, like that of the 57 donkeys of San Poxidenio (Modena) who grew to become well-known due to the media protection and the solidarity competitors triggered all through Italy.
