The ruling follows a lawsuit filed by JBS which exposed the company’s lack of commitment to the environment, climate and animal welfare.
Possibly our flag should show:
The judge confirmed that the protests were legitimate, peaceful and based on widely known issues linked to JBS’s industrial livestock production chain. So often in the past, we have seen these rich super companies think they have the right to win over the smaller boys with their financial threats. Well now JBS has lost = and rightly !
In 2024/2025 the Animal Recovery Mission – ARM – launched 2 new undercover investigations into Arizona’s main supplying dairy farms for COCA COLA OWNED ‘FairLife milk’.
Coke and FairLife promised reform after ARM exposed the cruelty in 2019 and 2023 investigations. THEY LIED as you can see in the video.

The Problem – you are not going to like what you see here about the suffering of animals, but in order to make positive changes for their future, you have to know the current situation and their suffering / how they are abused first – https://www.essereanimali.org/en/the-problem/
As our common international friends – working together to make positive changes for suffering animals of this world, we hope you have obtained a lot more information from the work of Essere Animali.
A lot of people simply wish to ignore the suffering of fish – but as seen here; and like the majority of most intensively reared farmed animals today, they, fish, are often raised and slaughtered in the most barbaric ways. It is hoped that by viewing the video below, views will change. The silent screams.
A new investigation is undertaken by Anima Naturalis, who undertake their work in Spain and Latin America, https://www.animanaturalis.org/en have revealed the immense suffering of Rainbow Trout at Spanish aquaculture facilities.
Spain is the largest producer of farmed fish in the EU; accounting for over 23% from figures obtained in 2023. An estimated 254 Million fish are raised and slaughtered EVER YEAR in the country.
Spain’s most farmed species is the Rainbow Trout, which accounts for around 30 Million animals per year.
With the support of photojournalist Aitor Garmendia and video photographer Linas Korta; the investigation https://www.fishfactory.org/es captures:
Extreme overcrowding, with fish forced to swim in waste filled water; struggling for space and oxygen;
Diseased and injured fish, suffering torn fins, gill damage and friction injuries caused by rough handling and suction machines.
Brutal slaughter methods; including the widespread use of thermal shock – submerging live fish into ice or ice chilled waters for up to 90 minutes; causing prolonger consciousness, hypothermia and suffocation.
Ineffective electrical stunning – resulting in fish being eviscerated alive; which is a clear breach of existing EU rules when it comas to ‘avoidable suffering’.
Exacerbated stress during transport including poor water quality, lack of oxygen, and jostling during both loading and unloading make the fishes final life stage an especially traumatic experience..
These acts of cruelty clearly goes against the EU Directive which protects farm animals; including fish – https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dir/1998/58/oj/eng and which obliges Member States to ensure that farmed animals ARE NOT caused ant unnecessary pain, injury or suffering.
The situation here clearly shows that both stronger EU and national legislation is required.
AN’s campaign incudes a citizens petition https://www.fishfactory.org/es urging the EU to grant fish the legal protection they urgently need. Pleas sign it, and then pass the link to others – thank you.
The AN investigation coincides with the EU Commissions drafting of the first Code of Good Practice on Fish Welfare which serves as a practical document for aquaculture producers and the best practices for fish welfare. This is applicable across different life stages and production methods. This Code aims to fulfill the EU Strategic Aquaculture Guidelines strategy for 2030; https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dir/1998/58/oj/eng ensuring that aquaculture progresses in a sustainable and ethical way within the EU.
This year alone, 140,000 unweaned calves have been transported on the route between Ireland and France.
This is a journey that under normal circumstances takes around 18 hours; which breaches EU regulations as the calves ARE NOT fed a milk replacer as required. If weathers conditions are bad, then the journey can be even longer.
These very vulnerable calves, deprived of the milk from the mothers they will never see again, experience hunger, overcrowding, exhaustion and stress on these lengthy journeys. Following these sea journeys, their suffering continues as they are shipped on lengthy road journeys to the Netherlands, Spain, Italy and Poland.

There is an EU Regulation that requires the unweaned calves that travel from Ireland to France; and deprived of their natural mothers milk; should be fed with a milk substitute. THIS IS NOT HAPPENING, meaning that EU rules are being BREACHED by these ferry companies.
The EU Commission also has the view that the shipment of the unweaned calves from Ireland to France BREACHES REGULATIONS.
Ask the ferry companies involved with this trade TO STOP NOW – they are Brittainy Ferries, Irish Ferries and Stena Line; all involved in these shipments of suffering. For the calves; please take action NOW – https://action.ciwf.org.uk/page/172354/action/2
We all worked together for the UK live animals export ban in 2024; and we will win this also with your help and support – Thank You.
