Scandal for Schäfer: cruel cruelty to animals in Rhineland-Palatinate unveiled

unauthorized battles: Prosecutor investigated against Schäfer in Bonn

A depressing video shows a man who slaughtered a sheep in his stable without anesthesia. What this did not know: cameras had recorded every step. The animal protection organization "Aninova" from Sankt Augustin received the stressful material and initiated legal steps against the shepherd, which holds around 1,500 animals in Bonn.

The recordings made from the end of April to the end of June show the cruel abuse and the unotential battles of the animals. These shocking practices not only led to investigations by the Koblenz public prosecutor, but also to close a slaughterhouse in Hürth, in which similar violations were recorded.

The fact that such violations of the Animal Welfare Act and illegal slaughter practices occur is extremely worrying. Therefore, Jan Peifer, Managing Director of "Aninova", calls for a ban on animals for the shepherd and has switched on the ministry to draw attention to these grievances.

The introduction of legal steps against the shepherd and the closure of the slaughterhouse are important measures to raise awareness of the protection of animals and to ensure that such cruelty do not remain unpunished.
