🚨 New Danish agriculture agreement hailed as a “historic” ignores the welfare of millions of animals https://t.co/7HWS7RtsYD
The agreement is based on the expectation that productivity will increase, with a demand for higher milk yields and more piglets per sow.
This will further exacerbate the suffering of animals confined to cramped and inadequate conditions. 💔

@MariaRorvang@gmw_hodgson Conferences and a couple of seminars, but not trained in ethology. The past OL was criticised for horses with such eyes and swishing tails while held in hyperflexion and sometimes with blue tongues, so great job of someone’s teaches us what to be alert for. Maybe with drawings.👏🏻
