When industry or government chooses profit 💰 over protection, animals lose. We’ve challenged dangerous decisions in the courts ⚖️, on reserves, and in farms and prisons — and we need your support to keep fighting.🤝

This month, our newsletter focuses on the “big players”. We are holding power to account. We will never compromise on the welfare of animals across the country.💙🐾

Each and every animal deserves to be treated with kindness, respect, and compassion. 💖

What would South Africa look like if we didn’t step in? That’s why we need you – for the animals.

Every farm animal deserves kindness and dignity, from their very first day to their very last. 🐮🐷🐔

Our Farm Animal Protection Unit ensures that abattoirs across the country follow the laws that protect animals from suffering and distress.💪🏽

Our Inspectors recently travelled to Limpopo to inspect six abattoirs, amongst other facilities that keep farm animals. At four of them, we found problems that were causing animals to suffer 💔, like sheep left without proper shelter 🐑, pigs without water sprinklers to keep them cool 🐖, and pigs and chickens 🐓not being stunned properly before slaughter.

Our Inspectors stepped in immediately to set things right, and we’ll be back for follow-up visits soon to make sure standards don’t slip again.👀

The welfare of an animal doesn’t end at the farm. It must carry through to the very end.🕊️

If you are someone who cares about the lives of farm animals, stand with us in protecting their welfare, from birth to death.💙

Raygun’s brutal murder shocked the nation.

Despite obstructions 🚫, threats, and silence 🤫, we pushed to ensure this horrifying case reached SAPS.👮🏽‍♀️

The school has falsely alleged that we have dropped the charges. We have not. The principal refuses to give a statement. The fate of those responsible now lies with the Public Prosecutor.

We share your outrage.🤬

We share your grief.💔

We will continue to fight.💪🏽
