Current Actions and Campaigns
The New Penal Code, which we helped create with our suggestions, came into force this year, making killing animals a punishable criminal offense.
We made a list of 30 cases of animal abuse in Croatia in 2012 which prove there is a need for severe prison sentences for animal abusers.
Veterinary
inspectors, who last year killed 46 healthy animals
in Zagreb shelters and homes of their adopters, are
suing
us for mental distress.
In collaboration with Cakovec Animal Shelter we invited animal friends in Croatia to write their stories which will be published in a short story book.
A popular Croatian singer, Boris Novkovic, supported our campaign "For Croatia without Fur" by joining our project "Trim Fur Hurts Equally."
During
the current milk affair in Croatia where posinous substances
have been found in the milk supply, we pointed out the
entire
truth about the diary industry.
The
Croatian government approved amendments
to the Animal Protection Act, but the Ministry of
Agriculture rejected all our proposals for amendments.
Thus, the Act has become flawed.
