Thank you for taking action to demand the EU ban the live export of animals – a brutal and tragic trade.
Now will you share this campaign with people you know, so that they also call on the EU to ban live export?
By sharing this campaign, you’ll help to show the EU just how many people stand behind it. We’re so much stronger when we work together.
Tragic and brutal journeys
Hi, 200,000 cows, sheep, and other farmed animals crowded and packed together in sweltering conditions, starved to death on ships as their food ran out. They died a few months ago after waiting for the Suez Canal to reopen. Most of them came from Europe. All of this is due to the live export trade. Animals inflicted unimaginable suffering crammed into ships and sent around the world, usually just to be slaughtered for meat and leather on arrival.

As momentum builds for a global ban, the EU is investigating current rules on live export that could lead to an effective ban. But this won’t happen without mass public pressure. That’s why today, with over 100 other organisations like Compassion in World Farming and Four Paws International, we’re launching one of the largest petitions against live transport ever!
