Animal Liberation Malta

08/07/2025

If people truly knew the agony and hell animals go through to end up on our plates, they would think twice before eating them.

Switzerland, at least, is taking a step toward transparency by exposing the diabolical procedures behind the animal agriculture industry. This is not the ultimate solution to ending the animal holocaust, but it's a step forward in raising awareness.

We can’t change what we refuse to see.

Switzerland’s Federal Council has introduced new legislation requiring all foods produced by animals who experienced “painful procedures” to declare this information on the label.

The Federal Council, which is the highest executive authority in the country, said that the change in labeling requirements will increase food industry transparency and empower consumers to make fully informed purchasing decisions when it comes to animal products.

Meat, eggs, and milk must now be labeled if they come from animals who experienced painful procedures without anaesthesia. These procedures include dehorning, castration, debeaking, and the removal of frogs’ legs, all common practices within factory farming. The new rules will apply to all businesses that sell the foods, including restaurants.

While the force-feeding of ducks and geese for foie gras has been banned in Switzerland for more than 40 years, the practice is permitted abroad. This new legislation will also apply to imports, and foie gras products sold in Switzerland will need to be labeled accordingly.

The new legislation has applied since July 1, 2025, with a transitional period of two years.

While raising funds for children with cancer is undoubtedly a worthy cause, it does not excuse the ongoing suffering inflicted on Malta’s birds every hunting season.

Compassion cannot be selective. You can’t claim kindness in one breath while killing vulnerable, non-human animals in another.

Organising charity events to soften public perception or distract from cruelty does not erase the violence inflicted on our wildlife, nor will it silence those who speak up for them.

If you truly believe in compassion, extend it to all beings - not just humans. That is the moral baseline.

This could also happen in Malta thanks to the government for allowing these animals into our country.

🔍 Who’s behind the "Intergroup on Sustainable Livestock Farming"?

👉 This intergroup in the European Parliament claims to promote “sustainable livestock farming,” but in reality, it's a political body serving the interests of intensive animal agriculture, helping direct millions in public funds toward factory farms.

📜 The full list of MEPs in the group includes representatives from various parties, and among them is Peter Agius, MEP from Malta, affiliated with the European People's Party (EPP).

💶 These are the politicians actively supporting systems of industrial animal exploitation — under the label of “sustainability.”

💡 Knowing who they are is the first step to holding them accountable.

They are taken from their habitat,
from mothers who scream but are silenced.

We bring them here,
dress them like children,
“educate” them in our ways and we call it love.

But it’s not love
to tear someone from their world
and name them yours.

They were never meant to be
in cages, in living rooms,
with strangers who impose rules
above their natural instincts.

The human species is the most selfish on Earth
claiming dominance,
exerting control
over those who cannot fight back.

We have not forgotten about you. We are still hopeful that you will get the freedom you deserve. We’ve been threatened, mocked, found our posters torn down and ripped up, but this will not discourage us. We will continue fighting for as long as there is hope.

Good afternoon from Valletta!
Here’s how our karrozzin drivers cope with the scorching midday heat, by taking a relaxing nap in the shade.
And the horses? Left standing still, fully harnessed, tied to their carriages, waiting for the next tourist ride to begin.

It seems the prohibited working hours are not being used to allow the horses to rest properly, but rather to give the karrozzini owners an afternoon siesta.

Please remember to send us any reports of irregularities you witness, along with photo or video evidence.
Also, make sure to write to Animal Welfare asking them to intervene (it's important to include the number plate of the carriage).

🚫 From tomorrow, July 1st to August 31st, as every year since 2019, horse-drawn carriages (karozzini) will be banned all over Malta between 1PM and 4PM due to the extreme heat.

📸 We ask you to help us monitor the situation. If you see karozzini operating outside the permitted hours, or if you witness signs of distress in the horses, please take photos or videos and send them to us.

❗️This restriction is nowhere near enough. The heat affects horses throughout the entire day, and more importantly, using animals for entertainment or tourism is fundamentally wrong, no matter the temperature.

Let’s keep exposing this cruelty until it ends, for good.
