Take Action for Cows and Bulls

Cows and bulls are intelligent and emotional animals with unique personalities. Some are very quick learners, some are bold and adventurous, and others are shy. But what they all have in common is the ability to feel pain and fear, just as humans do.

Will You Help Them?

Right now, cows are being exploited all over the world for their flesh, skin, and bodily fluids, and thousands of bulls are killed each year in bullrings.

Spare Cows in Ireland a Voyage of Despair

Dear Minister: I was deeply alarmed to learn that animals are subjected to immense and prolonged suffering during live export from Ireland to other EU countries and beyond, including China. Now that Great Britain has banned the live export of animals, please follow suit by ending all live exports from Ireland. Transporting pigs halfway around the world to be used as breeding machines in China – where there are no laws to protect animals on farms – causes the animals immense suffering. Further to animal welfare concerns, flying animals thousands of miles contributes to the climate catastrophe that others are working hard to mitigate and risks spreading disease, which could even cause the next pandemic. In 2022, over 150,000 calves between 15 and 21 days old were forced to make the long, harrowing journey from Ireland to mainland Europe, and more than 9,000 cows were exported from Ireland to countries including Algeria, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, and Turkey. Reports have shown that animals transported within the EU and beyond are forced to endure temperatures of up to 41.5 degrees, sometimes for days at a time. They commonly exhibit signs of exhaustion, and if they even reach their destination alive, they’ll likely be slaughtered by methods illegal in Ireland. Live export is cruel, and public opinion is against it. Please do the right thing for animals and end all live export from Ireland.

Calves Are Torn Away From Their Mothers for Dairy

In the dairy industry, newborn calves are taken away from their mothers shortly after birth so that the milk meant for them can be bought and consumed by humans. Refuse to be part of a system that exploits animals and perpetuates speciesism – take our vegan pledge.
