In 2010 Animals’ Angels inspected a sheep transport from Spain to Italy. The sheep travelled for longer than one day in very poor conditions: without bedding material, breathing strong ammonia gasses, touching the ceiling with their head, without sufficient space to rest and lie down, and with very bad eye and nose inflammation. Upon arrival, one sheep was euthanised by the veterinarian after suffering for nearly the entire journey, three sheep were unable to walk, one sheep was already dead and decaying. On 20th August AA receives the notification of the request to close the related investigation. Immediately AA files a deed at the competent Italian Court to oppose the request. Now we have to wait for the decision of the judge
