Animals\' Angels - wir sind bei den Tieren | we are there with the animals

Here you will find a collection of films about the activities and missions of the Animals’ Angels ‘Teams’, as well as television and cinema spots that were produced free of charge by agencies that support our work.

Every third cow in Germany is kept in tether husbandry. The cows spend their life tied to one spot; day and night, month after month, year after year. This film shows 5 minutes of the life of "dairy" cows in a German tie-stall. Please take 5 minutes of your time, watch the film and let it sink in. Try to imagine how it must be to spend a whole life-time in this barn.
ANIMALS’ ANGELS urgently requests an immediate ban of this out-dated and cruel husbandry system.
