📢 Not only has Brittany Ferries resumed live exports, it's now transporting unweaned calves. They are just weeks old & separated from their mothers.
The European Commission says this is in breach of EU law, which states they must be fed every 19 hours. @ec.europa.eu must act now to #BanLiveExports

Mexico just put animal welfare into its national constitution
These reforms are a big win for advocates, but what happens next will be crucial for animals rights.
