AnimaList No. 86

Farm animals are just as interesting and intelligent as the dogs and cats who we know a bit better… Yet they are treated by the meat industry as though they are inanimate objects with no feelings or personalities.’ Emily Deschanel


Vegetarian Tourists do not Eat Fish!

On the stalls in Rijeka, Zadar and Biograd we promoted our first vegan cookbook Mljac and organized vegan tastings in order to point out the poor veg offer in Croatia. The action was held as part of the Grundtvig Project and in collaboration with FARM – Farm Animal Rights Movement.


Japan Dolphin Day

We marked Japan Dolphin Day by holding an evening public projection of ‘The Cove’ documentary in Zagreb. The all-day stall in Rijeka was also dedicated to this international dolphin day.


Dog Killers Should not Adopt Animals!

Because of breaking of the Animal Protection Act in the Veterinary Station Vetam and illegal killing of animals, we asked for the cancellation of a contract between the City of Osijek and Vetam. We also sent a letter to all inspectors because of illegal killing of animals on demand of owners, asking them to comply with the Animal Protection Act.


Renata Sopek in the ‘Green Monday’ Campaign

Renata Sopek, a famous Croatian television host and a promotor of fitness, healthy diet and lilfestyle, joined the ‘Green Monday’ campaign. The goal of the campaign is to help all of us improve our health and the health of our environment by switching to a plant based diet at least one day a week.


Chew the Veggie Challenge!

On the occasion of World Vegetarian Day we launched the Veggie Challenge! and invited people to go vegetarian or vegan before our ZeGeVege Festival. The Croatian singer Lea Deklava was the first to join the Veggie Challenge.
