Seven Danish parties, from far left to free-market right, now back a ban on fast-growing “turbo chickens.” That’s 88 of 179 seats, just short of a majority.
This means that Denmark could become the first country to ban turbo chickens by law, affecting around 120 million animals every year. 🐔

A huge congratulations to our #FurFreeAlliance coalition partner, @Anima_Int for 26 years of campaigning to end mink farming! Last Friday, the Danish government confirmed it will not seek an exemption from the EU prohibition on keeping and breeding mink. ⬇️
🚨 VICTORY: Mink farming is ending in Denmark! 🇩🇰
Denmark was once the world’s top mink fur producer. Today, its government confirmed the EU ban on mink farming will apply in full.
We’ve fought for this for 26 years. Poland banned all fur farming last year. EU, you’re next 🩵
To clarify: this is the EU’s mink ban, not a national ban on all fur farming. In 2025, the EU listed the American mink as an invasive species, banning mink farming from August 2027.
Countries can apply for an exemption to keep farms open. Denmark won’t, so its farms will close.

Right now, @MKorzeniak speaking at @CAREconfEU about how we made the ban on fur farming in Poland happen.
Animal advocacy is often perceived as a left-wing movement but to make changes for animals possible, we need allies from across the political spectrum. Our fur ban campaign in Poland is a case in point.
For the 11th time, we've opened the doors to the Conference on Animal Rights in Europe 💪🏻 Ahead of us are four days of talks, workshops, and connection with animal advocates from around the world.
We kicked things off with our Speed Meetings and Career Fair. The main program starts tomorrow with a keynote by Tobias Leenaert. Over 600 animal advocates will gather to learn and grow together, and help the movement grow stronger.
For more information and updates from the conference, follow @CAREconfEU

We’re reminding the European Commission of the promises it made! 🐔
Exactly 5 years ago, on June 30, 2021, the European Commission approved the #EndTheCageAge citizens’ initiative and declared that it would phase out cages for farmed animals across the EU.
The Commission announced at the time that new regulations would be proposed by the end of 2023. Despite this, no proposal has been presented to this day, and millions of animals continue to suffer in cramped cages.
On the fifth anniversary of this promise, we gathered outside the European Commission building, where, together with our #EndTheCageAge coalition partners and Members of the European Parliament, we called on the Commission to take action.
Enough waiting. It’s time to listen to the voice of the people and end the cage age! ✊🏻
5 years ago to the day, the @EUComission announced that it will propose new animal welfare legislation banning cages for farmed animals by the end of 2023.
3 years after this deadline and with a new 2026 deadline fast approaching, the commitment remains unfulfilled. Millions of animals and EU citizens are still waiting.

For years, animal welfare campaigners and abolitionists were thought of as two opposing camps in animal advocacy. The latest @sandcastlesblog essay traces how this started to change.
What happens when advocates drop this false dichotomy? And what should we focus on instead? ⬇️

Bartek is an Investigation Specialist at Anima International. But not long ago, he was on a very different path — studying physics, hoping to work on climate change.
After graduating, he made a different choice: to work full-time for farmed animals.
