The author of the entry stated that the Chief Veterinary Officer informed about the detection of the disease in Zakopane, in the Tatra County, in the Małopolska Voivodeship. According to the entry, the disease was detected at the beginning of October in a farm conducting direct sales, where several species of poultry were kept. The entry also referred to the table from the Chief Veterinary Inspectorate. #weterynaria #chorobyzwierząt #Małopolska #PL (translated)

Jacek Zarzecki wrote that the Provincial Veterinary Inspectorate issued health certificates for 21 animals taken from the Łączna Zoo to the Netherlands, including a tiger. According to him, the certificates were not issued by the county veterinarian supervising the zoo, who publicly stated that he saw no grounds for taking the animals, and was subsequently removed from the proceedings. Zarzecki pointed out that the police were supposed to designate a final destination for the animals, namely a private zoo. He asked on what legal basis the inspectorate took over the duties of the county veterinarian and from which account the certificates were issued. He also expressed doubts about whether each animal was examined before loading and whether its medical documentation, which — he wrote — was taken over by the prosecutor, was checked, and whether the tiger had a valid rabies vaccination. Zarzecki emphasized that the health certificate is an official document on which the credibility of Polish exports of animals and meat is based. He stated that any possible bending of procedures in this matter could undermine trust in the documents and procedures, and if EU institutions got involved, Poland would have to explain itself. #Zwierzęta #Weterynaria #Prawo (translated)

Krzychu, addressing Patryk Słowik, wrote that the prosecutor's office arrested the owner, charged him, and restricted his freedom based on four photos that — as he pointed out — had no description or date of execution. He also claimed that activist individuals, who for three days had been starving animals in the presence of veterinarians, police, and the prosecutor's office, remained at large. #prawaosób #sprawiedliwość #zoo (translated)

Antyfarmazon wrote that he expected such a composition: alongside the Marshal of the Senate and the Deputy Marshal of the Sejm, he mentioned the Chief Veterinary Officer and Katarzyna Śliwa-Łobacz, the president of the Mondo Cane Foundation, whom he indicated as responsible for the relocation of animals. He added that the meeting was chaired by Gozdyra and encouraged familiarization with her statements on #ZOOŁączna. #ZOOŁączna https://t.co/UbmUphKSxw #Polska #Zwierzęta #Humor (translated)

Konrad Krasuski wrote that he spoke with an anonymous employee of the Veterinary Inspection about the situation around the zoo in Łączna. According to the informant, on October 2, during the Animal Rights Congress in the Senate, the Chief Veterinary Officer and representatives of the General Directorate for Environmental Protection were present, and discussions were already underway in the corridors about a future intervention at the zoo. The employee emphasized that identifying irregularities during an inspection does not automatically mean that animals must be taken away. As Krasuski reported, the informant distinguished between deficiencies that could be ordered to be corrected — such as an insufficient enclosure for a tiger — and situations where the animal's welfare is threatened enough to warrant immediate removal. He also assessed that there was no reason not to trust the District Veterinary Officer in Wałbrzych. According to the employee, the veterinarian had held this position since around 2015, had extensive knowledge, and difficult cases were consulted with him; in his opinion, animal removal was not necessary. The informant alleged that the authority of the Veterinary Inspection was being publicly undermined, and the responsibility for systemic problems fell on individual veterinarians. He claimed that after subsequent media scandals, district veterinarians were being changed, but this did not lead to real reforms. He also pointed out the lack of uniform procedures, support, specialized training related to zoo inspections, and a joint protocol for such inspections. He critically assessed the advisory teams at the Chief Veterinary Officer. As Krasuski conveyed, the employee believed that individuals associated with animal protection and social sciences had a significant impact on the discussion, while the knowledge and experience of veterinarians and field inspectors were being marginalized. He also noted that actions concerning the removal of animals from the zoo in Łączna were to be undertaken about six months after the notification, while the investigation by the same prosecutor's office concerning DIOZ lasted much longer. The employee stressed that the transport of wild and exotic animals, when necessary, requires prior preparations: acclimatizing the animal to the transport crate and ensuring the presence of a familiar caretaker. According to him, severe stress can lead some species to refuse food, panic, or self-harm. The informant also indicated that veterinarians were asked very short notice about the possibility of sedating animals before transport and assessed that such an operation should not be organized ad hoc. As Krasuski reported, the employee believed that transport could be justified in direct threat to life or health, but in other circumstances, the transport itself and the associated stress could also pose significant risks to the animals. #OchronaZwierząt #ZOO #Weterynaria (translated)

🕯️Kanadyjska influencerka Madeleine White (2,2 mln obserwujących) i jej mąż, DJ Andrew Fedyk z duetu Loud Luxury, poinformowali o śmierci swojego 2-letniego berneńskiego psa pasterskiego, Dunkina, którego zostawili w kalifornijskim ośrodku szkolenia psów Smart Dogs Training w Studio City. Za czterotygodniowy pobyt i szkolenie dla dwóch psów zapłacili 10 tysięcy dolarów, a już po 48 godzinach dostali telefon, że Dunkin został zabrany do parku podczas fali upałów, dostał udaru cieplnego i zmarł w drodze do innego, niezapowiadanego wcześniej ośrodka. Do zdarzenia nie wezwano lekarza weterynarii, a AirTagi psów w trakcie tej przejażdżki nagle przestały nadawać sygnał. Sprawa szybko przybrała skalę większego skandalu, bo do White i Fedyka zaczęły się zgłaszać kolejne rodziny - twórca powiedział, że rozmawiał już z siedmioma innymi właścicielami, których psy zginęły w „niewyjaśnionych okolicznościach" w tym samym ośrodku. Sam Fedyk zwrócił się do LAPD i Los Angeles Animal Services o wszczęcie śledztwa, a zleca też autopsję Dunkina, żeby ustalić rzeczywistą przyczynę śmierci. Źródło: People #Psy #Skandal #Zwierzęta
