Tierschutzfachliche Bewertung: Verstößt die Anbindehaltung gegen das Tierschutzgesetz?

Mehr als 1 Million Rinder in Deutschland verbringen ihr Leben an einer kurzen Kette angebunden, eingesperrt in einem Stall. Die Anbindehaltung beschränkt die Tiere in allen Lebensbereichen: Bewegung, Sozialverhalten, Nahrungsaufnahme, Fortpflanzung. Die dauerhafte Fixierung unterbindet so gut wie jedes arttypische Verhalten. 

Aufgrund dieser schweren Einschränkungen und da die Anbindehaltung außerdem deutlich mehr gesundheitliche Probleme wie Lahmheiten, Entzündungen, Atemwegserkrankungen und Klauen- und Euterverletzungen verursacht als andere Haltungsformen, steht sie seit Langem in der Kritik.

Dieses Gutachten geht der Frage nach, ob die Anbindehaltung von Rindern mit den Vorgaben des Tierschutzgesetzes vereinbar ist. Es umfasst den aktuellen Forschungsstand und wertet zahlreiche relevante Studien zu den Auswirkungen der Anbindehaltung auf die Tiere aus. Außerdem gibt es einen Überblick über die politische Entwicklung des viel diskutierten Anbindehaltungsverbots, das bisher nicht bundesweit beschlossen ist.

Expertise for Animals erarbeitete das Gutachten im Auftrag von Kühe ohne Ketten. Kühe ohne Ketten setzt sich für die Abschaffung der Anbindehaltung von Rindern ein.

Wir bedanken uns bei Kühe ohne Ketten, dass wir das Gutachten frei und für alle Interessierten einfach zugänglich auf unserer Website zur Verfügung stellen können.

Inhalt

Die Anbindehaltung ist mit zahlreichen körperlichen Problemen, starken Einschränkungen im Sozialverhalten und dauerhaftem psychischen Leid verbunden. Das Wohlbefinden der Tiere ist durch verschiedene Faktoren stark beeinträchtigt. Das Gutachten bewertet auf Basis aktueller wissenschaftlicher Studien die tierschutzrelevanten Aspekte dieser Haltungsform. Dazu betrachten wir unter anderem: 

  • Gesundheit
    • Bein- und Klauenkrankheiten
    • Erkrankungen und Verletzungen des Euters
    • Atemwegserkrankungen
    • Technopatihen (aufgrund der spezifischen Haltungsform)
  • Verhalten
    • Fortbewegung
    • Erkundungsverhalten 
    • Nahrungsaufnahme
    • Sozialverhalten
    • Körperpflege
  • Emotionen
    • Emotionale Belastung
    • Stress
    • Stereotypien

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
