Summary

The bill provides for banning the breeding and keeping of animals in Estonia solely or mainly for the purpose of obtaining fur. The explanatory note states that on November 26, 2015, a scientific report was presented in the European Parliament, according to which banning fur farms is the only solution to prevent serious violations of animal welfare in the fur industry. The report shows that fur farms where the needs of wild animals could be met to come, does not exist. Even the best attempts to comply with animal welfare requirements cannot raise animal welfare to a level that most people would consider adequate.
