Madrid, España. Months of undercover work to bring to light the truth of factory farms where animals are treated like machines with which to achieve very high production quotas, always to the detriment of their well-being.
Madrid, España. AnimaNaturalis and CAS International have launched a pioneering investigation in Spain that reveals an estimate of the expenses incurred in 2019 by the 1,820 municipalities that organize and finance this type of festival. 22% of Spanish municipalities hold some type of popular bull festival each year, with the majority concentrated in the Valencian Community, Castilla y León, and Castilla-La Mancha.
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, España. The lack of transparency regarding the status of the necessary permits for the installation of the first industrial octopus farm in Las Palmas has meant that we must file a contentious-administrative appeal before the Court of Santa Cruz de Tenerife.
Morella, España. AnimaNaturalis and CAS International documented this weekend a contest where the horns of several bulls were lit with fire, in Morella (Castellón, Spain). Two bulls suffered accidents that, despite the censorship and aggression that the public tried, could be recorded.
Teruel, España. AnimaNaturalis and CAS recorded the animal suffering in Teruel and the exposure of children to this cruelty during the festivities of La Vaquilla.
Teruel, España. AnimaNaturalis and CAS International witnessed in Teruel 12 bulls forced to run in suffocating heat to close La Vaquilla 2023. Tied by the head, the animals stumbled several times on the garbage-filled asphalt and had to endure constant abuse from the public.
Dénia, España. The bulls we throw into the sea are still legal in the Valencian Community, and Dénia is where they are most popular. For this reason, AnimaNaturalis and CAS International return to that town to document the martyrdom of the bulls in the name of tradition.
Pamplona, España. Oloroso, Hípico, Sonámbulo, Rascatripas, Fundidor, Ofuscado, Legionario and Ibicenco. These are the names of the steers that were tortured and killed on the first date of Pamplona's Feria del Toro, which inaugurates the bullfights that will be held during San Fermín.
Ciudad de México, México. In this 2023 we have a double celebration, in March it marks 20 years since our organization was established in Barcelona, Spain, by Leonora Esquivel and Francisco Vázquez Neira, and in May we celebrate 15 years of having a presence in México.
Madrid, España. We expose the horror hidden in the monterías, one of the most characteristic and perhaps most brutal modalities in Spain. The use given to dogs in this activity is prohibited in practically the entire European Union.
Madrid, España. AnimaNaturalis documented five mink farms located in Galicia and Castilla y León in the winters of 2020 and 2021. The images show animals with stereotypes, lack of hygiene, environmental contamination and a slaughter recorded with a hidden camera.
Madrid, España. AnimaNaturalis reveals an undercover investigation that took place between 2021 and 2022, exposing the detrimental conditions turkeys must endure in Spanish factory farms.
Medinaceli, España. Last Tuesday we filed a complaint with the Territorial Delegation of the Government of Castilla y León in Soria for violations of the Regulation.
Medinaceli, España. The bull, which came out already with a bloody mouth and panting, collapsed after 48 minutes and ended up collapsing. From AnimaNaturalis we denounce the Toro Jubilo organization and request a veterinary report to find out the details about the death of the animal and assess further actions. The municipality and the media celebrate the development of the show "without incidents".
Madrid, España. During the years 2021-2022, AnimaNaturalis and CAS International documented 29 dog kennels used for hunting. During the investigation, we found animals living in their own excrement, with dirty or frozen water, exposed to inclement weather and with stereotypes produced by captivity.
