The video includes a series of difficult scenes that stand out to any eye: it is evident that the calves are dirty, full of flies, coughing, and two of them drown in the feces and rarely move and it is evident that they are in great distress.

Animals has filed a complaint regarding animal cruelty and environmental offenses with the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Environmental Protection.

"When you see how this sick industry keeps animals, it's not surprising that diseases are rampant and epidemics are breaking out," Animals emphasizes.

In the complaint, the association emphasizes, among other things, that not only is this an offense of animal abuse, but also an offense of the increased duty of those who own animals to provide them with the most basic needs they need for a living: food, water, shelter and appropriate medical care.

In addition, the association notes that "the deplorable conditions in which the animals are kept together with the lack of systems for disposal and treatment of sewage and leachates, the lack of storage facilities or measures to prevent infiltration cause sludge accumulation, create an environmental hazard of odor and flies and can cause soil, surface water and groundwater pollution. ".

Animals concluded: "It is heartbreaking to see calves imprisoned without water and food, sunk and covered in feces, so hungry and desperate that they eat their own feces. The corona came to us because of animal eating, and when you see how this sick industry keeps animals, painfully "It is not surprising that diseases are raging and epidemics are erupting. We hope that government ministries will conduct a speedy investigation and that those responsible for the abuse will be punished with the utmost severity."

The Ministry of Agriculture stated: "Upon receiving the information from the Animal Welfare Division of the Ministry of Agriculture about the case, an investigation has been opened and it is now in progress. From the findings that came to us, violations under the Animal Cruelty Law appear. At present, no further details can be provided. "This is the case, and we will act in accordance with the results of the investigation. We take any violation of the Animal Cruelty Law seriously, and we will continue to prosecute by all means available to those who break the law."

The Ministry of Environmental Protection responded: "The documented case is serious, and clarifies that even when it comes to animals raised for the food industry, it is necessary to take care of their well-being and provide them with decent living conditions. The powers of supervision and enforcement under the Animal Welfare Act are under the Ministry of Agriculture."

As for the environmental hazards arising from the documentation, it was stated: "The inspectors of the Green Police in the Ministry of Environmental Protection will examine things, and will act in accordance with the findings."
