In Sweden and Finland, reindeer are subjected to immense suffering during large-scale round-ups and slaughter. A new investigative video from WSPA shows massive herds of reindeer being corralled, transported and slaughtered for their meat in Sweden.
The footage details the immense suffering and extreme fear inflicted upon the reindeer at every stage of the increasingly-commercial process as the reindeer are frightened, mishandled and physically harmed -- all of which is contrary to existing animal welfare laws in both countries. This cruelty cannot be allowed to continue.
Sign this petition calling members of the Nordic Council of Ministers to uphold the Växjö Declaration and enforce existing animal welfare laws.

PS I did share this petition earlier on.
