Decisions about animal welfare have a scientific, political and ethical meaning. We can notice the increasing animal welfare standards in EU. Consumers in developed countries are concerned about the welfare of animals and demand the appropriate, healthy and safe food, which protects the environment. EU protocol obliging member states to pay full regard to animal welfare in forming relevant policy and legislation.
