World Animal Day – Georgia

Animal conditions are fairly bad in Georgia and animal abuse is a frequent occurrence. These cases remain unpunished because Article 259 of the Criminal Code of Georgia regulating animal abuse is ‘dead’ and nobody has been punished yet.

GSPSA will hold a public event to request implementation of the law and tightening of animal protection legislation. GSPSA will also gather signatures on a petition dedicated to this topic during the event. When enough signatures have been collected, the petition will be sent to the Parliament of Georgia.

“Georgian Society for the Protection and Safety of Animals” – GSPSA organized an event to celebrate World Animal Day in Tbilisi on October 4, 2017.

Proceeding from the fact that due to absence of respective legislation and incomplete legal base, animal abuse is very frequent, while the existing legislation does not provide for proper sanctions against extreme animal abusers, the main goal and demand of the event was to tighten Article 259 of the Criminal code regarding animal abuse. GSPSA petition to the Parliament of Georgia was presented on the event and signatures were collected.
