While we vegans all wish there wasn’t a need for animal sanctuaries, we are truly grateful for the compassionate work being done by so many people around the world to help animals in need. The animal sanctuaries, rescue centers, and shelters shown on this page are sorted based on reviews from your fellow vegans worldwide, and many are well worth your support. If you’re able to, consider visiting one or more of these animal care facilities, whether they are near home for you or if you happen upon one while you are traveling abroad.
Our goal is to provide a platform that truly respects and mirrors our collective vegan opinions and perspectives. As our global vegan community adds additional animal sanctuaries and care facilities, and as we review and rate our favorites, the resulting listings will continuously, and more accurately, reflect our favorite animal sanctuaries.
Our vegan community’s favorite Animal Sanctuaries in Germany
We give animals a voice.
Reduced to the functions of food supplier, measuring instrument or moving target, millions of animals suffer in Germany. Inadequate legislation and poor law enforcement mean that animal cruelty, whether in industrial factory farms or in animal testing laboratories, is considered practical and also perfectly legal. Even cruel and outmoded traditions such as the hobby hunting still exist in this country today.
Our missions at Deutsches Tierschutzbüro is to fight against these everyday animal injustices. We have givens ourselves the role of lawyer for the animals, and to give them a voice and to argue for their rights. We document instances of animal cruelty and make them public, practicing with spectacular actions and intensive media work to place pressure on politicians to save animal lives. With our information and education campaigns, we are trying to reach people who have so far given little thought about animal welfare or the origin of animal products. Only when the majority of consumers and voters decide against products produced through animal torment and calls for better laws and tighter controls, will the situation of the animals change. That is what we strive for.
Our goal is that animal shelters and sanctuaries are eventually empty and our work is unnecessary.
