Help animals

The activities of SUST

All over the world, countless animals in overcrowded shelters live sadly or struggle for their survival in wild colonies. Day after day, even today, animals that have become inconvenient are still abandoned, deported or mistakenly kept for lack of better knowledge. The Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation contributes with effective means to the fact that animal suffering can be reduced or even prevented sustainably.

This animal welfare work is based on four pillars:

1. Competence Centre Animal Shelter: Animal shelters become high-quality transition stations for homeless animals, where animals are kept and promoted in a way that is appropriate for their species and finally transferred to good new places.

2. Neutering campaigns: Braking the animal misery

3. Education and training of specialists: Specialists are given the opportunity to optimise their knowledge and improve animal welfare.

4. Education of the population: love of animals with heart and mind

These four elements form the important basis for sustainable animal welfare projects.

Those animals that are not yet able to benefit from the effects of this reconstruction work and have been born into a world where they are not wanted need the emergency aid of SUST.

Goats in need!

December 2023

The Large Animal Rescue Service CH/FL recently had to be called out to rescue two goats that had probably overestimated their abilities and suddenly found themselves on a rocky plateau from which they could neither get up nor down.
Rescuing the two goats in distress proved to be extremely time-consuming: After a helper had roped down over the steep face to the animals, the two - secured in a special rescue harness - had to be flown out of the hopeless situation with the help of a helicopter.
Fortunately, the two survived the adventure unscathed and are happy to be home again.
While most horse emergencies are covered by insurance or the private financing of their owners, the costs involved in rescuing so-called farm animals often cause financial problems for the farmers concerned. To ensure that these important operations can still be carried out, the SUST has been running the "Farm animals deserve professional rescue too" campaign together with the GTRD since 2014 and finances the uncovered costs of rescuing livestock.
