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.

Rare guests at the amphibian haul...

March 2023

Hooray, they are still there!
They are rare guests at our "frog cabs", the SUST helpers who tirelessly help the amphibians across the road in all weathers, early in the morning and late in the evening, at the amphibian migration site at Brauiweiher (Weisslingen/Agasul, ZH).
When a fire salamander is found among frog, toad, newt and co., it is worth a dance of joy.
In former times there were fire salamanders in masses. Today, you don't see many anymore and if you do, you'll only see them flattened on the road.
But, our helpers report; at the Brauiweiher, fire salamanders have been increasingly seen again in the last three years. "We were able to count 10 animals in one evening".
The increased sighting of these fascinating animals is also a good sign for increasing water quality - this makes us happy and we hope that this is the first (albeit small) step away from the red list for the fire salamander.
