Key points

The report calls for a comprehensive update of EU animal welfare laws to reflect modern scientific knowledge and technical progress.
There is a strong push to move away from cage-based farming systems toward more natural housing alternatives.
The European Parliament recommends creating a harmonized EU framework for animal welfare labelling to help consumers make informed choices.
A species-specific approach is required, as current laws lack adequate protection for many animals like sheep, goats, and fish.
