Lawmakers Urge Friendly Farming Environment for Egg-Laying Hens
Lawmakers from across party lines are urging the government to speed-up
efforts to build a friendly environment in which to farm egg-laying hens.
The call comes after the release of a report on progress made in assisting
the industry shift to cage-free farming across Asia.
Taiwan ranked sixth out of 17 countries surveyed in the report by Open Wing
Alliance - a global coalition of 100 organizations from 72 countries.
Lawmakers say Taiwan has made no progress in phasing out (淘汰) battery cages
in the farming of egg-laying chickens and say the government to come up with
effective measures as soon as possible.
They're also calling for a policy to help cooperative egg farmers gain access
to land and loans and for subsides to be granted to farmers who adopt an
animal-friendly egg production model.

Canada Man Found Guilty for Killing Muslim Family
A man found guilty of using his pickup truck to kill four members of a Muslim
family has been sentenced to life in prison as a Canadian judge ruled that
the actions of the “admitted white nationalist” amounted to terrorism.
Nathaniel Veltman has also been sentenced to a concurrent (並行) life
sentence for the attempted murder of a boy who survived the 2021 attack.
Veltman was found guilty in November of four counts of first-degree murder
and one count of attempted murder for hitting the Afzaal family with his
truck while they were out for a walk.
The case was the first time Canada’s terrorism laws were put before a jury
in a first-degree murder trial.
Japan Whale Body to be Buried for Skeleton
A whale as long as a train car that died after straying into a Japanese bay
is set to be buried until it naturally becomes a skeletal specimen for a
local museum.
It’s the third year in a row that whales have become stranded in Osaka Bay,
raising questions about the reasons why and the cost of handling the
incidents.
The animal that was confirmed dead Monday is believed to be a male sperm
whale, about 12 meters long and weighing an estimated 20 tons.
The whale was spotted several times in the bay and port since mid-January.
Tidal fluctuations (起伏不定), diseases and climate change are among the
possible reasons it became stranded.
That was the I.C.R.T. news,
Check in again tomorrow for our simplified version of the news, uploaded
every day in the afternoon.
Enjoy the rest of your day, I'm _____.
