The European Parliament's plenary session approved on 25 February 2016 a non-binding resolution calling for EU-wide data sharing on the registration of cats and dogs to tackle the illegal trade in pets that are often badly bred and at risk of spreading diseases. MEPs argued that trafficking of pets, including wild and exotic animals, was increasingly linked to organised crime and posed a public health risk. |
