An Aiderbichler woman turned to us for help. She had been keeping five sheep on the farm she rented for years. For years this was not a problem for the landlady. But unfortunately, keeping animals was not agreed in the rental contract. Now that the landlady had unfortunately passed away, her successor demanded that the animals be removed from the property immediately. As the animals were already very old, she saw no other option than to turn to Gut Aiderbichl, because who would want to take on such old sheep? Here at Gut Aiderbichl, Leni can spend the rest of her life and enjoy her days in a large herd.

Ebeny | Sheep

When this call for help reached us, we couldn't believe our ears or our eyes. On a farm in the Graz area, we discovered an animal farm that was unsurpassed in its cruelty. In the midst of animal carcasses, 30 sheep, 1 horse, two donkeys and a pig had to eke out an existence. The…

When her mother Mona Lisa came to Gut Aiderbichl in 2018, we didn't know that the Zackelschafdame was pregnant. In February, we were surprised with the two sheep girls Renesmee and Zoe.

Ike | Sheep

The Animal Welfare Act has many exceptions. This also includes permitted slaughter. With this decree, the legislators wanted to show consideration for people who see the anaesthetic-free bleeding of an animal as the practice of their religion. But for us, the slow bleeding out of an animal while it is fully conscious is serious cruelty…

Franz | Sheep

The white mountain sheep Sisi and Franz were confiscated by the veterinary office due to circumstances contrary to animal welfare. The sheep were placed on a farm, but could not stay there for life.
