You want to transport live animals over a large distance. What do you have to consider when planning the route?

The selected combination of answers covers crucial aspects that ensure the safe and humane transport of live animals.

1. Checks and maintenance of the load are essential to ensure that animals are securely and safely transported, reducing the risk of injury or stress.

2. Stops for fuel and rests are important not just for the driver's safety and well-being, but also for the animals, allowing for breaks to reduce stress and ensure their comfort throughout the journey.

3. Animal protection regulations for transports outline specific legal requirements regarding how animals should be transported to minimize suffering and ensure their welfare during the journey.

All three aspects are interconnected and are mandated by regulations under German law, specifically the Animal Welfare Act and transportation regulations, which set forth guidelines to protect both the animals and the driver. Following these regulations helps prevent legal issues and promotes animal welfare.
