Proper Treatment of Lost Property and Animals – Finding of an Item or an Animal versus Right to Ownership

• Languages of publication: PL

Abstracts

EN

The current legal regulations regarding property and animals that have been found calls for changes of both legal and system nature. The binding rules and proceedings related to stray animals are especially unsatisfying. The rule that regulations on property items, including those found, should be applied also to animals results in excessive doubts, often hard to resolve, practical and theoretical alike. After all, in case of animals, humanitarian considerations should prevail to civil and legal aspects. At the same time, in practice it is very difficult to find the owner of a found animal, because there is no obligation to tag animals. As a result animals – until they are given to new owners – are maintained in animal shelters at the cost of local self-governments. This incurs substantial expenditures from public funds, and is not beneficial to animals as such.
