The aim of this paper is to analyse the system of legal protection of animals applicable in the Federal Republic of Germany. The separation of animal protection law results from the provisions of Article 20a of the Constitution, which makes animal protection a fundamental task of the State, along with the protection of environment. The paper discusses the object of protection, the aim and the sources of the law as well as the general principles and characteristics of animal protection laws. The object of protection are animals whose nervous system structure allows at least for the awareness of pain. The analysis of sources of law allows for the formulation of the following principles of animal protection law: the State's obligation to protect animals, consideration of moral values of animal welfare according to the needs of the species, prevention of suffering and protection of animals' living space by means of appropriate provisions in environmental laws, the primacy of human interests over animal protection, human responsibility for animals, the prohibition of unjustified infliction of pain, suffering or harm, prevention, the comprehensiveness of animal protection, taking into account species-related and individual differences in maintenance and handling of animals, higher levels of protection of vertebrate animals. The characteristics of animal protection laws include: a very wide area of regulation, in comparison with the systems of other fields of law, dynamism, protection of some animals maintained outside the territory of the European Union.
