In Romania, live lamb markets have opened, with strict regulations for sheep farmers. Authorities advise buying from authorized sellers with veterinary guarantees to avoid health risks. A new slaughterhouse in Craiova allows buyers to choose live animals. Prices are lower than in stores, but the number of slaughterhouses has declined. Romania faces EU scrutiny over animal slaughter practices, requiring stunning and veterinary presence. Warnings against purchasing lambs without certification have been issued due to health concerns, especially after outbreaks of sheep and goat plague.
