Detailed Animal Action Report

In the scene where we see a horse and carriage in front of the palace in Vienna, production filmed at a location where tourist carriages collected (up to 50 pairs carriages) and began twenty minute tours. Production wanted this activity monitored and recorded and this was the task today to observe and ensure the filming did not harm or disrupt any of the horses normal work. One pair of horses was hired by production for approximately one hour to take a particular 100m route around the large central roundabout. All the tourist horses were in excellent condition and appeared very fit, sound and healthy. All the horses were very well cared for throughout the day and none were harmed in the making of this scene. The carriage riders took the welfare and safety of the horses seriously and responded to all safety advise we gave them.
