The veterinarian who prevented the disaster responded: "I've been in the profession for 34 years, and I've never experienced this".

A veterinarian named Dario Ivaniš prevented a potential disaster by halting the unloading of over 300 pigs at a farm near Varaždin, Croatia. The pigs had been transported from a known outbreak area in Slavonia and were being delivered to a large pig farm nearby. Upon inspecting the trucks, Ivaniš discovered that none of the pigs were properly marked, which could have led to the spread of African swine fever. He immediately stopped the unloading process and informed the relevant authorities. This incident highlights concerns about the proper documentation and tracking of livestock during transportation, especially in areas affected by disease outbreaks.
