The deliberate transformation of a living being into a bundle of suffering and silent despair is a crime – what else should be a crime?
No animal ever tortures only to torture, but man does, and this makes the human species a malformation of evolution.
Fight for animal rights, they have only us.

Austria: Association against animal factories (VGT)
Experts worldwide warn of the danger of animal use as one of the greatest risk factors for the development of new, dangerous diseases.
Activists protested in front of meat counters against animal use and meat production.

Go VEGAN
or DIE”
Animal welfare activists protested in front of meat counters against animal use and meat production as a breeding ground for new diseases.
“Meat kills”
Experts worldwide, like the VGT (Association against animal factories), warn of the danger of animal use as one of the biggest risk factors for the development of new, dangerous diseases.
Habitat loss and hunting of wild animals, as well as intensive animal husbandry, are ideal breeding grounds and sites for new pathogens.
Dr.Dr. Martin Balluch (founder of the association) at the action
Corona in slaughterhouses
Not only the wildlife markets suspected of origin have to be criticized. The corona outbreaks in numerous US and German slaughterhouses show how quickly dangerous germs can also spread in this system. The exploitation of the animals meets there with mostly poor working conditions for the staff – a combination that causes maximum damage.
“Worldwide, not only animal rights activists but also medical doctors and other experts are now calling for a rethinking of the animal use system. We cannot ignore this risk as a human being,” said VGT activist Lena Remich.
“With this campaign we want to draw your attention to the fact that we not only have to look at the wild animal markets, but also that we have to change something directly in our company. Animal production, intensive animal husbandry, slaughter, meat consumption – something has to change here!”
And I mean… I quote a comment that just shows that we deserve a second corona:
“It has nothing to do with animal welfare, nothing with veganism, nothing with ecology or sustainability. It is simply a dangerous form of actionism that we cannot tolerate. No matter in which area.
A limit was crossed here”.
The border has long been crossed in all slaughterhouses around the world.
Of unscrupulous meat producers, farm owners, and their lobbyists in government posts who use our money to conduct criminal and (often) illegal business with the “livestock” animals.
No slogan in the world can be hard enough to describe this hell.
Such apolitical and indifferent idiots are the feed of this fascist system.
We would like to thank the activists for their great action!
My best regards to all, Venus
A disturbing, first-of-its-kind PETA undercover investigation reveals that workers hit, kicked, tied down, and mutilated pregnant, crying alpacas in Peru, the world’s top alpaca producer.
This groundbreaking footage highlights just some of the abuse documented at Mallkini, the world’s largest privately-owned alpaca farm, near Muñani, Peru.
Mallkini is owned by the Michell Group, the world’s largest exporter of alpaca tops and yarn.
Terrified of being pinned down and totally defenseless, they cried out, spit, and vomited in fear as workers grabbed them by the ears.
Workers tied them tightly by the legs into a restraining device reminiscent of a medieval torture rack and pulled hard, nearly wrenching their legs out of their sockets.
When the workers stitched them up, most were never even given a topical numbing spray, which would have been inadequate anyway for gaping wounds.
According to one veterinarian, “The workers are inflicting excruciating pain and torture by sewing up wounds on fully conscious restrained animals without proper pain control”.
Shorn alpacas bled from the torso and hips.
Afterward, the workers threw them onto the concrete floor and even stood on their necks.
Some alpacas froze for several minutes, apparently exhausted after their ordeal.
They slammed pregnant alpacas onto tables.
Mallkini workers pulled alpacas up off the floor by the tail and yanked them around. According to one veterinary expert who reviewed the footage, such “excessive force applied to the bones, joints, and soft tissues in the area” would cause dislocations, fractures, and severe permanent nerve damage.
Shearers worked quickly and carelessly, leaving the animals bleeding from deep, painful wounds. This alpaca bled from the mouth
After talks with PETA, ESPRIT will now phase out alpaca. And as a first step, Gap Inc. (which owns Banana Republic, Athleta, and more) and the H&M group (including its eight brands) have cut ties with Michell, which had supplied them with alpaca.
Please, see for yourself, and join us in helping these animals.
Sign and share the Petition:https://investigations.peta.org/alpaca-wool-abuse/
And I mean… Michell claims that shearing causes alpacas “no harm”!!
On the video, however, serious cruelty to animals is confirmed.
Every industrialization of animals and their products is associated with slavery, torture, and exploitation.
On the Michell Group website, we read following hypocritical information, which serves to preserve this murderous business: http://mallkini.com.pe/farm/mallkini-alpaca/alpacas-peru-andean-heritage
“At Michell, we are the pioneer and leading company in the field of transforming this noble fiber into luxurious yarns, working harmoniously with nature, the environment, and with the utmost respect for the local population.
Our ranch named Mallkini, has the goal of improving Alpaca breeding, improving the herds and animal live, training local breeders, and contributing to the sustainable development of the communities in the Puno region”.
Of course, the company always sells the argument that the business with wool is most important for people living in the heights of South America, especially near the Andes. “We help people who are really poor and live without heath … just to maintain their alpacas and their families”.
To support the human species, we should forgive every crime against animals.
Is it ethical?
If the Michell Groupe wanted to ensure the survival of the Puno people with organ trafficking of human animals, we would call it crimes against humanity.
Those who have rights are respected.
Those who have no rights are despised.
My best regards to all, Venus

FRANCE -Live “decoy ducks” are bred especially for their beautiful voices.
When adult, they are elevated in micro prisons along the banks of a dam to vocally attract their free-flying friends while the hunters lie in wait, their rifles at the ready.
When will our base level of ecological unconsciousness in the name of sport ever change?
We demand an immediate end of this shameful practice.
France: Ban the use of live ducks, encaged, to attack their wild friends, to be shot down.
“Ever since we arrived on this planet as a species, we’ve hunted them down, dug them up, burned, and poisoned them. Today we are doing so on a greater scale than ever”. (Sir David Attenborough)

And I mean… Hunters are serial killers.
Like the serial killer, hunters have to prove their status as a person who has power over life and death.
Both the serial killer and the violent hobby hunter thinks he is taking part in something important.
It is time for every civilized society to recognize hobby hunting for what it really is: a pastime for psychopaths that is kept alive with government support.
So we never tire of publishing their crimes so that everyone knows about them.

I hope this works ok for our overseas supporters.
Here in England; there are many sites around the country where webcams have been installed to enable us, the public. To watch live the daily activities of a wide range of birds who have nested in many different places.
The links are below – I hope they work ‘abroad’; I see no reason why they don’t.
Enjoy the new life; a little break from all the bad things that we have to publish every day !
Regards Mark
We are delighted that peregrine falcons make our tower their home in their breeding season – there have been records of them nesting here between 1864 and 1953, after which there was a long period of absence caused by persecution and the use of organophosphates.
In 2014 a mated pair nested, producing and fledging four chicks successfully in a nestbox built by the Works Yard team. Since then peregrines have hatched and fledged from the Tower every year except for 2018, when a territorial battle between two females prevented laying.
Our resident peregrines are so popular they even have their own YouTube channel live stream and all our chicks are ringed so that we can follow their progress. One of our peregrines, Sally (an adult female), is fitted with a satellite tracker.
This year an unringed peregrine had four chicks. Don’t be alarmed if you can’t see all of them on the camera. As they’ve grown in size and confidence they have started to explore their surroundings.
Ospreys, puffins, peregrines, owls…and more! Watch wildlife on webcams provided by Wildlife Trusts across the British Isles. Webcams allow an unrivaled view of intriguing behaviours: from courtship, nesting, and hatching to a peep into the first few weeks of a chick’s life. Be warned – it’s addictive viewing!
Please be aware that webcams may not be live year-round.
Want more ways to connect with wildlife? Sign up for 30 Days Wild! We’re challenging everyone to do one wild thing every day during June!
WAV Comment – have you ever heard such crap from a business of total crap ?
Yet again, we see the filth trying anything they can to continue with the abuse of animals for financial gain. Lets hope that they go bust – the sooner the better !

Live sheep exporter seeking an exemption to animal protection regulations
Today is the 1st of June, and the first day of the new regulated prohibition period for live sheep export
From now until 14 September, sheep are supposed to be protected from live export into the searing heat and humidity of the Middle Easter summer.
Except one live exporter, Rural Export & Trading or RETWA, is already seeking an exemption because a disease outbreak on one of their ships meant they couldn’t get their last shipment out before the deadline.
This is the most dangerous time for sheep to be exported. These are the months when sheep suffer and die in the largest numbers. That’s why the prohibition is in place.
The answer to RETWA’s mind-boggling request for exemption must be no.

The RSPCA has expressed its shock and disbelief that another company closely affiliated with disgraced live exporters Emanuel Exports and EMS Rural Exports has had an export licence approved.
RSPCA Australia Senior Policy Officer Dr Jed Goodfellow condemned the Department of Agriculture’s decision to grant an export licence to the Kuwait Livestock and Trading (KLTT) company’s Australia subsidiary, Rural Export Trading WA (RETWA).
“It absolutely beggars belief, how the Department could think it could possibly meet its regulatory obligations in granting this licence,” said Dr Goodfellow.
“KLTT has a horrific track record of animal cruelty and disaster in live exports, and has been implicated in multiple ESCAS breaches and animal cruelty investigations in Kuwait in recent years,
“What the public needs to know, is that RETWA had its export licence cancelled in 2004 by then Nationals Agriculture Minister Warren Truss following 25 high mortality voyages within a two-year period between 2000-2002,
“And when this happened, Emanuel Exports filled the gap providing export services for KLTT,
“Now that Emanuel Exports has had its licence cancelled, RETWA is stepping back in,
“It’s another example of the live export shell game, and KLTT is playing the Department of Agriculture for fools,
“RETWA and disgraced Emanuel Exports are closely affiliated trading partners – they’ve shared the same Directors and the same live export ships,
“Graham Daws founded RETWA in 1973, the same year he became director of Emanuel Exports before stepping down earlier this year following the Awassi Express scandal.
“KLTT leased the Awassi Express, and was the consignee/importer for all five horrific voyages exposed on 60 Minutes this year,
“This decision makes an absolute mockery of our already-troubled live export regulation,
This is another dark day in Australia’s terrible history of volatile live sheep exports and serves as further proof of the incompetence of the live export regulator, ,” said Dr Goodfellow.
The decision comes as the community awaits the long-overdue findings of the Moss review into the Department’s capabilities, investigative capacity and culture as live export regulator, and which were due to be handed down in August.
“What’s clearer than ever before now, is that the live sheep export industry has no capacity or willingness to change,” said Dr Goodfellow.
“It’s business as usual for live exporters and their supporters, protecting their mates and doing their best to get around government regulations,” said Dr Goodfellow.
“But I think we may look back on this shameful day as the final nail in the coffin for live sheep exports,
“An industry that has such reckless disregard for community expectations and Australian regulations has no chance of long-term survival,
“The Australian community are sick to death of this trade and it is only a matter of time before it will be brought to an end,” said Dr Goodfellow.

See our recent post:
He has now gone back with other activists to the Iowa pig roasting facility.
New video:
Hi Mark,
The jail kicked me out.
So I went right back to the farm that we exposed roasting pigs alive through “ventilation shutdown.”
They’re about to do it again, but activists are locking down at the farm RIGHT NOW, blocking trucks hauling in pigs, and demanding an end to the violence.
Help us elevate the cries of the pigs and get Governor Kim Reynolds to end this horror and start protecting animals and workers.
Join the action now and share the livestream to help us force a response
Then please help us get our message to Kim Reynolds every way that you can. You can tweet at her asking her to end VSD and #CancelAnimalAg. You can call her office at 515-281-5211 and leave a message. You can submit an email through her website here. We need as many people speaking up as possible if we’re going to protect these animals and the workers who suffer emotional trauma in this violent industry.

For the International Milk Day, June 1, 2020
So far, over 100 campaigns from around the world have been announced or registered for the day. We have not yet discovered one from Germany. On the action map for World Milk Day 2020, the center of Europe is rather a blank spot.
When almost everyone talks about milk and its “miracle” effects on this day, we have found a scientific article that can cure even those who still believe in miracles. Because it is now known that milk is not as healthy as it has been for a long time.
And everyone must finally learn that drinking milk can not only harm their bodies but also cause suffering and death for millions of animals.
Bodo Melnik, professor of nutritional science at the University of Osnabrück, Germany, is considered one of the greatest critics of the drink. He makes it clear why he thinks it is extremely questionable to consume cow’s milk.
“Milk is not a product,” he told the “Vegan World ” magazine.
“Milk is a highly complex signal substance for the care of a newborn. His signal is growth.
“You could also understand it as a kind of doping. But this has to end after weaning”, explains Melnik.
“All animals then stop – only humans don’t.”
Milk increases the risk of prostate cancer
According to the scientist from Osnabrück, when drinking milk, a signal is sent to the human body and this is aimed at growth – that’s why milk is so important for newborns.
In contrast, stimulating an adult’s body to grow could be dangerous.
After all, tumors arise from an uncontrolled proliferation of cells.
It is now known that the risk of prostate cancer due to milk consumption increases.
Why is that?
Melnik made a hardware-software argument. Milk brings the hardware with amino acids. These form the basis of proteins and activate the growth of cells.
It becomes more critical when the software aspect comes into play: the scientist has found about 250 genetic particles in cow’s milk. High consumption may lead to changes in your own genetics. It is not yet clear what the specific consequences are.
Does milk really provide calcium?
The health benefits of milk are now also being questioned. A common thesis is that the drink is important for strong bones. Contradicting opinions claim that the protein content overacidifies the body, which means that the important calcium is excreted more and more.
So is milk a calcium supplier or not?
As “Vegan World” reports, the calcium balance of dairy products is generally positive.
However, it is uncertain whether this will strengthen the bones.
For risks like osteoporosis there are numerous other factors such as your own genetics, hormones or your level of activity.
And I mean…For us today, it’s not just about the health damage or benefits of milk.
It is about the mother cows, who are enslaved and exploited lifelong as turbo machines, with udders so big that they can no longer walk.
And as soon as they stop delivering their 50 liters of milk a day, they are brutally slaughtered.
That is the milk, that is the system of milk production, that is our enemy.
It is about the financial gain of the slave owners, the cattle breeders, who get their legally guaranteed license from criminal governments to torture and slaughter their “milk” cows.
And then the stolen milk, for which the blood of innocent mammals has been spilled, is also thrown away when the sale is not worth it: “European farmers have had to pour some of their milk away”, we read in the media.
Today we have nothing to celebrate, because we know how the milk production system works.
Avoid milk and animal products.
Stop supporting this shit with your money. Don’t buy it.
Not just because of your health, or to make you feel better, but because it is the right thing against this fascist system of exploitation.
My best regards to all, Venus
