And I mean…Some people have responded and called the police.
Here is some messages on Facebook:

“1.Just called and was only told that it is an ongoing investigation and that they don’t provide updates on anything ongoing.
Hopefully if enough people keep calling, they will feel some need to do something.

2.I just called someone answered and they hung up on me once I said it was about this farm. More people need to call because being hung up on is really bad.

3. i just called. the officer said it’s ongoing. i said thank you for your attention he said ‘you bet’. I really want the suffering to end. how much more of this tragedy do we have to witness for it to end? no excuse for animal abuse. these are innocent babies.Just called and was only told that it is an ongoing investigation and that they don’t provide updates on anything ongoing.
Hopefully if enough people keep calling, they will feel some need to do something”

Big thanks to the brave activists of DxE!!

Actually this is a case for the veterinary office.
Which here in Germany and for similar crimes in farms repeatedly failed cracked.

We see animals being abused by professionals, animals eating each other and being horribly disfigured, animals dying helplessly and not even getting the minimal help they deserve…
And as if that weren’t an obvious crime on the part of the Iowa Select Farms, its faithful servants want to declare this place of horror as their personal domain, their high private property including living beings being tortured and massacred.

The police have become accustomed to violence, is nothing more than a necessary evil that goes with it.
We live in a society in which severe violence against animals is considered a trifle.

We must not make it easy for them.
Call and forcefully request the police officers to do their job.
Finally they are paid by us.

My best regards to all, Venus

ALF: High seats destroyed – no more murder from there

From German Media (translation)

The sight of the destroyed, sawn-down hunting high seat, which lies on the ground on the country road between Rheinfelden and Möhlin, annoys Willy Itin, hunting supervisor in the Rheinfelden area.

“2000 francs are over,” he says and adds: “It’s a bottomless impudence – just destroying someone else’s property. (!!!)

” With red paint, the alleged perpetrator has sprayed her abbreviation on the high seat: “ALF” Animal Liberation Front; to German: Animal Liberation Front.
Their goal is to prevent animal testing and killing of animals. This is done, for example, by attacks on laboratories and animal farms by means of sabotage or arson attacks.

Danger to life and a queasy feeling it is hard to imagine, according to Itin, what could have happened if the perpetrators had only sawn on the stilts or the ladder and a hunter in the seat had fallen as a result.

He says: “In the worst case, you can break your backor a shot can come loose. In general, it would be anything but easy for hunting today to fulfill its mission of keeping game damage to a minimum (!!!). Animal rights activists don’t want us to hunt anymore and according to some farmers, we can’t hunt often enough,” says Itin.

Two more high seats destroyed it was not the only action against the hunting parties in the lower Fricktal in the night from Saturday to Sunday.
Also in the hunting ground Möhlin-Süd in the Röti area at the foot of the Sonnenberg tower, the ALF allegedly sawed a high seat, a third fell near the brewery Feldschlösschen in the hunting ground Olsberg.

In the past, the three hunting societies had no problems with the said animal liberation front. In principle, one could be against hunting, says Paul Mahrer, deputy supervisor in the Möhlin Süd district.
But: “You should then please collect signatures, but not commit a crime.”

“In the future, you have to check carefully whether the high seat is not manipulated before you climb on it”, warns Mahrer.
He hopes that the police can identify the perpetrators and that they will have to bear the costs on which the hunting party would otherwise remain seated.
The other hunting societies also hope for this in unison. Thus, the reassembly is not only associated with costs, but also with time and work.
Police have started the investigation yesterday afternoon, it was still unclear whether further high seats had been destroyed.

As Corina Winkler, spokeswoman for the cantonal police, says, the police have started the investigation and secured the first traces.Call for witnesses persons who have noticed suspicious persons in the vicinity of the crime scenes from Saturday to Sunday are asked to report for information by telephone…

And I mean…In principle, anyone with a license to hunt can set up such high seats.
This makes a high seat one of the very few structures that do not require a permit in Germany, which means that anyone can build wildly.
Where and as much as anyone wants.

Even on someone else’s property, and if the owner on whose property such a building stands does not agree to the construction, he has to calculate with a long process, with costs for lawyer, trouble..etc.
Even though it’s his property.

Most of the time, in front of such murder seats there are feeding barrels for the animals that will soon be executed.
By feeding them, with which they literally fatten up some wild animals and bring them through the winter, they just want to shoot a deer quickly and not sit in their seats for hours and wait for one to run by.
Hunter Willy Ittin claims “hunting today fulfills its mission of keeping game damage to a minimum”.

Hunting is not wildlife management – genocide is not humanitarian aid.
Mentally, morally, socially sane people with decency don’t need the disgusting, murderous hunt.
Thanks to the activists of ALF
