The web page “Netzfrauen” (Network Women) was sued by a German big game hunter who killed a big elephant in Africa,  although it was the foreign media who published his photo and not this site. We’ve often posted articles from this very informative website and we’re now really angry with those cheeky jerks who want to intimidate the site with this equally outrageous lawsuit so that in the future facts and truth about the trophy hunt remain in the dark. Here is the message:

“Dear Readers, I have been sued by a German trophy hunter and now I am going to pay a heavy fine to the state of Berlin.

If I do not pay, I go to jail!
I’ve just talked to my trophy hunt organizations and I’m ready to go to jail for the elephants, lions, leopards, buffalos and rhinos, also known as the BIG5.
If I can finally stop this trophy hunt, it’s worth it.
We will continue to inform you – on behalf of all animals.

Thank you for your support.

Netzfrauen”

John Cleese: Trophy hunters who kill wild animals are „impotent“ and „inadequate“

In addition a very nice text of “Netzfrauen” to this situation:

“Incidentally, the one who points to the dirt is more dangerous here than the one who does the filth.” Kurt Tucholsky (January 9, 1890 – December 21, 1935)
Yes, this is still the case in 2019, as we always have to experience painfully.
As a large food company said:
“As long as activists are attacked in Germany and not the corporations, comes to Germany what other countries do not want.”
It is exactly like that.
No matter if you are committed to animal welfare – you will be attacked.
It does not matter if you’re campaigning for healthy foods – you’re under attack.
No matter if you are committed to human rights – you will be attacked!
It does not matter if children are committed to their future – they are attacked.
.. but never by the corporations, but by mothers and fathers, who should actually know better.
So why still fight?

It is more convenient to attack those who point out the filth instead of attacking the real culprit, quite comfortably from the couch!

This is what it looks like in 2019 … Kurt Tucholsky already recognized it then.
Look around, Germany is world champion in pay dumping, but export world champion
Germany is the largest meat producer, possible through factory farming.
Germany has protected the automotive industry for years, and now thousands are unemployed, and while the boards can record millions of euros as salaries, the victims of the “diesel gate” go out empty, that does not matter, the taxpayer likes to pay.
Does not matter if Germany is the country that invests less in education.
It does not seem to matter that nursing homes and hospitals have long since been sold to investors.
Why should we get upset … seemingly all right.
They do not need us!
But do not complain if you realize that everything is not all right!

My comment: The corrupt politicians know very well that it is not the Enlightenment people who are to be punished. The psychopaths who kill animals as trophies are the culprits. It is the epidemics of this planet, dangerous parasites that only occupy the place.
And for us to call things by their name: without the lobbying of the corrupt politicians, most of whom are also wild animal hunters, this dull gang would have no chance to continue their killings.
It is difficult to find the right words against this legalized massacre of defenseless animals. Even attaching the worst photos or words could not be enough to describe the extent of the mass killings of trophy hunters.

The defendants have not asked for donations, but we nevertheless post the account number, and we think that any donation will be an important help that the web site operator does not go to jail.

On the question “why still we fight on”, we had already borrowed the answer from Bertold Brecht: “without us they would have had it much easier”

The following article comes from the internet german magazine “Wild and Dog”. It is an exemplary demonstration of cold-blooded cynicism and repulsive hypocrisy, with which a psychopath describes how the cruel hunting form, constuction`s hunt, works.

Hunters are not only professional killers, they are also professional liars, which is also clear in this article.

First, some about these two hunting (murder) forms

1. Hunting in the nature buildings of the foxes. These buildings raise the foxes themselves to overthrow their family. The dogs are trained with constant pressure to force the animals to jump out, and then they are massacred from thr hunters.

2. The second is hunting in artificial structures for foxes (constructed by hunters). There is the same murderous game of driving the animals out, so they are shot. But there are provided also the fox traps.

Both are methods that want to satisfy a sick sadism and are used only by psychopaths.

The article: Introduction

“Who wants to reduce foxes effectively, has no choice: he must hunt young foxes. We show how it works”.

“No, it certainly does not make fun – not a bit. Because the shooting or catching of young foxes in the construction is one of the most unpleasant acts in hunting life”

But on an other article in year 2017 we find an other oppinion and a video. And there it says: “fox hunting is fun, it’s a nice thing to hunt the fox, it’s an exciting hunt. Hunting in construction is infinitely more exciting than other forms of hunting”.

The article cintinues: “If you want to kill the puppies in the building, it rarely succeeds in getting all the young foxes. The mother will bring the rest of the family to safety, and you’ll have to search again. However, it is very difficult to find the puppies in the increasingly dense vegetation in May. “

Fox puppy traps

With ice cold murderous professionalism is described how to get the foxes in the traps.

“However, if you use special traps, this risk is much lower. Often it is possible to capture the whole thing in just one night.

Meanwhile, several types of puppy traps have been developed and improved.

In practice, the quadrilateral models have proved their worth. The traps have a mesh size of 19 × 19 or 25 × 50 millimeters. However, they can also be produced from 12 millimeter thick screen printing plates!

Around March, the puppies are born and at about four weeks, the puppies explore the tube system of the building, and appear about the fifth week of life before the construction, usually in the last April to the first week of May.

At least, now that the Fox Mum is foraging, it’s time to populate the main tubes with puppy traps. The sooner the intercept, the safer the entire tail gets caught, because in a puppy age of about five to six weeks still a very strong bond of the puppies to each other and to the parent building exists.

And then…

“The trapped puppies are killed by headshot with an approved caliber weapon (22 lb is allowed), either in the trap or outside. And that is anything but a refreshing hunt.

Only understandable if therefore many hunters reject the puppy for emotional reasons. But one must not forget that so that foxes can be taken from the animal welfare in the wild and we get only so the outrunning fox population really under control”.

The truth is: The Animal Welfare Act, § 1 states: “… No one shall inflict pain, suffering or harm on an animal for any reasonable reason.” Only these psychopaths, the hunters have made sure that this law is not widely used by their peers.

Quote biologist Professor Reichholf says: “Our forests are abused as wild breeding grounds for a privileged recreational sport.”

About 10 million animals killed every year from hunters hand, more than half a million of them are foxes. The hunt is nothing but a bloody open air slaughterhouse. And in the end, the remains of the victims hang as trophies on the walls.

How run down can missing morality still look like? Turning a vulnerable life into a bleeding, lifeless bundle of suffering is a crime! What else should be a crime? ”

Hunting is and will continue to be murder!

Hunting, ie the killing of wild animals, has been officially banned in Brazil since 1967. But lobbyists now want to legalize the hunt in Brazil – even in nature reserves.

Furthermore, the new law will allow private hunting areas: for sports, for commercial purposes as well as the commercial trade and commercial breeding of wild animals.

Brazilian environmentalists sharply criticize the bill. Hunting and killing animals call them cruel, immoral and medieval rituals. The hunt is really just for the pleasure of the hunters, the fun of killing and the trade in endangered species.

The fauna, which is already massively decimated, must be protected and must not be destroyed, writes the organisation APREMAVI.

Behind the bill are also the interests of the Brazilian arms industry and arms exporters, especially from the USA.

Scientists reject the proposed law because hunting affects the stability of ecosystems and agricultural land and their own quality of life. Animals are irreplaceable for ecosystems and agricultural crops: they regenerate the forests by spreading seeds, keeping stocks in balance and healthy by controlling pests and diseases.

Loss of environmental benefits from wildlife would have fatal ecological consequences, including high financial costs for us humans. Hunting also increases the risk of endangered species, many of which are endemic to Brazil (i.e., nowhere else in the world) extinct.

The legislative initiative weakens the protection of the fauna and the preservation of biodiversity. It undermines existing environmental laws protecting wildlife (No 5.197 / 67), the Environmental Crime Law (No 9.605 / 98) and international treaties signed by Brazil such as the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity.

Please support the petition to the Brazilian Parliament. It should protect the wildlife and reject the hunting law!

The Belgian parliament passed a national trade ban on ivory on the evening of 4 April. Exceptions, however, continue to apply to processed ivory, which was acquired before 1975.
The Belgian Ministry of the Environment has up to now spoken out against trade restrictions – but now supports a ban in Belgium and at EU level.
Thus, the pressure on other EU member states and the EU Commission to prohibit trade increases. Daniela Freyer of the animal and species protection organization Pro Wildlife comments:

“We hope that the turnaround in Belgium will help finally usher in the end of the ivory trade in Europe.
Germany and the EU should not be in bottom position and should finally ban the ivory trade. “

In July 2018, the Federal Government, together with France, Great Britain and Luxembourg, demanded EU-wide restrictions on the ivory trade.

“Because of the inaction of the EU, all these countries have already acted at national level – only Germany so far not” so Daniela Freyer (ProWildlife)

The United Kingdom adopted the strictest ban in December 2018, Luxembourg in July 2018, Belgium on April 4, 2019. France has already imposed trade restrictions in 2016 and the Netherlands has at least prohibited the sale of tusks and other raw ivory since March 2019.

The EU has been strongly criticized for years: despite numerous international resolutions and demands for a closure of the ivory markets and although the international ivory trade has been banned since 1990, it still allows the trade in ivory from alleged old stocks, sometimes even without permission and thus without control options.

Ivory poaching elephants can be traded through this loophole.
In addition, the EU is the largest exporter of supposedly “old” ivory to Asia, the largest market for ivory.

“The sale of ivory in the EU and exports to Asia undermine global efforts to control poaching and trafficking,” said the Pro Wildlife spokeswoman. The EU has already announced steps against the ivory trade three years ago, but has so far only banned the export of full tusks and other raw ivory.
Export and trade of ivory carvings are still allowed.

China, formerly the largest market for legal and illegal ivory, had already closed its ivory shops and carving factories in early 2018. Demand and black market prices have fallen significantly since then.
In the Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong, an ivory ban should come into force in 2021, in Taiwan in 2020. The vast majority of African states that have joined forces in the 32-member African Elephant Coalition, conservationists, scientists, the European Parliament and some traders demand a trade ban for a long time.
The result of a public consultation of the EU Commission is also clear: 92 percent of the almost 90,000 responses call for a consistent ban on ivory trade in the EU. In petitions by animal and species protection organizations, well over one million people have called for a ban.

“It is high time that the EU rejects bloody ivory trade once and for all, and that it no longer ignores international decisions, demands from African states, the European Parliament, scientists, animal rights activists and more than one million EU citizens”, so Daniela Freyer

The closing of the ivory markets will also be the focus of attention at the forthcoming CITES Species Protection Conference in Sri Lanka from the end of May.

Background of the story

So far in the EU the trade with ivory from allegedly legal old stock, which was acquired before 1990, is allowed.

For alleged antiquities acquired before 1947, not even approvals are required.
Reliable age determination is almost impossible, checking the legality of “antiques” that are offered on the Internet, in auction houses, in shops and flea markets are rare.
These exceptions therefore make it possible to infiltrate poached ivory into legal trade.

In addition, in recent years the EU has become the largest exporter of “legal” ivory to Asia: in 2015 alone, EU countries exported 10,000 pieces of ivory – mainly to China.

Currently, every year about 20,000 elephants are poached for the ivory trade.

My comment: Every day we get a new reason to be against the EU. The more informed one is, the greater is the anger, the rejection, but also the fear that nothing positive and ethical can arise for the animals under this oligarchic gang.
Stefan B. Eck, the well-known MEP, has officially told the European Commission: “EU parliamentarians are no longer allowed to use the word ” morality ” in their mouths”!
And he was right!!

The EU (and that means above all Germany) is nothing more than a lobby for the exploitation of animals, regardless of the form in which it occurs: aggrar lobby, trophy hunting, meat mafia, animal experimentation, circus with wild animal…. The list is so long that you lose your courage, keep counting.

Thank you, Belgium! We need more courage, independence and resistance from the inner circle of the EU, because obviously, the will of EU citizens to abolish the suffering of animals interests the EU a shit.
