We at SAV have looked into German hunting issues quite a lot in the past. Many of the photographs in this particular post are from our own files; as undertaken by ‘D’ in Germany. Please read the excellent info from Venus in this post which is a current, personal feel.
At the end are several links to some of our main articles from the past. Sorry but many of the pictures are very bad – but that is the actual reality of hunting; and we make no apologies for showing animal abuse in such detail. Almost all of the following contain distressing photos, many of which are from ‘D’ – our German investigator – SAV:
Many photos from SAV archives (via D).
The psychopaths who call themselves “hunters” in Germany are about 361,000. 0.4% of the population kill 5 million wild animals each year, creating a bloody reality in the forest, from which most people have no idea. 5 million animals every year – that is 13,700 every day, 570 per hour, almost ten animals per minute. Every six seconds, an animal is killed in Germany by the hands of a hunter.
The fox is the most hunted in Germany. In fact, there is no more a protection time for the fox.
600,000 foxes are shot in Germany every year! The three” hunters” reasons for this: rabies, fox-worm, exterminating important breeders (birds, etc ..) The rabies is eradicated and the probability of infecting by fox-worm t is far less than a 6 in the lottery. Foxes are not just carnivores, foxes eat everything. To this extent, foxes cannot eradicate any animal species.
But no one talks about animals that are endangered by extermination (lynx, wolf, badger …) for which the hunters alone are responsible.
So what are the real reasons for the fox hunt? From the various journals, we read: “Lust for reenactment and heritage,” “Waidmann’s joy to roll a fox in a shot-shot,” the “charm of the winter fox hunt” Hunting-Fever “and” Kick “, is what the hunter-psychopath experienced during the fatal shot. Our European neighbors Luxembourg is much more rational with the fox hunting. And forbade them. In Germany the huntsmen are composed of quite high strata. Lawyers, doctors, judges, city administration Officials are hunters.
It is no wonder that trials against hunters always fall into the hands of the hunters In Germany there is a saying: “who is rich or hunters is always in the right”! Our opponents in the fight against hunting are, therefore, rich, influential persons who are protected by politics. But the majority of the population is in Germany against hunting.
Finally, I would like to say something that perhaps many do not know: 48% of the German forest is privately owned. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Privatwald
For a democratic, and otherwise progressive country in matters of animal welfare, I find it an absolute disgrace.
Venus
with my best regards for you and all.

Danica Mirkovic
Tessa is a young kitty girl who already knows the meaning of pain and suffering.
A couple of months ago, while she was living on the streets of a village near Novi Sad, she had an open carpal fracture of her right leg. We’ll probably never find out what happened to her, but the point is that her horrific injury was left untreated for around two months. When someone finally took photos of her, she was in very bad shape and her right front leg seemed to be completely useless, so the vet in Novi Sad (who was the first to examine her) recommended amputation.
However, when she arrived at the shelter she had a thorough physical exam, blood tests and an X-ray by our vet who opted for surgery in order to try and save her injured leg. He removed the necrotic tissue; the wound was debrided and Tessa has been receiving IV fluids over the first couple of days since her arrival, as she was seriously dehydrated and malnourished.
She is being given Longacef and vitamins daily and is eating high quality food, constantly asking for more, while she is getting ready for the surgery which will be performed as soon as her condition becomes stable. Her right carpus is almost completely destroyed by infection and gangrene which is still spreading, so her leg will need to be operated on urgently. The vet is planning to somehow surgically align the fracture with crossed pins, while fixing the bones vertically with metal screws and if everything goes well, a callus is supposed to form a “false joint” which will remain stiff, but it will allow Tessa’s elbow to bend normally.
Once everything heals, she is expected to be able to use her right front leg even though she will certainly be limping for quite a long time or might walk with a slight limp forever, but she’ll be able to bear at least some of her weight on her injured leg. None of us here is decisively against amputation if it turns out to be in her best interest, but not before all of the other options are already tried, exhausted and have failed. An amputation is undoubtedly the easiest and the simplest way out; nonetheless, Tessa is only around eight months old and after everything she’s been through, she definitely deserves a fighting chance.
Whether she manages to overcome her problems or not, she has already proven to be a true survivor, at such a tender age and with an awful start in life. The approximate costs of her surgery alone are around 250 euros if nothing goes wrong; when we add the costs of the drugs she is receiving, special food, diapers and fuel needed for every day’s trips to the vet, it all adds up to about 330 euros.
Donations have been pretty much non-existent lately and we are flat broke at the moment. If you’d like to help our courageous little fighter who has already had more than her share of suffering and neglect, please help us pay off her bills!
Every donation, no matter the size, can go a long way!
Our PayPal is savage1@shaw.ca.
Thank you all in advance!
Tessa had her stitches removed on Saturday. She’s gained a little weight and is now free to discover and explore her new surroundings 🙂
A huge thank you to all of you who have helped this lovely kitty girl!

Here below are some truly superb animal rescue videos by our friends at Animal Aid Unlimited. Despite suffering some terrible injuries, the work and dedication of the team at AAU have proved successful every time. They deserve our support to enable them to continue with their brilliant work.
Between some of the videos you will see a donation link. Please try to give something to help this brilliant team with their continuing work to save animals of all shapes and sizes.
We take our hat off to the entire team; enjoy their uplifting videos and wish them the very best for the future. SAV.

Dear Mark,
Thank you for sharing your beautiful love of animals with Animal Aid Unlimited. We are so delighted to return that love by sharing these special love-packed stories and to introduce you to some unforgettable angels whose happiness was worth every day of treatment and care. Your loving support is behind each of these videos. You are an essential member of the rescue team. So as you watch these videos, we hope your heart will be filled with pride. These are your sweethearts.
How could anyone have abused this precious girl?
This beautiful older lady might have been deliberately hit. We found her bleeding from her head collapsed under brambles. Her recovery was slow and we feared she might have permanent brain damage. But suddenly the sunlight shown through.
A mother’s love meets Animal Aid’s love and the result?
Baby donkey Genevieve was attacked by a wild animal. Her many bite wounds were not only painful, the danger of sepsis from infection was acute. Treating her in the hospital was a must, but someone WASN’T ok about being separated. Genevieve’s mom was not about to let strangers take her baby–so of course, we packed up Mama and took her along. Watch how her mother made SURE she’d get better.
Donations:
“Hold on sweetheart! Hold on!”
This utterly lovely girl could not gain a perch in this well, and she had exhausted all her energy swimming and searching for a way out of her prison. Without rescue she would died from either drowning or hypothermia. What a beautiful angel to save.
A bull FAINTED after falling into a shop.
Two bulls locked horns in a busy Udaipur market, and one of them was hurled through a glass shop window. This poor bull was so upset he lost consciousness and crashed to the floor. Rescuing him was not so easy, but it sure felt good when he recovered and stood all by himself at Animal Aid.
Donations:
This is the biggest porcupine quill we’ve EVER seen. And it went through her eyelid!
This gentle old girl got herself in terrible trouble after we presume she went after a porcupine. We found her with a massive quill embedded several inches under her eye-lid. It was a miracle her eye wasn’t punctured. Watch our just-in-time rescue of this stunned and dazed sweetheart.
Frozen in pain, donkey’s shoulder gashed on busy highway.
What could be more heart-wrenching than a gentle donkey bleeding from a traffic accident, stuck in the roar of traffic unable to move? Watch Hobnob’s crisis turn to slow and steady relief and joy.
Donations:
Sweetest greeting from dog in desperate pain.
Maybe his tail wagged because he sensed his moment of rescue had finally come. Meet gracious Dylan whose shredded ear had become unbearably painful and infested with maggots was life-threatening. He’s a new boy after several weeks of treatment–meet a super hero of sweetness.
Your loving donation lifts suffering Someones out of pain. What a beautiful way to cherish animals.
With our deepest thanks,
Donations:

Enjoying life free from the bile farm at an AA sanctuary – Please help with the special rescue below – and let the bears there be free like this
– see Donation link below.
He’s rescued hundreds of bears from bile farms but, for Animals Asia Vietnam boss Tuan, those still caged and suffering never leave his thoughts.
In 2011, an Animals Asia team was in Vietnam’s Gia Lai province to rescue a sun bear from a bile farm. As is always the case with bear bile farms, the animal, now known as Nelson, was kept in appalling conditions.
Animals Asia’s Vietnam Director Tuan Bendixsen remembers the tiny, rusting cage that had held Nelson for his entire life (pictured below).
Bear farms take their toll in myriad ways. Nelson’s teeth were shattered and infected from desperate attempts to chew through the iron bars, while the surface of his eyes were scratched affecting his vision.
Over 11 years rescuing bears from the bile industry, Tuan has no shortage of bad memories. He knows better than anyone what bear bile farming looks like: hopeless, fearful eyes, balding skin, open wounds, malnourished bodies and shattered teeth.
Tuan said:
“I’ve rescued over 150 bears in Vietnam and I’ve never yet seen a bile farmed bear held in conditions that are anything other than deplorable. Five years ago in Pleiku for Nelson’s rescue it was the same. I’ve lost count of how many farms I’ve been on, but they never fail to fill me with dread.”
So when local Forest Protection Department (FPD) officials told Tuan there were more bears being held in the province, he knew he had to act to spare them the horror he had seen repeated elsewhere so many times.
That day he made them a promise: if you can convince farmers to give them up, we can save the bears – anytime and we’d be back.
That pledge was vital. Vietnam’s Forestry departments are woefully under funded. If they were to find evidence of bear bile extraction they would most likely be forced to turn a blind eye. They simply have no facilities to care for confiscated bears.
Tuan’s promise changed all that. It empowered the FPD to go after those farmers, watch them closely for any mistakes and convince them every day that there is no future in the cruelty of bear bile farming.
This month, more than half a decade later, that pressure looks to have paid off as hopes grow that these bears (pictured above) can finally be saved.
DONATE NOW –
Tuan added:
“For five years I’ve known these bears were suffering unimaginable torment. Underfed, unable to stretch their bodies, sickness, pain and mental agony. We’ve seen it all before, but I know when I set foot on those farms it’ll be as horrific as the first time. The disgust of bear bile farming never dulls. The bears you can’t rescue, haunt you – they’re never far from your thoughts.
“Now we just hope we can rescue these bears and start to turn their lives around. We can’t give them back the years they’ve lost but we can make them free from pain. If we can get them back to our sanctuary we can give them sunshine, open air and bear friends to play with.”
