What happens if we use the keyword “fox hunting” in Google?
Comes a horror result: half a million foxes kill 381,821 hunters annually, hunters who I call psychopaths of the forest.
Torture and murder against foxes has a long tradition in Germany.
And it starts again now. Nationwide, the hunters blow these days again to massive hunting for foxes. There are corresponding “action weeks” in almost every city, where every primitive and unrestrained “Huntsboy” of the German hunter gang can participate in the planned bloodbath these days.
The cruel “hunter” souvenirs of the massacred animals, which are proudly and “traditionally” posted on every hunting blog, remind one of the Holocaust.
The one who proves most fox tails is the shooter king.
To this bloody spectacle belongs the horn blowing and the schnapps in front of it, in between and afterwards.
What remains of the animals is decoratively laid “on track”. Arranged in series and limb, the carcasses are “pretty” next to each other.
Many of them badly messed up with cracked pines and barrels or gushing guts.
We have to imagine one thing: the animal shown in the photo is only the top of the iceberg.
Because if the death gets the male dog after mating, which plays an important role in the later rearing of the boys, then later on the boys will die, and the mother will often die at the same time.
Never had our hunters easily massacred their potential victims than in those days. The otherwise shy and suspicious foxes are now in mating season, walking carefree, unaware and investing all their attention in actions that serve their survival.
Which on those nights cost thousands of their heads.
Now almost every remedy is right in the murder of the fox. In North Rhine-Westphalia anyway, where the new state government sets completely new, worse standards for nature conservation.
One has to be morally and ethically quite degenerate to enjoy such pictures of the massacred animals.
But the most of the 381,821 German sham owners with the license to kill, have proudly preserved this “ability” or even “cultivated” it!
In all parts of Germany the so-called “Fox week” will take place from the 28th of January to the 2nd of February.
Which is nothing but the terror of a minority of 0, 46% sadistic murderer against innocent and defenseless animals.
And a population of over 80,000,000 Germans makes this terror possible with their “tolerance” which is nothing else than cowardice.
That is today’s civilized Germany.
And from this country other European countries expect understanding and empathy for the animals.
From this country (EU dynasty) we have been waiting for years the 8hours limit of animal transport, the control of animal welfare laws in the EU, the anesthesia for the castration of piglets, the ban on transport of pregnant cows, the abolition of wildlife in the circus, the abolition of hobby hunting. …
And we are still waiting.
But with good news, I can already complete my contribution. More than 40 organizations and initiatives in the field of nature conservation and animal welfare are calling for Luxembourg’s role model to be followed and the cruel and pointless fox hunt to be stopped.
We hope and fight all together farther.
My best regards to all

Dear Mark,
I am sending you good news concerning the further ban on fox hunting in Luxembourg.
I got this just today by mail, from the “Wild Animal Protection Society of Germany”.
Best regards to you and all
Venus
Luxembourg extends hunting ban on foxes
The Luxembourg Government Council has just renewed for another year the prohibition on fox hunting introduced in 2015. The protection of foxes is a successful model: the fox populations are stable; the predicted “stock explosion” by hunters in the run-up to the hunting ban has failed to materialize. A study now shows that the protection of the fox also reduces the risk for humans to contract the fox tapeworm.
“Action alliance Fox”, an initiative of more than 40 German animal and nature conservation organizations, to which “Wild animal Protection Germany” also belongs, calls on the Federal Government to follow the example of Luxembourg.
The Luxembourg Ministry of the Environment banned fox hunting in 2015 because there was no reason to kill several thousand foxes a year. Hunting associations had repeatedly warned against sprawling fox populations by the hunting ban. In addition, they repeatedly tried to exploit the fear of the fox tapeworm in order to overturn the regulations.
Hunting increases the risk of infection by the fox tapeworm
However, there are no signs of higher fox numbers to this day. In addition, a study published in France in November 2017 shows that hunting increases the risk of infection from fox tapeworm.
While the foxes’ infection rate increased from 40 percent to 55 to 75 percent as a result of heavy hunting, it remained constant in a hunting-free control area. Franck Boué, one of the authors of the highly regarded study, presents the results in a lecture on 29.1.2018 in Luxembourg City.
Fox stands need no “regulation” by humans
Again and again, both studies and practical experience in various fields show that foxes need no “regulation”. Hunting losses, for example, increase birth rates and increase immigration from neighboring areas, quickly compensating for losses.
On the other hand, experience from hunting-free areas shows that fewer fox pups are born there and that there is no mass propagation. “Birth control instead of mass misery,” commented the biologist Erik Zimen.
Ban on fox hunting: pointing the way for the whole of Europe
The ban on fox hunting in Luxembourg sets the trend for the whole of Europe: the right decision has been made against the massive pressure of an influential lobby on the basis of verifiable scientific facts. “It is high time that even political decision-makers in Germany stop bowing to the interests of the hunting lobby,” says Lovis Kauertz, co-founder of the “Action Alliance Fox”. “The example of Luxembourg shows that prohibiting fox hunting not only prevents the often painful deaths of thousands of foxes, but is also a model of success for citizens, animal and nature conservation.”
Past SAV posts relating to fox hunting in Germany – many graphic pictures show the reality of this barbarism:
When I read Juncker’s ridiculous attempts to re-enter you, Britons, some thought came to me, and I send it to you. Nigel Farage, head of the exit party UKIP, in the EU Parliament said: “Juncker has never had a decent job”!!
He is right. And anyway, he cannot practice the job of the President of the EU Commission decently.
And here is my comment.
Mr Junker
Juncker got a “nerve exit”!
He still cannot believe that he has lost the most beautiful bride in the EU -England.
It cannot be explained otherwise that he now pretends that everything can (and should) be reversed.
The Brexit is a disaster, he says, a loss for all. Blame it are only a few politicians, not the English people.
He is generous: The EU has not kicked out England, we would like to keep it, and if they want to stay we will find a solution.
And Tusk adds: our hands stay outstretched.
Mr Tusk
The truth is: EU is the loser in this situation, disaster is when you stay in the EU. When it comes to Brexit, the Brits will have gained their versatile freedom, and the EU will lose a strong partner.
Some have understood that being an EU member is a disaster.
Everyone has understood that the model EU does not work.
England can open its own club with Scandinavia, Iceland, Finland, the Baltic States, and perhaps even the Netherlands, to which perhaps Switzerland and Austria may then join.
And Germany can supply the impoverished Mediterranean area.
In any case, the real political Britons fortunately no longer have a vision of Europe, so it is more than embarrassing to try to convince the people to go in again with the kitsch of the open arms or with the sloppiness of the economic catastrophe, where soon nobody wants to go in anymore.

SAV Comment
In the near future we hope to be able to publish 2 major articles on how the EU is failing animals. We are producing these at the moment. Watch this space.
The EU and its Colonies
Above – EU Must Ensure Animal Welfare; or put it another way;
Animal rights activists are firmly convinced that the hell of the “useful” animals can only be improved by two measures:
1. People should stop eating meat and
2. The countries (at least in the EU area) should finally adopt an effective animal welfare law and respect it.
There are also a few, few who have invested great hope in the intervention of the EU. And still believe that the criminal circumstances, especially in the slaughterhouses, can only be abolished by laws, decisions and prohibitions by the EU.
They believe that an EU country can live well on subsidies and thus help animals.
But they forget the example of Romania, as with the EU’s subsidies for the strays and their sterilizations, some have become over one-night rich as “dog catcher “and professional animal killers.
Today I will be more careful with the Dog Catchers business of Romania.
Because in Germany it is just like that at the moment, not with strays, but with wild boar. In many German states, there are now livestock premiums to encourage local hunters to go hunting more often despite falling prices for wild boar meat.
In Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, the land gives the huntsman € 25 for each hunted animal, in Bavaria it is € 20.
I do not know how many are dreaming of EU membership.
All I know is that this dream can become a nightmare.
Because the biggest betrayal of the EU so far is the betrayal of the animals.
And for us too, who have been trying for years to persuade these lazy, high-paid and irreverent gang (the Members of the European Parliament) to do their duty.
Millions of petitions against animal transports were ignored.
Petitions against illegal crimes in German slaughterhouses were also ignored.
Undercover investigations by animal rights activists have recently shocked even carnivores and not vegan citizens of Germany.
For some of those I send as a link below.
But the German government, with the arrogance and indifference of a country that is practically the EU, despises laws and agreements and allows itself to act according to the economic interests of the meat mafia, when and where it suits them. In its own country and in EU countries.
So Germany is no different than the EU dynasty with its 28 colonies. Poverty, credit, profits and economic crises favor the EU for poor countries.
Illegal animal transports, slaughterhouses-Dachau, animal farms like cemeteries support the EU for the animals.
I consider the EU (Germany) to be the moral and economic bankrupt of the 21st century.
And there’s no reason to keep this syndicate alive. No one!
It remains only to discuss how we can eliminate this extermination machine.

‘Clean’ ? – ExxonMobil Billings Refinery
Tell ExxonMobil to follow through on its promise to provide details on how climate change risks will impact its business.
ACTION ALERT ExxonMobil is Feeling the Pressure
ExxonMobil is feeling the pressure from the public and shareholders to stop supporting climate deception and begin planning for a low-carbon future—let’s keep the pressure going!
You’ve helped us shine a light on ExxonMobil’s funding of anti-climate lobbying groups like the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), and the message is getting through. When ALEC drafted a resolution last month calling on the Environmental Protection Agency to withdraw its science-based finding that global warming emissions are endangering the planet, Exxon opposed the resolution, distancing itself publicly from ALEC’s anti-climate stance. The resolution was eventually dropped.
Days later, in response to a shareholder-approved resolution that called on the company to report on how it is aligning its business with global climate action, ExxonMobil announced that its board will provide shareholders details on climate change risks and impacts to its business.
Unfortunately, ExxonMobil’s announcement to disclose climate risks is short on details. ExxonMobil should develop a business plan that takes climate science and the risks of fossil fuel investment seriously. And, while ExxonMobil called out ALEC on this instance of climate science disinformation, the company continues to fund them—despite ALEC’s track record of climate change denial. Additionally, just this week, ExxonMobil took the first steps toward suing state and local governments who are moving to hold energy companies accountable for the impacts of climate change.
ExxonMobil needs to know that we’re still watching, and that lip service isn’t enough.

THIS BEAUTIFUL DOG IS MILICA.
She is living on the streets and has nothing and nobody.
One very kind rescuer, Andjelka Matijevic helps her by feeding her and she has had her spayed already to ensure she doesnt end up pregnant to some other street dog bringing more unwanted pups into the world.
But, this gentle quiet dog needs a home. She has no sponsors, nothing.
Maybe because she isnt aesthetically as beautiful as many other cute and fluffy dogs, but this is one very special diamond girl. She loves children, and plays beautifully with them. She adores other dogs, and has no issue at all with any other dog. We have no idea how she would react to cats, but bearing in mind she lives on the streets, Im sure she has learned to live alongside the many cats and other dogs on the streets whilst she seeks out some small pittance of survival.
She is helped with food most days by the very kind Andjelka Matijevic, but she has no chance and never will have unless somebody can offer her a loving forever home. She will spend the rest of her life, whether thats long or short on the street unless she gets a chance of a new life.
A more gentle, affectionate dog you couldnt wish to meet. This is a lovely lovely girl who needs a home. Please think about giving her a chance. Just one little chance is all she needs to turn her very sad abandoned life around
If you can offer her a home, or even sponsorship to be safe in pension and off the streets, its just 50euros per month or £46 UK to keep her safe in a pension every month …
… so she doesnt risk being hit by a car or even poisoned by the public, or caught by the dog catchers.
If you can offer one of the above solutions, please contact the very kind Andjelka Matijevic to let her know you are interested in helping sweet Milica.
Do one good thing this year, help a dog in need if you can.

Stop the lies, stop the suffering.
Action required BEFORE 17th January – please act now.
Dear Mark,
We need your help.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is once again putting corporate interests ahead of animal welfare and consumer rights.
In December, the USDA announced plans to scrap the Organic Animal Rule requiring organic farmers to raise their animals more humanely than animals on factory farms. The agency seems determined to ignore the fact that tens of thousands of you spoke up over many years in support of the new rule.
As required by law, USDA has opened one last comment period before it intends to pull the plug for good.
We only have until January 17 to tell it that this decision is irresponsible and unacceptable.
Most people assume that “USDA Organic” farm animals spend time outdoors, with the sun on their backs and grass beneath them. But in reality, the Organic program has only a handful of poorly defined, completely inadequate animal care standards.
Some large-scale “organic” farms take advantage of this and keep animals crammed indoors. The Organic Animal Rule would finally define outdoor access and provide other basic protections for farm animals so all organic farms would be required to give their animals better lives.
If the USDA succeeds in killing this rule, it would put the 100 million animals raised on organic farms each year in danger and prioritize the profits of a few companies at the expense of consumers, who expect better when they pay a premium for Organic products.
We have just over one week left to fight back, so please take action before it’s too late.
If you believe farm animals deserve to be treated humanely, please visit ASPCA.org to quickly and easily submit a comment to the USDA demanding the Organic Rule be implemented as promised.
