...y recently printing a flyer on the topic. February 8, 2022 In trophy hunting, the goal is to preserve the hunted wild animal or parts of it and display it as a trophy.

Wildlife Protection
... Climate change and a rapidly growing population, leading to increased demand for habitable land and consumer goods, are putting immense pressure on ecosystems and natural resources. As a result of this, wildlife habitats are shrinking. Rainforests, for example, give way to palm plantations for the production of palm oil. The scarcity of habitats also leads to an increase in conflicts between wildlife and humans, especially in rural areas. At the same time, the demand and thus the market for wildlife and wildlife products is growing. Business with exotic animals for the pet market is flourishi...

...reputable Animals - A Bestiary of Human Fears", which takes us into the depths of the human psyche. December 21, 2023 The human psyche is remarkable and highly complex.

Some animal species inspire us, we marvel at their abilities and even idolise them, or we investigate their amazing ...

...ountries, there are a number of provisions for the protection of animals for slaughter and fattening during transport.

Many animals are exported overseas to other continents, meaning that the animals oftentimes spend days on the road before being loaded onto ships to continue their harrowing journey. In theory, the animal welfare p...
