2022 02 08 Update on TIR campaign to ban the import of hunting trophies
...hich should help us get our voice heard by the Council of States.Our latest flyer contains the most important facts and problems related to trophy hunting. Among other things, it refutes the argument often put forward by proponents of the sport that the income from trophy hunting is used for species protection projects or for the benefit of local communities.

...erine Collins point out in Salmon Wars, around 70% of the salmon consumed worldwide comes from aquaculture. Millions of animals live in cramped conditions in huge marine facilities. Pathogens and parasites such as salmon lice spread quickly here and are often combated with synthetic, sometimes illegal, chemicals that cause even more damage to the marine ecosystem. Escaped farmed fish also threaten wild stocks which are already endangered.Although aquaculture is considered a sustainable alternative to wild fishing, the industry often conceals the actual origin of the fish.
