British So-Called ‘Trophy Hunters’ Have Killed Over 500 Monkeys And Baboons

A Zoo In Denmark Is Trying To Turn “Unwanted Pets” Into Food For The Captive Predators In Their Facilities.
It is asking the public to consider if they have any unwanted pets – especially small horses, rabbits, chickens, and guinea pigs – and to then donate those pets to the zoo.
The despicable Aalborg Zoo defended this practice by claiming, “In Denmark, this practice is common, and many of our guests and partners appreciate the opportunity to contribute.”
The zoo says that horses must have been illness-free for at least the past month.
To encourage these horse-donations, the zoo is even reminding pet parents that their donations are tax deductible!
They can give away their healthy horse to be eaten by a lion and receive a tax deduction as a reward.
How morbid sick, and twisted.

British So-Called ‘Trophy Hunters’ Have Killed Over 500 Monkeys And Baboons.
The sick, twisted, animal-killers include an old man, Chris Hemingway, who killed a rare albino baboon (who had no means of defence, of course), proudly posed for a photo next to its bloody corpse and then had it stuffed and mounted to display at home.
Contacted online by undercover investigators posing as fellow blood sport fans, Hemingway sent them photos of his trophy room and boasted he had more trips booked.

Whales Are Maimed Or Killed By Fishing Gear.
The number of whales caught in fishing gear along U.S. coasts hit an alarming record in 2024, highlighting how human activity continues to endanger marine life.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) confirmed 95 cases of whales entangled in fishing lines, nets, buoys, and anchor ropes last year.
California waters were the deadliest hotspot, accounting for 25% of the incidents, especially around San Francisco and Monterey Bay.
Humpback whales were hit hardest, making up 77 of the cases.

Other species, including gray whales, fin whales, and the critically endangered North Atlantic right whale, were also caught in the chaos. Tragically, eight of the entangled whales were already dead by the time they were reported.
Entanglement is just one of many threats whales face as they try to survive in an environment reshaped by humans.
Ship strikes, plastic debris, noise Pollution, changing food supplies, and chemical waste all pile on top of the stress caused by tangled ropes.
Since 2007, over 920 humpback whales alone have been maimed or killed by ropes used in crab fishing gear.

A Fox Guarding The Hen House Situation.
On July 3, 2025, Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins announced a new round of political appointments to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
Among them, Justin Ransom was named the administrator of the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), the agency charged with overseeing the safety of the U.S. meat and poultry supply.
Up until his appointment, Ransom held a senior leadership role at Tyson, where he played a key part in launching the company’s highly contested “climate-friendly” beef brand called Brazen Beef, a brand that has been pulled from the shelves and accused of misleading consumers with its empty climate claims.
Ransom also previously held top positions at McDonald’s and OSI Group, a meat supplier that services many of the largest food brands that also fall under FSIS’s purview.

The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is tasked with “protecting the public’s health by ensuring the safety of meat, poultry, and egg products,” according to the agency’s website.
This involves enforcing bedrock public health and consumer safety laws, including the 1906 Federal Meat Inspection Act that established sanitation standards for meatpacking facilities, mandating inspections of all meat sold in the United States.
FSIS also has the unique authority of approval of all meat, poultry and egg product labels on the front and back of packages.
Carrie Apfel, the deputy managing attorney at the public interest law firm Earthjustice, said, “When you have an insider from the second largest meat company at the helm of that agency, it’s a bit of a fox guarding the hen house situation.”

Animal Killers Are Given Exactly What They Want.
Montana’s government has given morons, who call themselves ‘hunters’, the go-ahead to kill as many as 558 wolves this season – the largest number in recent history.
Even worse, it’s given permission to the morons to trap, shoot, or otherwise kill as many as 30 wolves per person.
This government-approved permission to slaughter so many animals even impacts wolves living in the area of the famous Yellowstone National Park.
Wolves in the Northern Rockies region in the U.S. were listed under the Endangered Species Act until 2011, granting them protections from these types of harms.
But now, with those protections gone, ignorant Montana officials apparently are giving the morons exactly what they want.

Seven Captive Chimps Confined In Cramped, Barren Enclosures.
Tonia Haddix, of the 2024 Emmy-nominated HBO series Chimp Crazy, was sentenced to nearly four years in federal prison after pleading guilty to two felony counts of perjury and one felony count of obstructing justice during an investigation into the alleged death of chimpanzee, Tonka.
Haddix, 56, was also ordered to serve three years of supervised release after her 46-month prison sentence.
Haddix, a former nurse turned exotic animal owner, kept seven captive chimps confined in cramped, virtually barren enclosures at the now-defunct Missouri Primate Foundation facility.
Among the chimpanzees, who had been bred to be used in commercials, photo shoots, and movies, was Tonka, a 32-year-old retired Hollywood chimpanzee.

Animal protection group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) was granted permission to rescue the chimpanzees, but when officials arrived to carry out the court’s order, Haddix falsely claimed that Tonka had died, knowingly lying to a federal judge and concealing his whereabouts.
Nearly a year later, following a nationwide search, Tonka was discovered hidden in a tiny basement cage at Haddix’s new home, isolated, unable to move freely, denied outdoor access, companionship, and proper veterinary care.
This resulted in her arrest, and she pled guilty to the counts of perjury and obstruction of justice.
Tonka was transferred to Save The Chimps Sanctuary in Fort Pierce, Florida.
Haddix was also ordered to pay PETA’s legal fees and costs, which amounted to around $225,000.

Twelve Baboons Killed In Zoo And Fed To Lions And Tigers.
Nuremberg Zoo in Germany confirmed that baboons killed to keep down numbers were fed to predators.
The animals had been dismembered after death.
The animals were decapitated and some had their hands and feet removed.
Their skulls and brains from the bodies were separated for scientific purposes.
Six of the 12 Guinea baboons, which were killed due to ‘overcrowding’, were then fed to lions, tigers, maned wolves and marbled polecats.
Skeletons of four baboons were prepared for museum display, the zoo said.
Two baboons died during sedation and were sent for pathology rather than being used as feed.

Wildlife officials said one elephant was run over by a passenger train in the island’s northeast, while two others were found shot dead in the central and eastern regions.
Elephants are protected by law and considered sacred due to their significance in Buddhist culture, but farmers often kill them to protect their crops.
Human-elephant conflict in Sri Lanka has resulted in the deaths of nearly 200 elephants and 55 people so far this year.

Federal Agents Seized 190 Dogs In A Dog-Fighting Case.
A jury convicted a former National Football League running back player for operating a large-scale dogfighting kennel.

Jurors were shown videos and photos from a group chat involving Johnson that, according to authorities, documented dogfighting taking place at his home and farm.
Some of the footage included graphic images of injured and dead dogs.
