Shocking incident: Hase suffers painfully in life trap!

In a shocking incident in Schletz, near Asparn on Zaya, cruel animal experiments suffered a terrible climax. Animal protection Austria has filed a complaint against an unknown hunter after a rabbit died painfully in a living trap. This tragic incident, discovered on January 28, 2025 by Di Franz Puchegger from the ecological hunting association of Austria, leads to request for investigations, identification of the perpetrator and the withdrawal of the hunting license. As Animal Welfare Austria emphasizes, the torture of animals is not a cavalier offense, and such practices must be pursued rigorously.

The rabbit was found in a closed trap that was not regularly checked, a clear violation of the statutory hunting regulations. In Austria, over 50 percent of vertebrate species suffer declines, an alarming fact. The organization describes the trap hunting as one of the most brutal forms of hunting, which should urgently be abolished. Animal protection Austria has been committed to tightening the hunting laws for years and calls for consistent sanctions against cruelty to animals. In addition to the criminal proceedings, the organization also appeals to the public to become active when suspected cruelty to animals and to inform the police, as can be found in the recommendations of animal welfare Austria. So it is advised to act immediately if you meet an endangered animal.

call to vigilance

If animal lovers should find contemporaries of abuse or emergency situations such as hungry, thirsty or abused animals, quickly action is required. Contact with the police and responsible authorities is strongly recommended, especially in Vienna to MA60. Animal protection combinations in the federal states and local animal welfare associations can also offer valuable support. The Tierschutz Austria team is ready to provide advice and action affected citizens and is committed to cruelty to animals to demand an end to these atrocities, as it becomes clear in the guidelines of this organization.

The urgent connection between laws and the protection of the animals is becoming increasingly clear. The unbearable conditions under which the rabbit died are an example of how important it is to close legislative gaps and consistently take action against cruelty to animals. The idea that animals have to suffer such agony must have an end. As animal protection Austria summarizes, robust measures to contain wildlife crime are essential.
