Zu Tode gefolterter Wolf in der Türkei

Achte auf das lachende Gesicht des Mannes....

Sind Sie geschockt durch diese Bilder? Ja, wir auch. Darum haben wir uns auch entschlossen, diese Bilder auf unserer Webseite zu veröffentlichen.
Dieser Wolf ist tot. Was er durchgemacht hat, können wir uns nicht vorstellen. Sorgen wir dafür, dass sein Tod nicht vergessen wird.
 

Was ist passiert? Am 22. Februari 2005 haben elf Männer in Malazgirt einen wilden Wolf gefangen und 45 minuten gefoltert. Danach haben sie ihre Hunde auf ihn gehetzt. Der Wolf war aus Hunger in das Dorf gekommen und hatte in den Abfällen nach Essensresten gesucht.  Aufgrund des Tierschutzgesetzes Art. 5199 haben vier (Ahmet Gürel, Halis Güvenir, Dinçer Yazıcı en Nimet Güvenir) der elf Täter ein Bussgeld von gerade einmal €163,-- erhalten. 

Wir können nicht zulassen, dass diese Tierqualer so einfach davon kommen. Wir finden, dass die Täter strenger bestraft werden müssen.

Die türkische Tierschutzorganisation, die sich dem Fall angenommen hat, strebt eine Klage gegen die Täter- die Herren Ahmet Gurel, Halis Guvenir, Dincer Yazici und Nimet Guveni- an. Man ist bestrebt, gemäß Artikel 24 des Gesetzes Nr. 5199 eine Wegnahme der privaten Tiere und ein lebenslanges Tierhaltungsverbot zu erwirken.

Eine Unterschriftenliste wird an das Europäische Parlament, den Bürgermeister von Malazgirt und den Premierminister und Präsidenten der Türkei geschickt.

The wolf had a hundred eyes...

I guess, if I did not go mad tonight, I never will..
I guess, if my heart dealt with the enormous sorrow I felt tonight, it will deal with anything..
I have told you before, I'm telling you again: I do not wish to be called a human anymore. I refuse to be called a human.
Tonight, I have seen torture with my very eyes. With these "human" eyes, I saw the torture the humans and their children did on a god's creature, known to be a "wild" wolf..
I saw a living being's eyes filled with fear.
I saw a piece of wood shoved in his mouth, and I saw him being tied up. I saw him tied to a chain from his hind leg, dragged on the ground.
I saw a bunch calling themselves "humans", pick the animal up from his ears triumphantly, and pose to the cameras.
I saw the blood pouring out from his mouth when they took the piece of wood out.
I saw the torture this creature went through, all because God created him as a wolf, and he was acting by his nature.
I saw a huge Anatolian shepherd dog released onto him to kill him.
I saw the humans poke him with sticks after he was ripped apart by the dog.
I saw the creature known as "humans" torturing a creature that was acting according to his nature. I saw the humans enjoying this very torture.
I was so afraid of what I saw tonight...
I was not afraid of the "wild" wolf one bit tonight...
I was so afraid of these humans, and their children tonight.
They were laughing, giggling, posing, enjoying...
The wolf, on the other hand, had his eyes wide open, looking at each and every one of them. The wolf was all eyes... As if the wolf became hundreds of eyes, and seeing everyone who was torturing him and enjoying it, as well as everyone watching him on their tv sets.
The wolf was seeing the whole world, and asking: WHY?
I will never ever forget that wolf, his eyes and what he lived tonight.
I will also not forget the humans that called the tv and said "you are exaggerating, similar things are being to humans as well, who cares about a wolf?".
One day, when being a human or an animal will not matter, what will matter is helping an unfortunate being in need of a help, that will be the day when we will all truly become "human".
One day, when people ask for your help and you do not respond "I say humans first", at that exact moment, your heart will open its doors to a being in need of help, and you help this being even if it's an animal, that will be the moment when things will change.
One day, when being a human or animal does not matter, but you feel the pain the being goes through in your own body, when your body and your heart aches, that will be the day that you will understand what that wolf felt...
And I guess that day will be the day when your heart will become the wolf's heart, and your eyes will become the wolf's eyes... Then, you will ask the world: = WHY?
