Why #trophyhunting is neither credible #speciesconservation nor poverty alleviation nor effective #wildlife management.
Trophy hunting is not a credible tool against #speciesextinction, #poverty or human-wildlife conflict. It rewards the killing of particularly sought-after #animals, jeopardises social and genetic structures and distributes its revenue unequally.https://wildbeimwild.com/en/trophy-hunting-14-lobby-myths-fact-check/

Hidden moth population found after 70 years
A hidden population of one of #England 's rarest #moths has been found at a site where it had not been seen for more than 70 years.
Evie Lake, 13 August 2026
"Head of conservation at #ButterflyConservation Dr Dave Wainwright has spent his career searching for the dark bordered beauty and said he felt an 'overwhelming feeling of relief' when they were found at #WallingtonEstate, in #Northumberland.
"For decades, the only site where the moth was found in England was at Strensall Common, in Yorkshire, but the population there has been in decline due to #ClimateChange and a wildfire.
"The discovery has given conservationists new hope for the species and opened up the possibilities of where more can be found.
"Once widespread across northern England and Scotland, habitat loss has caused significant decline in the #DarkBorderedBeautyMoth.
"The custard-and-chocolate-coloured moth was found at the National Trust site previously but had not been seen since 1952."
[...]
"The moth's caterpillars will only eat two plants - #aspen and #CreepingWillow - which makes it a challenge to conserve, according to #ButterflyConservation."

One year after the killing of twelve #baboon s, #Nuremberg Zoo keeps breeding. Seven of nine young have died
The Nuremberg case is thus emblematic of a fundamental contradiction of the zoo system, which legitimises itself through #speciesconservation but in everyday practice follows a logic of growth and exploitation. Whoever breeds healthy animals only to kill them later is not engaged in species conservation. They produce the very suffering they claim to prevent.

Grey #squirrels, #coypus, and #raccoons are perfect scapegoats for a hunting policy that likes to disguise itself as #speciesconservation. The real cause of species loss in Europe is something else entirely: intensive agriculture and forestry contribute significantly to the loss of #biodiversity – far more than an opportunistic omnivore. Hunting itself also creates more problems than it solves.

The #extinction of an animal species is more than the disappearance of the last individuals of a threatened species; it is the end of what constitutes the future of this earth – the end of birth.

#Speciesconservation is practiced selectively.Silent victims count for less than loud ones.Hunting is not consistently aligned with ecological limits,but rather with traditions,lobby interests,and political expediency.

The scientists argue that the protection of endangered species is a success of modern conservation policy that must not be undermined by hunting interests. These species fulfill functional roles in #ecosystem s: wolves promote tree regeneration, beavers contribute to maintaining open wetlands, and rooks are an indicator of successful #habitat restoration.Protecting them leads to functioning, resilient landscapes, not to ineffective hunting practices

It is inconsistent to demand flexibility regarding wolves while refusing any restrictions on recreational hunting. An ecological debate that ignores human use is power politics.
The central question, therefore, is not whether a population cap for wolves is needed. The question is why there is no ecological limit to hunting pressure. As long as this question remains unanswered, any discussion about #speciesconservation is incomplete and politically distorted

From a perspective critical of hunting, #trophyhunting is emblematic of a profound failure of #wildlife conservation and ethical treatment of wild #animals. The marketing and pricing of kills reduce highly developed, social animals like elephants and lions to mere consumer goods for wealthy hunting tourists. According to many #animalwelfare organizations, this practice not only violates German animal welfare law but also fundamental principles of #speciesconservation.

On December 8, 2025, a glance at the news reveals the same pattern across three continents: hobby hunters, the trophy lobby, and political majorities systematically disregard science, ethics, and #speciesconservation.
From the #wolf culling in Swiss hunting reserves to the planned wolf hunting law in Germany and the #elephant trophy in Botswana, wild #animals are becoming pawns in day-to-day politics.
