Yet another migrating birds slaughter

[rolf]

This time in Egypt, the scale of which is staggering.

Translation from German.

Petition against Bird Slaughter in Egypt
Stops the capture and shooting of European migratory birds in Egypt!

To the Government of the Arab Republic of Egypt, President Mohamed Morsi, head of government Hisham Kandil to the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany, Chancellor Angela Merkel



in Germany, the public learned of the appalling extent of Vogelfnags in spring 2013. During the autumn migration extends an unbroken series of bird nets over more than 700 kilometers along the Egyptian Mediterranean coast. Every autumn there caught at least ten million migratory birds. Birds that reach after crossing the Mediterranean Egypt exhausted, thus have little chance to reach their winter quarters and return next spring to breed in Europe. These water birds are caught in lakes and large birds shot at will with guns.
