Excitement to sausage with bear meat in Carinthia – Diepresse.com



Animal rights activists have displayed the operator of a Carinthian online shop and criticize him as irresponsible. The dealer did not comment.

Because he acts with sausage that contains bear meat, the operator of a Carinthian online shop has now attracted the trouble of animal rights activists. Animal protection Austria filed a complaint against the dealer, the organization announced on Friday in a press release. Because: not only killing, but also the trade of strictly protected animal species is prohibited according to the Carinthian Nature Conservation Act.

64 euros per kilogram cost the sausages, which in addition to pig bacon also contain bear meat, emerges from the relevant section of the website – it was still online on Friday morning. The sausages come from the Slovenian Soča valley, it says. And, what the animal rights activists also outraged: advertised and flirted not only with the « extremely pleasant » taste, but also with rather questionable attributions: « I don’t know whether the bear has a positive impact on potency. But a hunter who has ever killed a bear swears on the power of the bear meat. »

« Like a later April Fool’s joke »

« The fact that one still comes up with the idea that the consumption of bear meat could have an increasing potency reads like an April Fool’s joke. By such demand, the shooting of the endangered bear is promoted, » criticized Michaela Lehner from Tierschutz Austria. And Leona Fux added: « The brown bear has already been eradicated twice in Austria. It is irresponsible and illegal to make profits with the meat of these endangered animals. » Animal protection Austria also referred to current friction with the state of Carinthia, such as the shooting permits for wolf or beavers: « Nature conservation laws are triggered here in times of the biodiversity crisis. »
