If the oceans die, we die (Captain Paul Watson) I have been following Captain Paul Watson for many years, years during which I have cried many times seeing rakish, indescribable scenes. A great dream of mine, was to one day be capable of being not only a spectator behind a screen but to experience on …

Let’s mobilize to prevent the slaughter of animals * mobilitiamoci per impedire stragi di animali
See the post in the blog "amici del lupo svizzera italiana" This is the translation of a derogatory article against the “protectors of Nature”. It is really true that apples never fall far from the tree: if I remember correctly, Mr. Berta, who wrote the article of 5.8.2020 “Wolf, predations and true solutions”, or “I …
What about the Wolf? * Cosa dire del Lupo?
. Over the centuries, in different cultures, the wolf has taken on opposite meanings. Revered as a divinity or insulted as a devil, he often paid for his crimes with his life. During the Middle Ages in Europe, myth and superstition assumed significant importance. For example, we believed in werewolves. Religion exploited this fearful image …

(English) To order the publication with my short contribution La generazione precedente, la mia per intenderci, ha originato una situazione climatica instabile che è esplosa all'improvviso in una vera e propria emergenza globale. È stata un'onda d'urto, uno shock tale da scuotere in modo irreversibile le generazioni dei più giovani, ma non solo loro. È …

Is it really going to be an “happy new year 2020”?
Australia shows us what will happen to the whole planet, in ecological terms: an ecatomb of sacrificed lives, living creatures without distinction. Be that as it may, men have somehow been able to be evacuated to safe areas... and what about the animals? For the half a billion living creatures that burned in the flames, …

La fauna selvatica non dovrebbe forse essere patrimonio nazionale?
(Corriere del Ticino 22.10.2019) Nel 1800 sono scomparse in Svizzera diverse specie, sterminate poiché ritenute pericolose o semplicemente poiché l’uomo ha sottratto loro lo spazio vitale: nel 1871 in Ticino è stato ucciso l’ultimo lupo, nel 1894 in Vallese l’ultima lince, nel 1904 in Grigioni l’ultimo orso. Nel 1985 si è estinto il gipeto barbuto, …

That soy is almost exclusively harvested and exported to feed livestock on factory farms around the world, an easy and cheap way to feed animals and get them fat for slaughter quickly.

Why kill for sport? * Perché uccidere per sport?
What do the white partridge and wolf have in common? Much has been written in recent times about the white partridge; those who protect it, those who are ready to cite by law articles that determine their freedom of killing, as it is legitimate for the pros and cons to be expressed, in the …

Amphibians in danger * gli anfibi in pericolo
. Questo video mostra alcune rane salvate dalla strada a Magadino, una delle quali visibilmente gravemente ferita che ancora voleva raggiungere la libertà. È così orribilmente difficile guardare le rane spiaccicate per strada perché alla gente non importa e invece di rallentare, danno gas. Abbiamo bisogno di volontari per aiutarci, specialmente quando piove o con …

A matter of choice * una questione di scelta
As much I read about it, as much I see that kind of movies… there is a strange deep feeling arising in my being. Sometimes I'm up to think "Gee, I can't bear anything more, like this cruelty without any meaning…" And I have to force myself to watch to the end the movie, with …

Protection dogs for flocks * cani da protezione per le greggi
The presence of large predators (in this case I refer especially to the wolf) always have a disproportionate impact on public opinion, and this is caused by the loss of habit to live with them. More than a century ago, in our territory wolves were present in the valleys and pre-Alpine areas and cohabitated with …

Environmental imbalance and biodiversity * Disequilibrio ambientale e biodiversità
The philosopher Carlo Sini has simplified the problem of biodiversity decline by stating that it is a disequilibrium between "prey" and "predators" that in the long run will cause the collapse of an entire ecosystem. But what is an ecosystem, also called an ecological unit? It is a set of living organisms of plants and …
