From Danube Delta, with blood.





Hello, everyone.

Howdy stranger, what you are about to read is not quite a fairytale, but a harsh reality reflected through a horrible spectrum.What you are about to find out will not make your evening more entertaining, but will aware you of the fact that crime does exist.And it is not uncommon in nowadays society to speak about criminality as if it is a regular issue.It is not uncommon either to pretend we love animals, that we protect them and above all, we treat them as we would like to be treated, as our equals.

But is it the real case scenario?Do we really care about animals?Do we really love them the way we pretend to be loved?How far would we go if one day we find out on the internet that in some place in this darn big world, some creatures are forced to endure ordeals beyond any human way of understanding?How could we make justice and by which means?Is slaughter and torture the way we, the almighty sensible creatures expess our love and care towards the other living forms?

These are just a few questions which might randomly strike your mind if one day, all on a sudden, you find some tragic images depicting wild animals enduring great pains, beyond any morale.

Two days ago, i was enjoying my 3 o clock coffee, when i got an invitation on facebook, letting me know the last wild horses in Europe, to be more specific, those from Danube Delta, Letea Forest(Romania) have been caught, stabbed and slaughtered and injured by the locals, being kept in very poor conditions, facing starvation and dehydration.

The video bellow will help you to envisage the way the wild horses use to live in their natural habitat.

Wild horses roaming free in Letea Forest

71 wild horses have been kept for more than one week in miserable conditions, being exposed to both physical abuse and psychological stress.

Maybe you wonder now what is the purpose of this horrible ordeal the animals had and unfortunatelly they still have to pass through.

Well, in some parts of Romania, mainly in iolatd countryside areas such as Letea Forest, people still live in the dark ages, thinking that anything could be sold, any living creature could be killed, any human value could be lost.The locals of Letea injured the animals without assuming they are slaughtering endemic creatures which cannot be found in any other part of Europe.They caught the wild horses in order to sell them to an abattoir from Oradea(western Romania) for less than £20 each.From there, the meat will be transported to countries like Italy, France or Belgium and each kilo would cost no more than 3 euro.

A wild horse could be bought for no more and no less than £19.

Its future?Salami and sausages in the Italian, French and Belgian butcheries as delicatessen.

The wild horses of the Danube Delta are a true natural wonder and a priceless national heritage which attracted and fascinated tourists throughout the years.In 2010, The Guardian wrote about the charm and amazing grace these wild creatures have.They were roaming free the lands and the surounding marshlands.
They were free and they did not whitness no bareer, a true symbol of freedom and grace.


Now they face an undeserved death.In the last 48h, people from all over the country signed a petition, asking for help from both national and international non governamental organisations which get involved in the protection of wildlife species and environment.

The local authorities from Tulcea County, where the Danube Delta is situated are very corrupted and their man interest is to earn as much money as they can.Their greed and lust for money know no boundaries.They are the ones who are held responsible for the slaughter of the 71 wild horses of the Letea Forest and therefore, their hands are painted with blood.


We ask you, howdy stranger, who had the patience to read this article, to get involved in our fight against animal slaughter and abuse, against degradation of human values and above all, against CRIME!We ask for justice and we stand our cause so that these magnificent creatures, the last wild horses of Europe have the right to live!


Do spread this message and pass it to all those who are against crime and animal slaughter!Let s make justice for the the last wild horses of Europe!Do not let them die so you could show to your own children these animals roaming free and ALIVE in 15 years time.The Danube Delta will still be there.The stillness of the wild horses is unfortunatelly uncertain.

From Danube Delta,
