Serbia massacre
A nation that tries so desperately to align itself with the EU but fails so miserably in terms of animal welfare! EuroBasketball in Belgrade - 2005, were stained with blood - and they still continuing with the slaughter of companion animals - the whole country and the streets of Serbia are soaked with blood - it's worse than ever!

The 2005 European Basketball Championship in Belgrade, Sponsored by FIBA (Federation Internationale de Basketball) is stained with blood due to the massive and brutal extermination of thousands of companion animals.
Prior to the current Serbian administration, Serbian politicians promised to improve animal welfare laws; yet horrifying conditions for all animals still exists in Serbia today.
These same politicians ignore the constant please and cries from their own citizens and individuals abroad including Brigitte Bardot, to stop the torture and murder of animals.
There are volumes of photographs depicting the barbaric methods used by the Serbian government to administer animal control. These animal control methods were employed at an accelerated rate prior to the European Basketball Championship.
This past year, these brutal killings have accelerated in the capital city of Belgrade in what seems to be a state sponsored massacre. Memories of the "war" die hard! The government's objective appears to be to present the city as an attractive destination for tourists visiting sporting events such as the "Belgrade Marathon" and the "European Basketball Championship".
According to reports from advocates on the ground, what is even more astonishing, is the lack of coverage by the Serbian media of this everyday slaughter. Source

- Serbian streets continue to be inundated with companion animals. Animal control in Serbia consists of:
- Paying hunters a bounty for each animal killed (hunters present the animal's tail for payment),
- Poison such as T-61 and Kreozan which kills by suffocation,
- Drenching the animal with gasoline and burning them to death
- Other barbaric methods such as beating, stoning and hanging.
