Parmesan: Made with animal rennet
Unfortunately, Parmesan is always made with animal rennet, as cheese from a specific region must be produced according to a standardized recipe in order to bear the name.
Animal rennet from calf stomachs
Parmesan cheese is made with animal rennet, an enzyme derived from the fourth stomach lining of animals The animal is typically killed during this process.
Plant-based alternatives
Some dairies use microbial or plant-based rennet. Nowadays it is easier than ever to eat without animal products. More on the topic of vegan nutrition and animal rights.

More on the subject of recreational hunting: The scientific evidence is presented in the overview Studies on the Effects of Recreational Hunting.
The position of IG Wild beim Wild: IG Wild beim Wild rejects recreational hunting. Our model is the canton of Geneva, which has managed without recreational hunting since 1974: without hunting seasons, without hunting dogs, without driven hunts, without high seats, without the animal cruelty and crime that go hand in hand with hunting season elsewhere. What has worked there for over fifty years disproves every position paper by JagdSchweiz. An association that bases its policy on claims it refutes in its own documents is not a professional organisation, but a factory for misinformation.
