The Nazi Youth Movement was called the Hitler Youth (in German die Hitlerjugend).
The Hitler Youth was the soldiers in the SS who were not yet over the age of 18___They were a kind of Nazi party equivalent to the boy scouts. They were not 'soldiers in the SS'.
The first two countries to go into WW2 were Nazi Germany and Poland prior to the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany.
This is most certainly not true, as Nazi Germany had the world's strictest animal protection laws at that time (even vivisection, making animals act in movies, and force feeding was banned). Goering stated on radio that anyone who performed vivisection would be put into a concentration camp, and so it is certainly absurd to think that the actual Hitler Youth would have been allowed to kill innocent animals.
The exact number of members of the Hitler Youth organization varies, depending on the source. However many sources agree that there were at least 2,300,000 members in 1933. By 1936 there were more than five million members, and by 1940 there were more than 8 million members. The members were children as young as 10 up to teenagers, almost all of Germany's teenagers being members.
