The National Nature Reserve of the Ramières should not be reopened to the hunt!
One Voice leads a nonviolent fight to defend animal rights and respect all life forms. The organization operates independently and is thus free to speak and act freely.
It’s been six years since the magnificent reserve of the Ramières had become a real sanctuary for animals. But here, the public authorities have yielded, for the umpteenth time, in front of the lobby for hunters. We write to the Ministry of Ecology asking for the urgent adoption of a new decree to protect this site. Please sign and share the petition launched by the Citizens and Nature Collective in Val de Drôme
This
reserve which is on the course of the beautiful river Drôme, is the
largest wetland in the department of the same name. It houses otters,
beavers, and many birds. Especially in migration period (hence
hunting …). It is a fantastic reservoir of biodiversity on one of
the last rivers in the natural bed of France.
Since
2013 and for 3 years, hunting was no longer allowed, intolerable for
hunters. Their federation appealed against this common sense
decision. Following a procedural irregularity, they got their way and
cancelled the order.
Unfortunately,
the authorities did not see fit to take over a new owner, once again
in front of the hunters.
One
Voice joins the “Citizens and Nature Collective in Val de Drôme”
which initiated a petition demanding that the reserve of the Ramières
remains a protected area. We are writing to the Ministry of
Ecological Transition asking for an urgent adoption of a new order.
This
beautiful place must remain the haven of peace it has become for the
animals living there and should not be disturbed by those who
continue to want us to believe that they defend the Nature armed
rifles.
