FOR A RADICAL* REFORM OF HUNTING
Receiver(s) : Emmanuel Macron (Président de la République)
*Radical: adjective Aiming at acting upon the deep-rooted cause of what one wants to change
In France, hunting kills every year 45 million born free or bred in farms wild animals, not to mention the collateral victims, humans and animals alike.
Hunting is neither leisurely nor a way of life !
And it is not by replacing terms such as « kill » or « slaughter » with others like « manage », « withdraw » or « serve » that the activity will be less cruel to animals or less damaging to Nature.
It is high time such a destructive activity is banned.
In the meantime, here are ten criteria to reform this activity:
- An independent hunting police;
- A ban of hunting species with a precarious conservation status ;
- A ban of hunting during the breeding season ;
- A ban on killing traps ;
- The end of « traditional » hunting methods (glue, dead fall traps for birds, snares, hunting on lacs, hunting on the slopes …) ;
- A ban on underground hunting for all species ;
- A ban on hunting with hounds for all species ;
- A ban on hunting in protected areas (National Parks, Natural Reserves, Biological Reserves) ;
- 2 day a week without hunting or trapping (including Sundays) and during the whole of the school holidays;
- Yearly compulsory health’s check to obtain a hunting licence including an eye test.
We, the undersigned, require alongside the association One Voice a radical reform of Hunting!
Love of nature does not rhyme with destruction, degradation and animal suffering but with respect and wonderment.
