Defend the rurality
A complaint is filed, the neighbor in question has acknowledged the facts and a trial will take place at the end of the year. But the family Verney wished to have the case on another ground, ” to ensure the defense of the animals, our rural territories in the face of behavior calling into question the very life in our campaigns ! “says the text of the petition” Justice for the rooster Marcel “. Nearly 55,000 people have signed it. For the family, the death of Marcel is ” an act of extreme cruelty “. The foundation 30 Million friends supports the approach. For Sebastian Verney, ” the countryside is a place of life, not a museum “.
The petition “Justice for the rooster Marcel”, adds : “our rural activities, our animals, have the right to exist and live in peace, respected in their specificities and in their being. We are in the Ardeche, a proud rural area, then that will be the next victim : the song of the turtle doves, the harvest of the wheat, the tomatoes that grow, the braying of the donkey, the sound of our bell towers or the implementation of pasture for our cows ? “. The petition is addressed to the ex-minister of Agriculture Didier Guillaume and various associations for the protection of animals.
