In France, there exist several ways of driving out. Without nothing justifying it, those which are supposed “to manage” the wildlife of our country can choose among a panel of processes of settings in scene for their slaughters. The objective is clearly that this activity remains ludic, whatever the tastes of each one…
Authorized modes of hunting
The French law authorizes “hunting with shooting with firearms or the arc, the hunt or hunting, hunting for the flight with raptors and the traditional huntings authorized with traditional machines. ” (Source: ONCFS) Some only drive out or groups some, and helped or not of dogs and pipe cleaners. Among these various modes of hunting, one can recall that the hunt, considered as extremely cruel, was prohibited in England. Hunting for the arc as for it, was officially authorized only in 1995, in spite of the opposition of the defenders of the animals.
Hunting in question
There exist three types of hunt or hunting. In the 3 cases, it implies the use of dogs drawn up especially and specialists in the driven out species. It is them which capture, even devour the animal, in general after having exhausted it. The hunting of large animals is practised with horse and relates to the stag, the roe-deer, wild boar or the fox. The small game hunting is done with foot and relates to hare or rabbit. Lastly, hunting under ground consists in “unearthing” the badger, the fox or the coypu. The dogs drive back the animal at the bottom of its burrow and the hunters dig for tearing off some using a metal grip. Following these huntings the setting with death takes place. Not less cruel, it can be done by a knife, a scraping-knife of hunting, a weapon fire or even a spear! And one often reports the case of renardeaux, completed with blows of heel… The stress and the suffering related to this type of hunting, since the continuation until exhaustion and the setting with death, are inadmissible. Imagine the panic of the vixen wanting to protect its small, the attacked badger and follow-up by dogs until the bottom of its burrow!
