A hunter without an orange vest who is about to shoot across a road and assumes completely.
Here is the surreal video posted on Facebook by naturalist Pierre Rigaux this Sunday and titled “Lunar Hunter”.
This fierce opponent of hunting claims to have questioned and filmed the man the day before on departmental 2, while a hunt was underway in the Drôme.
“He is posted on one side of the road and pulls the animals that arrive on the other side across the road”, explains Pierre Rigaux in the preamble before broadcasting his exchange with the hunter.
" But do not worry.
If there is a car or a bicycle, I have practically 360-degree visibility, ”quietly explains the man with his face blurred, confirming that he is planning to shoot through the departmental road.
"As long as the dogs don't scream..."
“Yes, but above that we risk nothing.
The bullet will cross the road but don't be afraid, we are not assassins and we know what we are doing anyway, he says before laughing.
(…) There, if I shoot, I go over the car, over everything you want”.
The naturalist revives it by evoking the possible arrival of a cyclist “who does not make noise”.
"Anyway, as long as the dogs don't cry, there's no problem," replies the hunter.
The hunter recognizes during the discussion that it is not authorized and specifies that some of his colleagues are also installed like him along the road a little lower.
France Bleu Drôme Ardèche
reports that hunters do not have the right "to shoot near a public road, only on the condition of being with their backs and not being on the right-of-way of the road (c i.e. shoulders, ditches and embankments).
Wearing an orange vest is also mandatory during a “big game hunting action”.
Rémi Gandy, president of the Drôme hunters' federation, contacted by local radio, condemned the behavior of the hunter and promised sanctions.
