“Death to the bears”, these words were inscribed, in the night from Tuesday to Wednesday, in large and in red on the facade of the offices of Animal Cross, an association for the protection of animals, installed in Pau.
"The doormat in front of the front door was found soaked in gasoline, suggesting an attempted destruction by fire," adds the association in a Facebook post.
The fence was also damaged, as the perpetrator (s) forced it into it.
The association filed a complaint
"This is undoubtedly a reaction to the press release published on February 5, in which Animal Cross and bear associations welcomed the Council of State's decision banning the scaring of bears," still considered to be in an "unfavorable" state of conservation within the meaning of the Habitat Directive and in critical danger of extinction, ”analyzes the association which lodged a complaint.
The structure strongly reiterates its commitment so that bears have their place in the Pyrenees and calls on local elected officials to support them more clearly.
