France sans chasse

There exists a French  association that is working to end la chasse in France. Here is their website. According to the site, one of the reasons to banish it is that it is an ecological disaster.  If you want to support this organization check out the website.  They offer some interesting facts, i.e.  in a weekend of hunting 300,000 birds are killed in France by hunters. this doesn't include birds  indirectly killed by eating the lead pellets polluting the environment. The pellets are the same size as small bits of pebbles that birds naturally eat to aid their digestion.
