Interdire la chasse à courre

Stage committeeUpdated 7d ago

This is an ordinary bill tabled in the French National Assembly (15th legislature) that would prohibit chasse à courre, the traditional form of hunting in which a pack of hounds chases a quarry such as deer or boar until it is exhausted or caught. Supporters of a ban cite animal welfare concerns, while the practice is defended as cultural heritage. The title indicates the bill's core aim, but the metadata does not show its detailed provisions. If adopted, the bill would primarily affect hunting associations, licensed hunters, and packs of hounds that take part in this form of hunting, as well as rural communities where such events are traditional. Animal welfare groups would be among the supporters. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text.
