Proposition de loi visant à interdire la pratique de la chasse à courre, à cor et à cri

This is a French private member's bill, a proposition de loi ordinaire, in the National Assembly during the 15th legislature. It would prohibit the traditional practice of chasse à courre, a form of hunting in which hounds chase and pursue a wild animal, usually a stag or boar, followed on horseback or on foot. The bill reflects longstanding debate in France about animal welfare and the ethics of this hunting method. The bill would apply to hunting groups and packs that practise chasse à courre, and to the animals targeted by it. Hunters and rural communities who take part in these traditions would be directly affected. Based on the title alone, the bill's exact scope and penalties cannot be determined.
