“These are the worst images we have shot! », Is indignant Brigitte Gothière, the co-founder of L214. The video, broadcast this Thursday by the association for the defense of animals and shot in a breeding farm of Lichos foie gras (Pyrénées-Atlantiques), raises the heart.
Ducks live in broken cages, surrounded by the corpses of their decaying fellows. On the ground, a thick layer of excrement, maggots, rats ... the breeding conditions are completely unsanitary.
L214 files a complaint and demands the immediate and definitive closure of this company. The Ministry of Agriculture has requested the "formal notice" of the breeding.
