In Nancy, the natural history museum recovers a stuffed tigress seized by the courts from an individual. The animal, protected by the Washington Convention, did not have any certificate attesting to its origin.
The owner, who nevertheless financed the taxidermy intervention, was not sanctioned. “A priori, thisTigress was born in captivity and died of old age. But her age could not be determined because she no longer has her real teeth,” says Lucile Guittienne.
