The events took place this Wednesday, November 6, in Isenay, a town in Nièvre. They are reported by France 3 Bourgogne/Franche-Comté. A hunter killed a competition mare which was located on private property. A gendarmerie investigation is obviously underway to try to find out how such an accident could have occurred.
According to the breeder, cited by the same source: the animal “was killed in a place where they were necessarily in the meadow” et “There are private property signs everywhere, there is no room for error.”
An estimated value of 30,000 euros
The hunter must therefore have known that he was on private property, according to him. Angry, the woman who claims to be “pro-hunting” does not understand how her mare was shot 70 meters away in open, featureless terrain. “Thatshe adds, can't be an accident. An accident is a ricocheting bullet or something, but here it's a guy who entered private property, saw a herd of horses and fired.”
The breeder of the mare – worth an estimated 30,000 euros and who had been training for 8 years – decided to file a complaint. Just like the owner of the meadow. The hunter tells him that he was aiming for a wild boar.
