BB comes out of the woods. Former actress Brigitte Bardot launches an SOS for the wild boar Rillette. In a message posted on December 16 on social networks, the former cinema glory asks that he be saved from death.
His message written in blue ink in handwritten letter, with his animal rights foundation in the header, could not be clearer. “Help. I am asking for mercy from Rillette, this little sow saved by Élodie Cappé who is perfectly “in the rules”. Vaccinated and sterilized.
What are the monsters who demand his euthanasia? The word “human” disgusts me. This little animal has the right to live, it is even a duty, she is innocent! Euthanasia is a crime! We are governed by assassins!”
His message, published around 5:15 p.m., was widely reposted. More than 600 times in an hour. Which adds to an online petition to save the animal. This collected more than 80,000 signatures in a few days. On the initiative of theassociation of small lodges.
“To avoid unacceptable distress to our Chaouce wild boar sow, mascot owned by our member, Elodie Cappé, on a 20 hectare equestrian farm. This farm, in reassuring isolation, 3km from any neighbor, has adapted an appropriate infrastructure for this farm. To comply with the rules of French legislation, Ms. Cappé has created an enclosure of 1,200 square meters dedicated to our wild boar.
