The nomadic rally (Courre hunting crew led by Louis Turquin and Raphaël de Séroux since 2023) and the Crew of Villers-Cotterêts (Directed by Henri d’Aillières) Chased together.
“Hunting entered the village”
The collective reports that at the start of the hunt, the gendarmerie dispatches four vehicles on site to carry out identity checks in the ranks of the anti-hounds. “Small game: try to find the gendarmes later when the law is actually raped,” said Ava on the presence of the military.

Curre hunting takes a new turn around 1:30 p.m., when the hunted deer finds refuge in the village of Brie. “Hunting has entered the village,” reads Ava France’s X account.
The animal seems to have taken refuge in a garden at first, before joining a barn. AVA activists explain that the hornors invest the premises, enter the garden to dislodge the deer.


The gendarmes criticized by Ava
“For these situations, the law of 2019 (reluctantly adopted following our action) is formal: the deer must be” pardoned “,” says the collective on its social networks. ” And to continue: “If you have been following our page for a long time, you know article 7 by heart … and you know how respected it is (no). The 2019 law is trampled on and the hunt will last 3 long hours!»»
The deer then went to a pond. It is there that he is caught up in the hornors who end up shooting him, before joining the Folembray kennel.
On its social networks, the anti-chase collective in Courre is attacking the police: “The gendarmerie, so quick to control our peaceful volunteers, was completely absent at the key time when the law was actually raped by hunting Courre! To believe that, for power, chaos generated by important people is worth … “
Ava: “Curry hunting, a feudal barbarism which must disappear”
And to continue: “Either the ministerial decree of 2019 is constantly violated, and the state never reacts. Either it has been written to be systematically interpretable in the direction of hunting, and is therefore useless. In both cases, the authorities are ridiculed and showed themselves in the service of powerful and not the population. ”
To close the subject, the collective abolishes the venery today resumes its usual argument: “Curry hunt is a feudal barbarism which must disappear. For that (and given the accomplice silence of the authorities), we have only one option: popular organization! ”
