France bans circus animals and mink farms, but not bull fighting
#2
Like so many times in history, progress has has to be made in steps. The law passed by the LREM Govt. is real progress in the right direction. As you correctly say, other issues have had to be left for a later time, as trying to put too much into one bill would have risked the whole project failing to get a majority.

Bullfighting is restricted to a few towns in the very south of France. There is none in the rest of the country. The fight continues to get it banned and we will get there soon.

Hunting is a difficult one to get banned. Many French people are opposed to it, but there is a strong hunting lobby. I think that a ban will come with time, as it is mostly older people who still do hunting and young people show little interest or are opposed.

As for the USA and Canada - what do you think the prospects of a ban on hunting are there, Catherine?
