Animal rights protests in France

Overview

The French film "Le Triangle d’or" premiered in late July, featuring a captive, trained panther named Ranny. This sparked protests from the animal rights organization Projet Animaux Zoopolis (PAZ), which condemned the use of wild animals in film as exploitation and anachronistic. PAZ launched a petition to relocate Ranny to a refuge, gathering over 26,900 signatures.

Following these initial protests, PAZ expanded its activities to include demonstrations in Antibes and Cannes to raise awareness about animal captivity in the entertainment industry through leaflet distribution. Additionally, the organization has been conducting broader campaigns in France against the commercialization of animals, including opposing pet fairs in Fontainebleau.
