Micha died on the 12th November
After a few days’ antibiotics were discontinued to see if he could regain his strength by himself, Micha's health then deteriorated sharply. He would have to be anesthetized to undergo surgery and tests.
After a few days’ antibiotics were discontinued to see if he could regain his strength by himself, Micha’s health then deteriorated sharply. He would have to be anesthetized to undergo surgery and tests. Several days were necessary before the Tanière could recive this permission…Micha never woke up. He had tumours everywhere, even in his brain.
At
the beginning of September, we had already denounced the conditions of extreme misery in which he and his companions were living in at
their winter quarters of the Poliakov’s, in Loir-et-Che. The
Minister of Ecology, Élisabeth Borne, had then discovered like the
rest of the public that his paws were infested with maggots, his
breathing was difficult and then she chose to intervene on his behalf.
Micha
left behind him Bony and Glasha, whose suffering is evident, probably
less glaring but equally serious, and Mina the little monkey and
several parrots, horses and a dromedary, the of which has just died
…
Even
so, he still lived a real bears life be it only for a few weeks or
so, a real bear’s life, eating until he was full, having recovered
weight and a well-tempered character. All this after suffering
horribly for hours, days, weeks, months, years…
But
for the officials, the Prefect, the veterinarian and trainers, who
have for too long permitted that no improvement takes place for the
animals of the Poliakov’s, will they eventually be held
accountable! Several law suits are ongoing, including one on November
28th, we will be facing the Prefect of Loir-et-Cher Administrative
Court in Orleans.
For twenty years we have been demanding the liberation of the Poliakov’s
bears. For almost two months we have been demanding that Bony, Glasha
and the other animals are released from their infamous jails. For
twenty years we have been calling for the cessation of the
exploitation of animals in circuses. How many more deaths will there
be before the publication of a ministerial decree prohibiting this
medieval practice ?
