In a video, one of the shameless hunters shows dozens of killed birds thrown on the floor.
Rabat – The National Society for Hunting, Sustainable Development has strongly denounced the alleged hunt of more than 1,400 quails in Marrakech in just one day by several men from the Gulf.
One of the men filmed himself as he was showing dozens of quails on the floor. The man was speaking khaliji (Gulf Arabic), while he was expressing satisfaction with the hunt.
In response, the National Society for Hunting posted a statement on its Facebook page, describing the hunt as a “massacre.”
“ A video documenting the massacre of Gulf Arabs against the right of livestock on the outskirts of Marrakech spread a wave of anger among citizens and the National Society for hunting.”
The organization also called for the opening of the investigation into the case.
The statement said that the act also caused frustration among a number of hunting associations in Morocco, which denounced the incident after they received the video.
The organization urged the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries to issue a statement to condemn the action.
