The State Council also saves the Jj4 and Mj5 bears:«The culling is disproportionate»

Now the TAR will express its opinion during the hearing on the merits

The Third Section of the Council of State accepted the precautionary appeal and suspended the measures to cull the bears Jj4 And Mj5, contested by animal rights associations.The lives of the two specimens, which have entered the center of the news in recent months, especially after the death of Andrea Papi, she is safe.The order will be sent to the TAR to schedule the hearing on the merits.According to the judges «the provision ordering the slaughter of the animal appears disproportionate and not consistent with the supranational and national regulations which require the adequate evaluation of intermediate measures, without prejudice to the captivation ordered to protect public safety, the order to kill the animal".The provision also specifies that «the supranational regulatory framework requires that the culling measure represents the last resort and that exceptions to the prohibitions on killing protected species can be authorized 'provided that no other valid solution exists' and in only limits deriving from European and international constraints".
