Unlike domestic animals or captive wild animals, wild animals still in nature currently have no rights in France. Presently, 77 percent of French people believe that wild animals in the wild should have the same rights as domestic animals, and should be recognized as living and sentient beings.
Would you be in favor or not in favor of recognizing the status of living and sentient being for all wild animals?
The question was phrased by the source as follows:
"En France, contrairement à l’animal domestique ou à l’animal sauvage captif, l’animal sauvage dans la nature n’a toujours pas de droit. Seriez-vous favorable ou pas favorable à la reconnaissance du statut d’être vivant et sensible pour tous les animaux sauvages ?"
