[00:00:07] Hello everyone, happy to have you back for the rest of the night
[00:00:11] impartially on the edition, here are the headlines for this news report: the pro-Iranian Houthi rebels
[00:00:14] are increasingly threatening Yemen. The
[00:00:18] Saudi capital is now clearly targeted, with
[00:00:21] oil installations near
[00:00:23] preserve them. Wendy Riyadh airport appearing to have been hit. The kingdom says for the first
[00:00:27] time that it has intercepted a ballistic missile.
[00:00:30] The capital is under attack. Saint-Pierre and Miquelon is
[00:00:33] French, that's obvious. Emmanuel
[00:00:37] Macron's words upon his arrival on the archipelago, more than
[00:00:39] 4300 km from France, a highly
[00:00:43] symbolic visit with the arrival this Sunday
[00:00:45] of Canadian Prime Minister Maccarnet. We'll see the
[00:00:49] clash, they started shooting at stakes in this
[00:00:51] report. And then we'll take you to Laos, once
[00:00:55] known as the land of elephants, but today, the species is
[00:00:58] endangered. We'll go to meet a French woman who decided
[00:01:02] to save these endangered animals.
[00:01:16] The Saudi kingdom, increasingly under pressure, Riyadh
[00:01:20] acknowledges that a ballistic missile was fired by Houthi rebels from
[00:01:23] Yemen at dawn on the capital, but assures that it was
[00:01:27] intercepted. Other attacks on the ground
[00:01:30] have also been thwarted, say the authorities, but in the
[00:01:34] images, as we will see, oil installations near
[00:01:37] the airport seem to have been hit. The story by Thibault
[00:01:41] Franceske:
[00:01:43] A thick column of black smoke rises above Riyadh's main airport
[00:01:47] Saturday morning. Not far
[00:01:49] away, an oil depot was hit after a night of alerts
[00:01:53] in the Saudi capital. The coalition led by
[00:01:57] Saudi Arabia against the Houthis in Yemen accuses them of being behind
[00:02:00] the attack. The Houthis confirm it. This is the first time
[00:02:04] since the resumption of fighting in July that Riyadh has been
[00:02:06] hit.
[00:02:10] These two large-scale military operations were carried out using
[00:02:13] a large number of ballistic missiles and drones. The first targeted
[00:02:17] the Saudi capital Riyadh, and the second targeted Aramco in
[00:02:20] Yanbu. In Yemen, fighting between the Houthi
[00:02:24] rebels, supported by Iran, and government forces, backed by Riyadh, intensified on
[00:02:28] Thursday. The Yemeni army released these images of
[00:02:32] strikes it carried out, but this is not enough to stop the armed rebel group's
[00:02:36] advance. To the east, the Houthis are advancing in the
[00:02:39] oil-rich Marib region, an important source of revenue for the
[00:02:43] Yemeni government. To the west, they have taken control of the
[00:02:47] Red Sea coast and especially the Strait of
[00:02:49] Bab-el-Mandeb, a strategic passage for global trade
[00:02:53] and especially for Saudi oil. The city of
[00:02:56] Mocha, in particular, was taken, which worries the inhabitants.
[00:03:01] "They all fight against us, they are all against Islam and Muslims and
[00:03:05] against Yemen in particular, America and everyone, we
[00:03:09] pray to God to save
[00:03:13] us." According to the United Nations, at least 11,200 people have been displaced
[00:03:17] since the resumption of fighting. Many
[00:03:19] week on the sidelines of of them have fled to Djibouti across the Red
[00:03:22] Sea.
[00:03:25] This is an unprecedented attack against freedom of the press in the United States,
[00:03:28] yet guaranteed by the...
[00:03:31] The raid with Constitution. Donald Trump has carried out his threats. Journalists from
[00:03:34] CNN and MSNBC and the Politico website were
[00:03:38] prevented this Saturday from accessing the White
[00:03:42] sleep on the floor on the House. Their badges were deactivated. The story by Thibault
[00:03:45] Franceske.
[00:03:48] An American journalist from MSNBC
[00:03:51] (XMSNBC)
[00:03:54] them on forced to do her live report from the street corner facing the White
[00:03:56] House, when she could, like her colleagues, enter before.
[00:04:00] Consequence of Donald Trump's brutal decision to ban
[00:04:05] violation of Israeli military
[00:04:05] peril, the survival of the MSNBC, CNN and Politico from the White House.
[00:04:08] again in the rest of the late edition, It's not just me, but our photographer also had his badge revoked this
[00:04:12] morning. Yesterday, our journalists were able to work inside the White
[00:04:15] House. On CNN, a presenter denounces this
[00:04:20] Oil facilities near decision. While pressure intensifies on Donald Trump, he takes his frustration out on the
[00:04:24] First Amendment. The president announces that he is banning this
[00:04:28] channel from the White House. The president has multiplied his attacks against the press
[00:04:32] since his return to power. He criticizes these three media outlets for their
[00:04:35] allegedly biased coverage of his news. Under the pretext
[00:04:38] that they are not favorable to him, he accuses them of spreading false
[00:04:42] information. When you watch CNN, it's simply
[00:04:46] false, that's why their ratings are not good. When you
[00:04:50] watch MSNBC, which was previously called MSNBC and
[00:04:53] some call MSDC for the Democratic
[00:04:56] National Committee, it's false information.
[00:05:00] And when you look at Politico, I mean the Biden administration gave them
[00:05:03] something like 8 million dollars to keep them afloat and their
[00:05:07] articles are false. Politico denounces these
[00:05:10] accusations. The three media outlets remind that this presidential
[00:05:13] decision is contrary to the First Amendment of the American
[00:05:17] Constitution which guarantees freedom of expression.
[00:05:21] Politico will continue to report
[00:05:24] news of this administration in the White House and subsequent
[00:05:27] ones. We will vigorously defend our First Amendment
[00:05:30] rights against any attempt to restrict them. The
[00:05:34] allegations that Politico received government subsidies are
[00:05:38] false and have been completely refuted.
[00:05:41] The Trump administration has already banned the Associated Press from the Oval Office
[00:05:45] for refusing to rename the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf
[00:05:49] of America as Donald Trump wishes. The agency has challenged this decision in
[00:05:53] court.
[00:05:56] And this decision has also been condemned by the White House Correspondents' Association, which urges
[00:05:59] in a statement the American president, and I quote, to
[00:06:03] immediately restore journalists' access,
[00:06:07] because this decision violates the First Amendment of the
[00:06:09] Constitution. For Donald Trump. It's a dream come
[00:06:13] true, he wrote on his social network. The security agreement found
[00:06:17] on Greenland was also welcomed by the Greenlandic
[00:06:20] and Danish authorities. They are delighted that their
[00:06:23] sovereignty is respected. After having
[00:06:26] wanted to buy and annex this autonomous Danish territory,
[00:06:30] the American president obtains permanent control
[00:06:32] of Washington over the island's security, but
[00:06:36] also the power to keep Russia and China away. We
[00:06:39] therefore see that the outlines of this agreement are still vague, but what do
[00:06:43] the local residents think already? Olivier
[00:06:47] Fessoll?
[00:06:49] After months of threats, the scenario of Greenland's annexation by the
[00:06:52] United States seems now ruled out. In the streets of
[00:06:56] Nuuk, the capital of the autonomous Danish territory,
[00:06:59] there is hesitation between relief and caution.
[00:07:02] I see nothing problematic in an agreement of this kind. There is already
[00:07:06] the Thule air base with Americans stationed there.
[00:07:10] I don't consider it a bad thing. As far as our
[00:07:13] protection is concerned,
[00:07:17] we'll see. It also depends on how the agreement is worded. We
[00:07:20] hope the leaders have concluded a good agreement, because our
[00:07:24] country must be protected both in the air and at
[00:07:27] sea.
[00:07:32] This Friday, Donald Trump announced that he had obtained permanent
[00:07:36] control over the security of this territory, as
[00:07:39] immense as it is strategic. The step aims... in particular to prevent
[00:07:43] Russia and China from establishing bases there.
[00:07:46] Washington, for its part, intends to open new ones and
[00:07:50] station more troops there. The government of the
[00:07:53] autonomous territory welcomed this agreement. On behalf of
[00:07:56] Greenland, I welcome this agreement, which will benefit not only
[00:08:00] the security of all, but also the continued development of this
[00:08:03] country. The same enthusiasm from the Danish
[00:08:06] Prime Minister. According to her, the text respects both the
[00:08:09] sovereignty of the kingdom and the right of Greenlanders.
[00:08:12] determination, a strategic partnership around a key
[00:08:16] territory. The island could become a major passage as the melting
[00:08:19] ice opens new shipping routes. Another
[00:08:22] issue: the significant reserves of rare earths in its subsoil.
[00:08:26] The agreement, which has not been made public, is to be signed next
[00:08:31] the United Nations General Assembly.
[00:08:35] An agreement also welcomed by Emmanuel Macron upon his arrival in Saint-Pierre and
[00:08:38] Miquelon, the Head of State who also hastened to affirm that this...
[00:08:42] territory of 5800 km
[00:08:45] is French, it's obvious, he said. The objective of this visit:
[00:08:49] to reaffirm France's presence at the gates of the United States. The Canadian
[00:08:53] Prime Minister is expected there in a few hours. We see the
[00:08:56] issues with Nina
[00:08:57] Mason.
[00:09:01] More than 4000 km from Paris, a small piece of France
[00:09:05] located at the gates of Canada. Saint-Pierre and
[00:09:08] Miquelon, the last French territory in North America, which Emmanuel
[00:09:12] wants to restore to its full strategic dimension. And for good
[00:09:16] reason, this archipelago of less than 6000 inhabitants is being closely
[00:09:19] scrutinized by Donald Trump, as evidenced by this fake map posted on
[00:09:23] his social network, in which the American flag covers Canada,
[00:09:27] Greenland, Mexico, the Antilles, but also Saint-Pierre and
[00:09:30] Miquelon. In this strategic region, also
[00:09:34] coveted by Russia and China, Paris therefore wants to strengthen
[00:09:37] ties with Ottawa. Emmanuel Macron is to meet him this
[00:09:40] Sunday, Prime Minister Carney, a first for a
[00:09:44] Canadian head of government. So, we are here, France
[00:09:48] is present thanks to Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, through Saint-Pierre and Miquelon here,
[00:09:52] at the heart of the
[00:09:54] global issues in this region, and this also links us with Canada, and so it will be
[00:09:58] a way to talk about the future together
[00:10:02] and to consolidate our relations in many areas. On
[00:10:05] the agenda: energy, defense, critical minerals, and
[00:10:08] strategic technology, but Emmanuel Macron will also have to face
[00:10:12] internal challenges in the territory: high costs,
[00:10:15] remoteness, aging infrastructure, and a declining
[00:10:19] population. In Miquelon, the rising sea levels also force part of
[00:10:22] the village to move to higher ground, an unprecedented
[00:10:25] relocation in France that has become one of the symbols of adaptation to
[00:10:29] climate change.
[00:10:33] And to finish the news, a little change of scenery. Now, we're taking
[00:10:37] you to Laos, once nicknamed the kingdom of a
[00:10:40] million elephants. Today, there are only 800 left, a species
[00:10:43] threatened by humans, and a French woman is trying to
[00:10:48] has created a sanctuary for endangered animals. This is a report
[00:10:51] by Arnaud Boute and Galcaron.
[00:10:55] On the banks of the Mekong in Laos, operation save the
[00:10:59] elephants. This is today the fight of
[00:11:03] this French woman, Wendy Legat crosses the
[00:11:06] river every morning to join her
[00:11:09] pachyderms, formerly in captivity, sometimes
[00:11:12] beaten, today in
[00:11:15] freedom. So there are the three females of the same
[00:11:18] family, there are my sisters on the left,
[00:11:22] Mae Ping and Mae Ning, and... has managed to
[00:11:25] buy them one by one from their owners. There's not a day where I get
[00:11:29] tired of seeing them, there's not a day where seeing them together, I don't say, finally
[00:11:33] succeeded. The French woman manages this refuge, a
[00:11:36] huge forest park. Wendy Legat therefore offers a
[00:11:40] peaceful life to elephants.
[00:11:43] Tourists pay about sixty euros to observe them. The one
[00:11:47] above is Minine, 33 years old, she's the last of the three we saved, saved
[00:11:51] from forced labor. From the moment you remove an elephant from
[00:11:55] a natural environment, there is inevitably a form of mistreatment. It's
[00:11:59] magical, it's really magical and then, well, to
[00:12:02] see all the energy deployed by Wendy
[00:12:05] to maintain
[00:12:08] these animals in their natural environment, it's
[00:12:11] it's magnificent. We were really curious to see how we
[00:12:15] could respect the animal and
[00:12:17] still do tourism with
[00:12:20] that, so that's what interested us most in this
[00:12:24] remote region of Laos, the veterinarian only visits once
[00:12:28] a month. Look at those beautiful eyes she has, she doesn't have the sun, but she has light green
[00:12:31] eyes. Yes, I'm talking about you, you're going to have
[00:12:34] the most beautiful eyes. So, you have to
[00:12:38] monitor daily for the slightest health
[00:12:40] issue. Great.
[00:12:44] You see, she has a button that's cracked, she most certainly stepped on a
[00:12:48] stone. We absolutely have to
[00:12:51] cut it. The park has six elephants and perhaps
[00:12:55] a seventh soon.
[00:12:57] You see, she's not that old, I think she's around 40 years old and they want to
[00:13:01] sell her. They're asking 38,000 dollars. We're doing an online donation
[00:13:05] appeal and we're often lucky enough to have many former visitors who support us,
[00:13:09] visitors who become patrons. That's what saved
[00:13:12] this elephant, who was long mistreated by her former
[00:13:15] owners.
[00:13:18] She has scars all over her body. They used picks to
[00:13:21] force her to move, so that's that's Mekrame, she's 60...
[00:13:25] 72 years old, she worked for 40 years in the forestry industry,
[00:13:28] pulling 3 tons of wood per day and then 15 years in the tourism
[00:13:32] industry. At 64, she still had tourists on her
[00:13:35] back. Because in Laos, the
[00:13:38] overwork in tourist activities threatens many
[00:13:41] elephants. Rides on animal backs are
[00:13:44] still allowed. This is no longer the case in Indonesia. And here,
[00:13:48] a dozen daily outings per
[00:13:51] elephant. I'm scared, but...
[00:13:55] awesome.
[00:14:02] The elephant is exploited in the forestry industry. It
[00:14:05] pulls large quantities of
[00:14:07] wood.
[00:14:12] It can pull much more, up to 500
[00:14:15] kilos.
[00:14:20] Wendy Legat's nature reserve is one of three in the
[00:14:23] country. This is insufficient. With
[00:14:26] deforestation, another
[00:14:30] species is at stake. It is estimated that there are only
[00:14:34] 800 elephants left today. The number of births is declining, consequently, the
[00:14:37] population is rapidly decreasing, and if nothing changes, all the
[00:14:41] elephants in Laos could disappear in the coming
[00:14:45] decades.
[00:14:47] That's all for now. We'll be back in 15 minutes for a new news report. See you
[00:14:51] later.
[00:15:16] These images were shot by Israeli soldiers during an intervention
[00:15:20] in late 2025 in the village of Baijin, located in
[00:15:24] Syria.
[00:15:29] Facing them were villagers who were shooting. The clashes left
[00:15:33] 13 dead on the Syrian side and six Israeli soldiers wounded.
[00:15:38] The Israeli army also arrested three men, claiming they were
[00:15:42] members of Aljama al Islamiah, a
[00:15:44] terrorist group aligned with Hamas. Among them were
[00:15:48] two brothers, Nidal and Muhammad Akasha. Their brother
[00:15:52] did belong to this group. He was killed by an Israeli
[00:15:55] strike in 2023. But the daughter of one of the two men claims that
[00:15:59] her father, like her uncle, are farmers and have no
[00:16:03] connection with
[00:16:03] terrorism.
[00:16:07] My father came home, they immediately confronted him,
[00:16:10] grabbed him, and took him out to the courtyard. He has nothing to do with
[00:16:14] anything, he works on the land. Then they went up and brought his uncle
[00:16:18] down, put them on the floor of the house,
[00:16:21] and we had weapons pointed at our heads, so we couldn't move at all. Then there was a
[00:16:26] the houses, many of us were martyred at that time. But once the
[00:16:30] clash was
[00:16:31] over, they took them away.
[00:16:37] are taken to prisons in Israel. The Israeli army has not
[00:16:40] responded to us about the charges against the Akasha brothers.
[00:16:44] According to them, they only claim to arrest individuals for whom they have
[00:16:48] reasonable suspicion of involvement in terrorist
[00:16:51] activities. Nidal Akasha was finally released on August 26th
[00:16:55] last year, 9 months after his arrest. His brother
[00:16:58] Mohammad remains detained in Israel. Since the fall of
[00:17:01] Bashar Al-Assad's regime in December 2024, the Israeli army
[00:17:05] has extended its military presence in southern Syria. It
[00:17:08] has established at least 10 military outposts and is increasing
[00:17:12] raids on Syrian territory. Six outposts are
[00:17:15] established in the buffer zone and four beyond Syrian
[00:17:18] territory. This zone, supposed to be a demilitarized
[00:17:21] no-man's land, was established after the Yom Kippur War in
[00:17:25] 1974. According to the Sigil Center, a group that
[00:17:29] documents Israeli army activities in Syria, since
[00:17:32] December 2024, at least 248 people have been
[00:17:36] arrested, most of them released after a few
[00:17:38] days. 43 are still detained. 36
[00:17:42] residents have been killed during Israeli military operations in
[00:17:45] Syria. Other families describe similar scenes to those in Baijin
[00:17:49] in several localities in southern Syria: nocturnal arrests,
[00:17:53] house searches, threatened or immobilized
[00:17:56] relatives. Hiam recounts the Israeli army's
[00:18:00] intervention at her home on the night of February 16,
[00:18:03] 2026.
[00:18:07] They hit me on my face and hands, and they took my children.
[00:18:10] They scattered everything in the house, broke the furniture. My
[00:18:14] eldest son, Hamza, 19 years old, was stripped
[00:18:18] and thrown on the ground with the dog on top of him. He was begging them to get the
[00:18:22] dog off him. My other son was in the other room, they had
[00:18:25] tied him up too.
[00:18:28] The United Nations force responsible for monitoring the ceasefire between
[00:18:32] Israel and Syria confirmed that it had observed injuries to the arm
[00:18:36] and face the next day.
[00:19:09] the Syrians. There were rooms for Syrians
[00:19:12] only and rooms for Palestinian
[00:19:15] prisoners only. I mean, they'd tell you to lie on your stomach, you'd have to
[00:19:20] concrete sometimes for an hour or so
[00:19:22] a day. They would repeat it three or four
[00:19:26] times a day. This happened daily. A commando
[00:19:28] unit would come to train
[00:19:31] raids. They would throw stun
[00:19:35] grenades. states that any harm caused to
[00:19:39] detainees constitutes a
[00:19:42] law and regulations and is therefore prohibited. It
[00:19:46] also states that the preventive detention of individuals suspected of terrorism is
[00:19:50] consistent with Israeli law. On September 9,
[00:19:53] Benjamin Netanyahu visited, along with several Israeli officials, the
[00:19:57] military positions established by Israel in southern
[00:20:00] Syria.
[00:20:31] by October 7th, and therefore the Israelis seek to prevent a
[00:20:35] military presence immediately
[00:20:37] at their borders. Does there objectively
[00:20:41] exist risks of terrorist threats and, even more so, military threats
[00:20:44] of invasion of the State of Israel by either the Syrian
[00:20:48] state or by military groups established in
[00:20:51] Syria? I don't think so, but the problem is not whether
[00:20:54] the fact actually exists, but whether the
[00:20:58] perception of this fact or this threat in Israel is
[00:21:02] important or not. The families of the detainees continue to protest
[00:21:04] regularly. They demand information about the fate of their relatives,
[00:21:08] to be able to communicate with them, and that they can be cared
[00:21:10] for.
[00:21:15] That's the end of this observers' broadcast. Don't hesitate to follow
[00:21:18] us on our social networks and find all our content on the France
[00:21:22] 24 website, under the observers' section. See
[00:21:24] you soon!
[00:21:29] It's in the weeklies with Émilie Boil today, hello Émilie,
[00:21:32] welcome, you talk a lot about artificial intelligence because that's what
[00:21:36] comes out of the weeklies this week. Yes, of course, a big
[00:21:40] week for AI, and the point is actually its
[00:21:43] front page, moreover, we discussed a fear for
[00:21:46] humanity, especially when AI escapes its
[00:21:50] control. The newspaper dedicates six or seven pages to what it calls a
[00:21:54] potential AI-pocalypse, I
[00:21:56] quote, "AIs would communicate, control cyberattacks, the latest
[00:22:00] generation of AIs sow panic." This
[00:22:04] article, I'm sorry, notably includes the words of tech bigwigs and
[00:22:07] particularly focuses on an essay by Dario Amodei, the
[00:22:11] CEO of Anthropic, titled "Pacing the Frontier," in
[00:22:15] which he advocated for a slowdown in the development of artificial
[00:22:18] intelligence, an idea supported by Sam Altman of OpenAI,
[00:22:22] Elon Musk of XAI or Grok, but not, of course, by
[00:22:26] Donald Trump who minimizes the situation and above all
[00:22:29] wishes to overtake China. And it is this arms
[00:22:33] race that is also making the front page of The Economist this
[00:22:36] week. And the big question is, can this race be stopped?
[00:22:40] The newspaper explains that America will struggle to control the development
[00:22:44] of this technology while remaining ahead of China in this frantic
[00:22:48] race. The Economist revisits the impact of technological
[00:22:51] advancements and AI in warfare, particularly following Anthropic's
[00:22:55] discoveries, which reportedly found that these models were
[00:22:59] used for malicious purposes, for example, by a Malian
[00:23:02] intelligence service that developed a mass surveillance
[00:23:06] system, or by Houthi rebels in Yemen
[00:23:09] suspected of developing software for
[00:23:12] ballistic missiles. It also seems that
[00:23:16] tech moguls are preparing for a potential AI-pocalypse.
[00:23:20] Yes, the pages of Courrier International transport us to
[00:23:23] Argentina, this time thanks to a report from the Financial Times
[00:23:27] which explains that a group of tech entrepreneurs is building
[00:23:31] a fortress in the middle of the Argentine desert.
[00:23:34] Their post-apocalyptic refuge is in the middle of an estate
[00:23:37] five times the size of Manhattan at the foot of the Andes and should
[00:23:41] soon become self-sufficient. The Financial Times journalists
[00:23:45] also spoke to one of them, Martin Warsavski, on the
[00:23:48] phone, who said, and I quote, "we are already in the midst of a third
[00:23:52] world war and having a refuge is imperative." But the number of
[00:23:55] billionaire refuges seems to be increasing. Mark
[00:23:58] Zuckerberg, for example, owns an underground shelter on his
[00:24:02] ranch in Hawaii. And according to LinkedIn founder, Reid Hoffman,
[00:24:06] several wealthy individuals in Silicon Valley have acquired a kind
[00:24:10] of apocalypse insurance. So the good news
[00:24:13] is that the architects of the end of the world will survive it. To be
[00:24:16] sure, the next apocalypse will be even cooler.
[00:24:21] H. In French news, this presidential campaign which is
[00:24:24] starting to get into full swing, Le Nouvel Obs tells us about a clash of
[00:24:28] political generations, yes and especially on the left, according to
[00:24:32] Le Nouvel Obs, nearly one in two young people want to vote for Mélenchon in the
[00:24:35] presidential election, a choice that shifts according to the newspaper and
[00:24:38] provokes heated debates. This article
[00:24:41] here that you see explains that seducing young voters is a key tactic
[00:24:45] for the Mélenchonist party which tries, and I quote, "to attract a
[00:24:49] generation that... that prefers the promise of a break with the governing
[00:24:53] left. LFI would bet among other things, on
[00:24:56] inverted socialization, that is to say, a movement of
[00:24:59] political influence of children on their parents and grandparents,
[00:25:02] the opposite of traditional political transmission, and
[00:25:06] girls are also massively investing in social networks where the movement is a
[00:25:10] great success. For example, 3 days after its publication, a clip
[00:25:13] of a debate posted by Mélenchon reached 80,000 views, while
[00:25:17] an excerpt from the same debate only got 4,000 views when
[00:25:21] it was published by Edouard Philippe, but
[00:25:24] she obviously can't win only with young people, the party still has to
[00:25:28] convince the rest of the voters, so the newspaper warns families on the left
[00:25:32] that Sunday meals risk being a little spicy.
[00:25:36] We're going to leave you with this rather improbable information, as you
[00:25:40] told me, you're going to introduce us to a particularly strange
[00:25:43] library, yes, a rather strange subject in the Guardian Weekly. We will talk about
[00:25:47] politics, but another subject has caused a lot of family debate, and that's pets.
[00:25:51] So, if, for example, you want a dog or a cat, but
[00:25:54] your partner is not convinced, the San Diego Natural
[00:25:58] History Museum has the solution. You can go rent one of their 100...
[00:26:02] 100 taxidermied animals, such as this coyote you can
[00:26:06] see, or even a cheetah's head. This taxidermy
[00:26:09] library was initially intended for schools and
[00:26:12] students, but it is open to everyone, and it's an idea that is
[00:26:16] apparently quite popular. The newspaper explains that 186 people would have
[00:26:19] rented almost 4,000 specimens last year, 60 of whom were
[00:26:23] schools, 30% were associations, and the last 10%
[00:26:27] were individuals, artists, or amateur
[00:26:30] individuals, so there you go. If you want to test the concept of a pet
[00:26:34] at home, you have to go to San Diego. I understand the pedagogical aspect,
[00:26:37] but as for individuals, no, no, no.
[00:26:40] Protect nature, start there. Go into nature, listen to the real birds,
[00:26:44] their songs, and you will feel much better. You won't need
[00:26:48] taxidermied animals. Thank you very much, Émilie, for this column. That was in the
[00:26:51] weeklies.
