Forestry and  Wildlife Conservation Department

Maria Zachwatowicz  

In relation to the decision of the regional chief executive officer of the Wildlife Conservation Department  in Kielce we  protest against this decision and we are together with Marcin Popiel, the owner of the herd  cit. :…we have been in buffalo farming for 14,5 years. We never observed any buffaloes’ escape from the enclosed area. It is monitored closely, Yea, there are cubs which can cross somehow but they immediately come back to their mothers, it’s natural. I don’t understand this decree. It is an absurd for us. We asked many people,  knowing the subject, about their opinion and each of them agreed – this decision is an absurd. Our herd threatens European bisons… - Officials suggest we have our economical reasons, our business and they want to protect the animals. It is not true – we love the animals, take care of them. If it is decided by a judge we will probably  close the object and sell it. We don’t let kill the animals –let officials come here and do it…”
