Here in Spain, the protest was called by the ‘No to Hunting’ (No a la Caza or NAC) platform and thousands of people turned out in 47 cities around the country. They were joined by greyhounds and other canine breeds commonly used in hunting, dogs which are subject to a disproportionate level of abuse and abandonment.

Ms Rojo argued that the lobby has pressured the government to remove certain provisions from the legislation, resulting in a lack of protection for animals. She called for a comprehensive animal welfare law that prioritises the well-being of animals over economic interests. In addition to addressing hunting practices, the NAC also highlighted the issue of drought in Spain, which poses a threat to wildlife.
