Culture and safety of hunting widely seen to be on trial too after Morgan Keane, 25, died while cutting wood on his land
Two hunters have appeared in court in the French town of Cahors accused of the manslaughter of a young man mistaken for a boar, in a case where the culture and safety of French hunting are widely seen to be on trial too.
Morgan Keane, 25, died after he was hit in the chest while cutting wood on his own land near Calvignac in the Lot, south-west France, in December 2020. The hunter who fired the fatal shot, Julien Féral, 35, said he mistook Keane for a wild boar.
