Who filmed this wolf, running at night on the road ?

#HÉRAULT – A car following a wolf running on a road, lit by headlights, near homes. The video was sent to the Hérault Departmental Directorate of Territories and the Sea (DDTM) and the French Office for Biodiversity (OFB). It appears in the context of the attacks on sheep, attributed to a wolf, observed on the night of December 26 to 27, in Saint-Bauzille-de-Montmel, about twenty kilometers from Montpellier. DDTM and OFB officials are looking for the author of the video in order to answer a few key questions: where and when were these images filmed ?

Les Tuches s'habiller un peu catalan

#PYRÉNÉES-ORIENTALES – Who doesn't know the Tuche saga ? The adventures of the family from the North of France continue in 2025, more precisely in February, with the release of the fifth film, this time directed by Jean-Paul Rouve, who also plays the father of the family. In God save the Tuche, Jeff and his family accompany their grandson, Jiji, selected for an internship at the Arsenal football club. Who says football, says jersey. And the one that will be worn on screen, defending the colors of FC Bouzolles (the fictional city of the Tuches), was made by the Perpignan company Maillot Français. The company, created in 2019, makes a point of manufacturing its products in France.

MSA victim of farmers' anger

#PERPIGNAN – A dozen members of Coordination Rurale 66 demonstrated their anger on Tuesday in front of the offices of the Mutualité sociale agricole in Perpignan, according to L’Indépendant. Several bins of manure, slurry, agricultural waste and used tires were dumped in front of the entrance to the building and in the parking lot. An action to denounce “the inaction and zeal” of the MSA, according to the farmers present. Slogans such as “MSA = Mort Sociale Agricole” or “MSA = Mafia Sociale Agricole” were also tagged. “The MSA is sinking us. We can no longer pay our contributions. Some people tell us not to pay and yet we receive all the reminders of contributions. I can't even manage to earn €500 a month, how do you expect to get by ? Luckily my wife works on the side. I expect help from the MSA, not burdens”, whispered a winegrower present. “This is a first warning”, stressed Philippe Maydat, leader of the minority agricultural union in the department.

#AVEYRON – The Roquefort protected designation of origin, the oldest in France, will celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2025. The Roquefort festival will therefore have a special flavor for the village of 300 inhabitants in South Aveyron, which is also waiting for a project for the future. Roquefort demain plans the creation of a 350-space car park and a Roquefort house, with the prospect of a link between the village and the Combalou, the massif from which the fleurines that ventilate the cellars were born.
