Supported by the majority of TPMP columnists, Pierre Cadéac, the most famous trainer in French cinema, came to respond last night to the serious accusations of abuse launched by journalist Hugo Clément. On set, as you can see in the video above, he explained that these gestures, like punching, denounced by the journalist was a form of education because these animals were particularly difficult. According to him, the violence denounced was the only way to put these animals back on the right track and to allow them a life in society with other animals.
In his new media Vakita, journalist Hugo Clément and his team evoke punches and institutionalized violence. On a video, we would even see him giving a violent punch to a raptor who does not obey him.
A female monkey was even said to have been disfigured with fists and even a cub until it passed out from the pain. In his 7-hectare estate, in Seine-et-Marne, he trains nearly 250 animals specifically for the filming of films, music videos and commercials.
Fifteen people, who worked directly for the trainer, accuse him of serious mistreatment of his animals.
In a complaint, filed on November 23 by the Paris Animals Zoopolis association, they denounce a training system based on violence. A method of “starving, threatening to hit, and hitting”.
Chickens that would have been used for the filming of an advertisement for “Le Gaulois” would have been thrown alive into the wolf enclosure on the order of the trainer.
Abuse that would have led, in some cases, to the death of animals.
