Here is the June 26, 1987 arrêté with the list of the 87
animals that you can hunt in France (23 mammals and 64
birds) :

I like the bird list:
"Oiseaux de passage

Alouette des champs, bécasse des bois, caille des blés, grive
draine, grive litorne, grive mauvis, grive musicienne, merle
noir, pigeon biset, pigeon colombin, pigeon ramier,
tourterelle des bois, tourterelle turque et vanneau huppé."

Starting with the lark, it confirms my deep-seated
Anglo-Saxon prejudice against French "sportsmen"!

You could try looking in your own country.

How trite can you get?
