The noticeable presence of a pretty monkey\u2019s head with its mouth open \u2013 complete with original teeth \u2013 and a lion cub measuring 28 centimeters long.<\/p>\n
But the center pieces are coming from the Niokolo-Koba National Park in Senegal. The personal collection of Andr\u00e9-Roger Dupuy, the correspondent of the Museum of Natural History in Paris, head curator of the park from 1967 to 1974 and director of Senegal\u2019s national parks between 1973 and 1987 \u2013 20 years of a safari the hunting version rather than a photographic one \u2013 will finish by being dispersed.<\/p>\n
Under the hammer of Master Dupont, three tusks of the last Senegalese elephants which have now disappeared: levied by Andr\u00e9-Roger Dupuy \u201con poached specimens,\u201d these tusks have \u201ca high historic and scientific value because they belong to the last representatives of this population of pachyderms of the great Senegalese park,\u201d explain the auctioneers in full. The profits in Morlaix of the poaching in Senegal will be completely pocketed by the Dupuy family.<\/p>\n
In October 2013, a first dispersion of the Dupuy collection took place in Morlaix. Four massacres of African gazelles, which belonged to species that are \u201cvulnerable or endangered,\u201d as highlighted by the catalogue, were subjected to the sale with 40 massacres and trophies of European mammals, 40 African trophies and 40 hunting guns and rifles.<\/p>\n
The trophies from the Dupuy collection were placed on auction thanks to certificates of legality delivered by the Regional Direction of the Environment, Development and Housing (DREAL) in Brittany. The pillaging of the Senegalese national parks has been until now laundered by the French government.<\/p>\n
