A shocking image that motorists found in front of the entrance to Ales.

A fox hanged from a road sign. The municipal administration received the report and the deputy mayor Fabrizio Collu and a non-commissioned officer of the Forestry Corps of the village station arrived on the spot.

«According to the forestry expert, the animal did not die of asphyxiation but would have been run over by a vehicle - says Collu - He was a young fox and his head was crushed following the investment. Someone then wanted to take it off the street and hang it on the sign, perhaps for a stunt. However, it was not a cruel act towards the animal», clarifies the deputy mayor.

Forestry investigators reserved the right to investigate the matter.
