The tirade: "In Sardinia, animals are traded in like cars; they don't know respect for life."

His fame in Sardinia is linked to his tirade against the use (in the sense that he had walked in the street) of a camel at the Ovodda Carnival and against the sheepskins that had been used to decorate the floats. It was later discovered that the humped animal lives well in the Nuoro area and even has "friends" of its own breed.

Now animal rights activist Enrico Rizzi is back on the attack against "a Sardinian group."

What would be the participants' fault? They negotiate animal sales and trades and use social media to increase their chances of closing a deal.

Normal? Not for Rizzi, who exposes to public ridicule (at least among his followers) the names and surnames of those whose "misdeeds" actually lead him to "pray," though he doesn't exactly clarify what for.

"Now animals are traded in, like cars, as merchandise or simple objects to be used as one pleases," the animal rights activist accuses. "They don't know what respect for 'life' means. I'll leave any comments to you, without offending anyone. I'll keep quiet and pray in my own way," he warns his followers.
