Lyon (France), 29 Jan 2011

43 activists gathered on Saturday 29 January on Place des Terreaux in Lyons to observe an hour of silence in homage to all the animals killed for the consumption of their flesh.
We held placards denouncing the horrors of slaughterhouses and displaying the number of animals killed in order to satisfy human beings' appetite in order to raise awareness and promote our will to abolish meat.

About 500 leaflets were handed out.

The local media covered the event.
