– This is definitely a breakthrough and a historic moment that society has been waiting for a very long time. We are extremely pleased that the President listened to the voice of Polish women and men and signed this act – comments Marta Korzeniak from the Open Cages Association in a statement sent.

Open Cages quotes a village resident:

Romana Bomba, a resident of Cieszyn-Dobrzec in Wielkopolska, who fought for many years against a mink farm built in the center of the village, does not hide her joy: – In our village, the farm bordered the school, kindergarten, and church. One person made money by skinning animals for fur, and we, the residents, the environment, and most importantly, the animals suffered. We have finally managed to put an end to this. We are sending fur to history!
