In Austria a rooster is sentenced on appeal for his crowing
A rooster on a farm in Tyrol, Austria, who disturbs the neighborhood with his crowing, was also convicted on appeal. He will be fired. The sentence also hits the farmer, who often uses the tractor at the end of the day.
His line of defense was not accepted, according to which the neighbor, when buying the land near his farm, should have taken the noise into account.
As the Tiroler Tageszeitung says on the front page, the songbird, at any time of the day or night, causes the three dogs on the farm to bark for up to two hours, a court expert confirmed.
The neighbors have turned to the judges who have established, in second instance, that even those who live in the countryside, after 10 o’clock at night, have the right to peace.
The rooster, therefore, must leave his farm by order of the court.
The bird will have to leave his farm. The sentence also warns the farmer who often uses the tractor at the end of the day: his line of defense was not accepted.
