Brigitte Bardot

Legend film threatens to follow the example of Gerard Depardieu and apply for Russian citizenship, if the French authorities put to sleep a couple of sick elephants in the zoo in Lyon. Bardo is a campaigner for animal rights with years of experience. Here's what she wrote on her website Charitable Foundation:





If these people can do something so cowardly and shameless as to kill two elephants - Baby and Nepal, despite several proposals on how to save them, given my Foundation, has repeatedly benefit society, in this case, I decided ask for Russian citizenship and to escape from the country, which has become no more than a graveyard for animals.



The announcement came just a day later, after Vladimir Putin gave Gerard Depardieu Russian citizenship.
