These are very special signs that were stolen near the site Ucel (Ardeche), reports France Blue Drôme Ardèche. Dinosaurs were represented in the middle of a triangle bordered in red, a nod to the presence of traces of dinosaurs on this classified site.Unesco. But since the beginning of July, they have simply disappeared. “We think that individuals took them because they are cool, quite fun”, said Joël Boyer vice-president of the Regional Natural Park of Monts d’Ardèche.
An unusual memory for thieves but above all bad news for the Monts d’Ardèche Regional Natural Park. In 2022, the Ucel site hopes to obtain again Unesco labeling, Grail for which he will need his dinosaur panels.
A message to thieves
So the site managers appeal to thieves. “If those who borrowed them from us could return them to us, in the town hall of Ucel, in Jaujac at the headquarters of the Regional Natural Park or even leave an anonymous note, that would be really good. “ No prosecution will be initiated against them, promised Joël Boyer questioned by our colleagues.
If this appeal remains unsuccessful, the Regional Natural Park will have to put its hand in its pocket. Each panel costs 200 €, reminds France Blue. “It’s a little joke that costs a little bit”, regretted the manager.
