Jacques Ferron was a Frenchman who was tried and hanged in 1750 for copulation with a jenny (female donkey).[1][2]

The trial took place in the commune of Vanvres and Ferron was found guilty and sentenced to death by hanging.[3] In cases such as these it was usual that the animal would also be sentenced to death,[4] but in this case the she-ass was acquitted. The court decided that the animal was a victim and had not participated of her own free will. A document, dated 19 September 1750, was submitted to the court on behalf of the she-ass that attested to the virtuous nature of the animal. Signed by the parish priest and other principal residents of the commune it proclaimed that "they were willing to bear witness that she is in word and deed and in all her habits of life a most honest creature."[1]
