A hunt with hounds was underway at the time in the forest where she was walking her own dog. Elisa, who was six months pregnant, worked as a riding instructor and was described as an animal lover who owned five dogs together with her partner. Elle a été tuée par des chiens. Pilarski's partner Christophe told BFM TV channel that when he arrived on the scene around 45 minutes later he came across hunting hounds first of all and a rider. The Paris-based French hunting association said in a statement that "nothing shows the involvement of hunting hounds in the death of this woman".
