The Motocrotte, officially called Caninette and informally chiraclette was a small motorized vehicle designed to vacuum up dog faeces in Paris and other French cities. Introduced in 1982 by Jacques Chirac (then Mayor of Paris), the idea was to provide a rapid mobile strike force, which could travel great distances with access to sidewalks in a minimum of time, to perform a very specific action. The fleet of 100 vehicles was based initially on and later the XT 600, with a large tank to the rear which housed both water and waste, attached to a vacuum-powered hose which was placed over the material required to be removed.

Les motocrottes ont été mises en place pour la première fois par la mairie de Paris, en 1982 Jacques Chirac étant maire. Ces motos étaient des Yamaha XT 250, fortement modifiées, avec un récipient d'eau propre, un récipient destiné à récolter les déjections et un aspirateur situé à côté de la roue avant. (fr)

| - La motocrotte, aussi appelée caninette ou chiraclette, est un petit engin motorisé destiné à nettoyer les déjections canines dans les villes. Elle est pilotée par un motocrotteur. Les motocrottes ont été mises en place pour la première fois par la mairie de Paris, en 1982 Jacques Chirac étant maire. Ces motos étaient des Yamaha XT 250, fortement modifiées, avec un récipient d'eau propre, un récipient destiné à récolter les déjections et un aspirateur situé à côté de la roue avant. L'idée de ces engins était de constituer une force de frappe rapide, permettant de parcourir de grandes distances de trottoirs en un minimum de temps pour y effectuer une action bien spécifique. Après plusieurs années de fonctionnement, le projet a été abandonné en 2004 par l'équipe de Bertrand Delanoë. Les motocrottes ne ramassaient que 20 % des déjections canines, pour un coût annuel de 4,5 millions d'euros. Le dispositif a été remplacé par la responsabilisation des propriétaires de chien. Le ramassage des déjections par le propriétaire est désormais obligatoire sous peine d'amende. (fr)

The project was abandoned in 2002, for a new and better enforced local law which now fines dog owners up to 500 euros for not removing their dog faeces. It was estimated at the time of their removal, that the fleet of 70 Motocrottes were cleaning up only 20% of dog faeces on Parisian streets, for an annual cost of £3million. Use continued in other French cities including Montpellier as of 2016. (en)
