The drafting of the plan for the numerical containment of wolves is over, the reassurances of Ministry of the Environment they were there and tomorrow, Thursday 2 February 2017, the State-Regions Conference should start the killing. Minister Gian Luca Galletti spoke of a controlled withdrawal, but several regions are backtracking. For example, Lazio and Puglia have dissociated themselves from what they call "Wolf hunt".
Furthermore, other doubts were expressed by the governor of Friuli Venezia Giulia, Debora Serracchiani, and by the regional councilor for agriculture of Veneto, Giuseppe Pan. Luciano D'Alfonso, president of Abruzzo, said instead perplexed about the culls, unlike Sergio Chiamparino, governor of Piedmont, he would like a more in-depth study. Meanwhile, Galletti himself continues to maintain his position and reiterated how wolf conservation should not be limited by media hype and populism. The minister is ready to listen to the regions, hoping that those who have not read the text or are in bad faith do not dictate the agenda.
