African swine fever

The council's experts responded to this question by emphasizing that "fortunately, the situation is under control now, and there hasn't yet been a confirmed case of African swine fever in Lizzano in Belvedere." Daniele Valbonesi (Democratic Party) expressed support for the council's work, while Fausto Gianella (FdI) called for action to be taken to prevent incidents involving wild animals and to pay attention to the Po Delta area, particularly due to the presence of non-native animals such as deer, which are causing damage to the flora (source: Emilia Romagna Region).
