A more than due reply
Responding to animal conservationists these days is never enough. He knows this well. Giulia Sottoriva, president of CONFAVI (Confederation of Italian Hunting Associations), who has released a new video online to counter the arguments that are all too popular in certain circles.
Armchair animal rights activists
These are his final reflections: “Hey hunters, we're talking to you, regardless of your age or membership. How many of you inherited your passion for hunting from your dad, mom, or grandparents? How many of you have managed to pass this wonderful passion on to your children or grandchildren? How many of you encourage young people to go hunting? Do you know why we're asking you all these questions? Because those four armchair animal rights activists would have us believe that hunting is a bad thing and that those who practice this activity should be ashamed.".
A passion that starts as a child
Then the position, clear as never before: "Don't listen to this bullshit. Hunters are first-class citizens with a perfectly clean criminal record. Hunters are constantly immersed in nature and have a perfect knowledge of wildlife management and habitat protection techniques. Hunting has a great social value because it brings together different generations, all united by the same great passion. Hunting evokes the same intense emotions in an 8-year-old as in an 80-year-old. I'll share my personal experience: I developed this passion as a child, accompanying my dad when he went hunting. Do the same, have your children and grandchildren accompany you. Be proud to be hunters because we have the privilege of being able to practice the most beautiful and healthy passion in the world.".
