The section of Livorno ofArch Hunting commented negatively what is happening on thePianosa Island, which is part of the Tuscan Archipelago. Some "expert hunters" will arrive in a few days, trained by the park authority and qualified to kill pheasants and partridges for their eradication. The operation does not convince the hunting association. First of all, a comparison would have been appropriate to verify other solutions.
Arci Caccia Livorno recalled the effort of the hunters of enter catch animals, increasingly difficult to find. Therefore, the best alternative should always be that of capture and repopulation. The association then criticized the silence of the more fundamentalist environmentalists, when, on the other hand, there is a scandal in the case of the killing of ungulates to defend agricultural production.
Furthermore, for Arci Caccia there should be no paid courses for selective killing, as costs are often not accessible to everyone. The members were therefore asked not to participate in the killing, in the belief that territorial management depends from comparison, collaboration and in-depth analysis. The press release will certainly cause discussion and replies to these statements are expected in the next few hours, in particular from the park authority that has been called into question.
