Bureaucracy, restrictions with the alternation of the various areas (yellow, orange and red) and a difficult global context have resulted in a dowry in twelve months, or in the comparison between the 2019 and 2020 seasons, in the 16 thousand huntable hectares of the Alpine District of the Comasche Prealps, 117 fewer culls under the heading "deer". An important fact that goes hand in hand with another extremely important fact, written down in black and white by the president of the Alpine hunting district of Prealps Comasche, Livio De Angeli: «To date 159 animals have been culled in the face of a culling plan which provided for 376. Therefore 217 would be missing.
With reasonable knowledge of the facts, I can say that at least others 150 deer would have been shot down. ' For De Angeli "it is a problem for hunters who have paid the amount due (about 650 euros the total of the license, ed), dealing with a hunt "in fits and starts", which began 50 days later than in 2019, in the face of the negative opinion of Ispra, an opinion on which the Lombardy Region did not utter a word contrary to what happened in 2019. But that's not all, because the problem extends to the territories. From our point of view, the phenomenon is growing and is directly related to the fewer culls.
Not to mention the damage to crops and individuals. It is a serious problem on which, in light of the new dynamics imposed by the pandemic, strong political choices are needed. For this reason, also through the experience gained in recent years, we ask the Lombardy Region to open the deer hunt this year August 25th and not in October as happened this year as well as the possibility of hunting deer in January. I believe that there are many valid arguments in favor of our proposals, that they range from the safety on the roads of the territory to the damages caused to those of agriculture lives or to those who see the gardens taken by storm "concluded De Angeli (The Province of Como).
