The regional councilor of Lombardy Barbara Mazzali (Brothers of Italy) commented on an all too particular situation regarding the Bergamella Park, a green area that rises in that of Sesto San Giovanni (province of Milan): "The signs posted by the Municipality were not enough to prevent citizens from carrying nutria food living around the park's pond. Animal rights activists continue to bring not only food for the rodents, but also small huts to house them!
These people are unaware that otters destroy entire ecosystems like that of Bergamella. With their actions, animal rights activists are the first to harm the environment, agriculture and biodiversity. And then the bad guys are us hunters that instead we dedicate ourselves body and soul to the protection of nature ".
