Animalists smash the cars of wild boar hunters. As reported by La Nuova Periferia, it happened in recent days in Castagneto Po (Turin). "We come to understand that, being" animal rights ", may be angry with the hunters, but we are here at the specific request of the municipal administrations, and getting to smash our cars with barriers or with stone hits seems objectively absurd "It is the afternoon of Saturday 30 November when the hunters of Team 6, which wild boar within the ATCTO5 (in the territory included between Casalborgone and San Raffaele), come back "to the base" after having operated in the territory of the Cimenasco di Castagneto hamlet, at the specific request of the municipal administration.
Five heads were killed, ready to be loaded on vehicles regularly parked along a road near Villa Cimena. Here, the bitter surprise: three vehicles, in fact (a Toyota Aygo, a Renault Kangoo and a Suzuky Samurai), had been heavily damaged and bolted. Glasses everywhere, with damages of several hundred euros that are added to lines on the bodywork or on the torn tires at other times. «We are constantly targeted by some animal rights activists who live in the area - explain the hunters - as soon as they see us, unrepeatable insults start. We cannot react, even with a simple party lawsuit we would risk the firearms license and the hunting license, and so we only have to suffer.
Too bad we come to these woods at the request of the mayors, to help them contain wild boars and thus limit damage". «We are holding meetings after meetings - explains the mayor of Castagneto Danilo Borca - to try to solve the wild boar problem. We are not against animals, but as Homogeneous Zone 10 we are moving for continue with the killing: there is a limit to everything, and when wild boars (or other animals) become a problem for public safety, action must be taken. The jokes are not authorized by the Municipality, they are only communicated to us: it seems to me really incredible that those who do this work suffer damage "(Ilcanavese.it).
