After those of Free Hunt, also the utterances of Arch Hunting on 2018-2019 Lazio hunting calendar. As written by the regional president Joseph Pilli, from the reading of the decree of President Zingaretti it seems to understand that this year the Lazio hunters will not be able to have the so-called pre-opening, that is also the already very limited option granted by the general legislation in advance of the hunting exercise, in particular aimed at the turtledove.
Unlike what was hoped for and suggested in the preliminary consultation with the hunting world to comply with the neighboring regions on the matter for periods and species, Lazio seems to be going in a completely different direction, going back from a practice that has been consolidated for years and for which there are no new reasons for rethinking, neither technical nor environmental widely chased in the election campaign, the specific attachment has in fact disappeared. For now, the facts are left to speak and they seem quite clear in limiting hunting activity for no reason.
Or should we think that a simple opinion of the new Minister of the Environment makes law? Tuscany and Umbria, just to mention the closest regions and with which it would be not only useful but necessary to agree on the regulations, have already quietly approved the pre-opening and guaranteed in time the hunters concerned certainty on how to face the imminent hunting season. Perhaps the precarious balance of advice does not allow Zingaretti to do what he has always done, indeed of improve it as had been hoped, standardizing the dates and also extending the pre-opening to the similar species of wood pigeon, always in harmony with the neighboring regions?
Or we must think that the planning and management effort that the Regional Department is facing in which Agriculture and the Environment are unified is limited to re-propose a Council Resolution that regulates the ATC structure by obliging by 2018 to compress the members in the Management Committees by necessarily reducing them to 10, effectively preventing the representation of the Hunting Associations and democratic participation? It would therefore be the case that those in charge clarify the situation and do not pretend that the issue does not exist. Or do we not even deserve respect?
