Wednesday 2 October finally opens the hunting in Abruzzo. Unfortunately late and among a thousand uncertainties; but should Abruzzo hunters expect such an ordeal every year? We asked for clarification from Massimo Sordini Provincial President of Arch Hunting Teramo: the new Councilor for hunting, imprudent in name and in fact, who took over after the last elections, unfortunately, listened to bad advisors who convinced him to make choices that led us to arrive in October without having trained the dogs and without having hunted one day.
The Hunting Wildlife Plan, left ready by the previous Councilor, has remained a dead letter and the Hunting Calendar was approved late, not only with this starting handicap, but ignoring practically all the indications of the ISPRA and without submitting the procedure to WIN. In this way, the Calendar was easily prey to the appeal presented by the animal rights activists. Pending the ruling of the TAR, the Councilor has produced a new surreal calendar, with two versions, one written in black, which it accepts the ISPRA indications and one in red, valid in case of victory in court. Well such a thing has never been seen before and if the appeal arrived on time on the first version, let's imagine what will happen with the second.
We, for Abruzzo hunters, ask for seriousness: a Calendar approved within the time limits set by law, supported by scientific data, by the Wildlife Hunting Plan and equipped with all the necessary authorizations. Finally, a calendar that gives us the certainty of going hunting without being continually blocked, losing precious days. I conclude by making a big good luck to all hunters, accompanying it with a request: be more correct and far-sighted than those who administer you.
