In recent days, the National President Christian Maffei he wrote to the political parties and groupings, which announced their participation in the political elections on 25 September. In the letter, President Maffei asked these a formal meeting, presenting the contents that represent the idea of hunting policy of the ARCI Caccia. What our association deems necessary to protect the interests of Italian hunters, so that they are re-proposed to the individual candidates of the various colleges and lists. These are the fundamental passages of the letter that begins with the very essence of the Association: "... ARCI Caccia is a recognized National Hunting Association which, with its last Congress, has decided to adopt a" statute "that projects its activities in third sector bodies, in social promotion, in the commitment to volunteering, civil protection, forest fire prevention and in the fight against poaching.
We have and will continue, components of the ARCI Federation, to carry out "frontier" roles and initiatives on drought and wildlife management, based on a planned hunting sampling that responds primarily to the conservation of biodiversity and the protection of wild species .... " - continues Maffei - "We are convinced defenders of the fundamental principles expressed in laws 157/92, fauna protection law and 394/91 governing protected areas. Wildlife, an unavailable heritage of the state - the common good - puts our country at the forefront, in Europe and beyond…. ”. Science, a barrier to hunting and animalist populism: "... in the interest of a levy that corresponds to common scientific guidelines between different countries, where the" weapon "that interests us is one of the" control "tools of the species or the 'Sporting “tool” in the specific shooting facilities, which deserves the credit for rich Olympic medal table.
More research is needed, free from political conditioning. We hope that theISPRA may it soon be an agency, independent from the conditioning of the parties and rooted in relations with the territory…. ”. Management tools: "... Hunting Areas, Alpine Districts and Park Authorities propose themselves with a single integrated programming, to manage, so as to look together at the common good, nature…. We consider this a "progress" of the hunter. We do not belong to the mixture of different interests that are recomposed with improper lobbies that find attention at the moment in Fidc and in the association between Coldiretti and the arms and ammunition producers of the CNCN ”. Arci Caccia for social and sustainable hunting: “We are bearers of a thought, which has its roots in our civilization, as an alternative to the“ representation ”of“ American lobbying ”.
Maffei continues: "Our priorities are to produce and protect the environment, sustainable agriculture…… a “public health plan”Of the species in contrast to climatic tragedies. Arming the country to defend citizens from the potential disaster of pollution, drought. This requires "common sense", reasonableness. Certainly not investing in armaments. " (source: Arch Hunting).
