The Brescia event
On the sidelines of Futura EXPo, the event dedicated to sustainability, biodiversity and nature, in which the Italian Hunting Federation took part together with Fondazione Una, some reflections from the President Massimo Buconi on the role of the hunter in this historical moment in our country.
Buconi's words
Here are Buconi's statements which can be heard in a video published online: “The new lead regulation has become law. Yesterday, going to Brescia for Futura EXPo and seeing so many school children present at this event, crowding the Fondazione UNA stand and the space where we explained some of our research activities, a reflection came to my mind that I want to share. The air is changing a bit and there is a new climate, there is more attention from the Government on hunting issues".
The president's appeal
Buconi then added: “Seeing so many kids participate in these events makes me say "we deserve this new phase", because citizens are reconsidering the relationship between man, environment and animals, where we hunters are seen from a different, interesting perspective. We are perceived as useful for maintaining balance and fighting African swine fever. We must earn this trust that is perhaps coming with virtuous behavior, showing the best of ourselves. I am optimistic, but I ask everyone to help each other first and foremost, help us to be the best part of this country“. Under the social video:
