The news of a young hiker wounded by a boar in Upper Garda last Sunday he occupied the front pages of our newspapers and raised the usual sterile controversies. First of all like Federcaccia Brescia we sincerely wish this girl a speedy recovery and above all we ask you not to give up the habit of visiting our beautiful mountains.
We would like to make a second consideration by expressing our satisfaction with the correct organization of the hunting expedition which has been exhibited as per regulation even the signs that warned of the joke in progress. Finally, to those who accuse the hunters of this accident, since according to them the wild boar that hit the hiker was frightened by the dogs, we want to remind you that wild boars cause accidents, both on and off the road, as well as many other wildlife also in protected areas and also in those managed by animal welfare associations.
Taking any news story as a pretext to denigrate the hunting world only serves to make the theses of these people less credible. Wildlife moves and moves with somewhat different logics from those of human beings. It is clear that contact can occur if you go to areas with a high presence of wild animals without always having to bring up the hunters.
