The news of the approval of the hunting calendar 2019/2020 by the The Tuscan Regional Authority and after the constant work of study and suggestions to the Hunting Offices and to the Councilorship chaired by Marco Remaschi we record the excellent news of the maintenance of the species Pochard and Lapwing and also of the Fighter, which was by no means taken for granted. But if the merit of having "saved a new penalty against" can be ascribed to the battle fought by the Free Hunt, by the Department itself and also by the rest of the Tuscan Venatory Association, the bitter taste of the refusal to extend the pigeon hunting period remains in the mouth until the February 10.
One thing in the full potential of the Region, practiced for some years in neighboring regions to the full satisfaction of the residents, in front of which those same hunting associations united in firm and decisive position for pochard, lapwing and fighter, they went sideways raising an insuperable barricade for the Free Tuscan Hunt, left alone at this juncture. The Confederation of Tuscan Associations not recognized, in serious trouble when faced with the questions of its own associates, it issues communications with useless attempts at a defense and a justification that has no basis whatsoever.
Practically, for the maintenance of wood pigeon hunting in the Apennine area all the rest of the regional hunters are sacrificed who awaited with great hope those days of February during which, not only a few specialists of the tense to the field on the first contingents of the species in September but ALL of them would have had full satisfaction, given the great abundance of wood pigeons throughout the rest of the Tuscan territory. The extension of hunting in February would not only have been a strong signal for the whole nation, given that Tuscany has always been the leading hunting region and our calendar is carefully followed by the other regions in the drawing up your own calendars but it would have been equally positive as a response to operators in the sector, of all that economic sector that lives but also produces wealth as a result of hunting, considering the "stick" taken last January when, due to the sentence of the Council of State, practically everything is finished after the first ten days of January.
Obviously, those who earn their living from work in the "hunting" sector first of all the armories but also clothing, car dealerships, workshops, fuel stations up to restaurants and hotels do not count for anything either for the unrecognized Confederation or for the Region, which could have easily gone right by taking us to the 10 February. Perhaps it was feared that the credit was an exclusive of FREE HUNT? We leave the rest of the discussion to later notes: today, in addition to the satisfaction of having defended three important species for those who are specialist in marsh hunting, we wanted to say two little words about the wood pigeon, highlighting the fact that, if it is true that by other teams you look atUNITY of the hunting world as the panacea for all evils, the story of the denial of the wood pigeon in February is the full demonstration that, as long as the numbers that arise from the membership are these, the proposal of the wood pigeon in February, probably would never have seen the light. The Free Hunting Tuscany, strongly convinced of its proposals and ideas, with her fighting spirit that distinguishes her, she continues alone, in her splendid and proud isolation, the battle for the defense of ALL Tuscan hunters.
