Coldiretti Friuli Venezia Giulia has long denounced the unsustainable situation of 20 thousand wild boars to circulate on the regional territory in the countryside and in urban areas, to damage crops and put the safety of citizens at risk. “The presence of some specimens this morning in A4, with a lot of closure of the carriageways, unfortunately, it does not surprise us - observes the confederal delegate in Fvg Giovanni Benedetti -. It was only by chance that there were no accidents and no victims ”. On the other hand, there had been accidents in recent months. One still on the A4, in the Portogruaro area, another in the Nimis area, with two women seriously injured.
Today's news, continues Benedetti, “only confirms Coldiretti's long-standing alarms. This umpteenth episode must necessarily lead the institutions to take matters into their own hands and to do not limit yourself to the usual ritual statements. We understand that this is a particular moment and that the pandemic brings together efforts on other fronts, but that of wild boars is a critical issue that must be addressed as a matter of priority. It is no longer just a question of compensation, but it has become a fact of people's safety".
“Time is up: Region and State, as far as they are responsible, must immediately face the problem of the proliferation of wild boars, which cause dangers along the roads as happened this morning along the A4 motorway, and damage to agriculture. A good starting point is to immediately resume the national bill which, presented by the undersigned and approved by the regional council with a large majority, lies abandoned in the Roman drawers: I appeal to the regional parliamentarians to take charge of it ”.
