As disclosed by the Italian Federation of Hunting, there have been three cases of poaching in recent weeks still against theIbis Eremita e all three in Tuscany. Although the competent authorities, who are investigating, had recommended not to disseminate the information in order not to damage the investigations, they were leaked and were resumed and disseminated. The condemnation of this barbarism is firm, taken for granted, but not a facade or a convenience, which finds no justification in any way, almost a persistence studied at the table against a species of no interest in food, collecting or which in any way causes damage to human activities, including hunting.
"The Italian Federation of Hunting must unfortunately once again complain about the reckless poaching gestures that led toascertained killing of other three precious specimens of Hermit Ibis, which with great difficulty for years has been trying to reintroduce into nature - declares the national president of Federcaccia Gian Luca Dall'Olio - Strongly, as on other similar occasions our condemnation and that of honest hunters are raised, respectful of the laws and nature lovers, for such a blatant manifestation of stupidity.
Any act of poaching, towards any species, is always a crime to be prosecuted and I hope that the culprits will come identified and condemned. As always, we will put our forces at the disposal of the investigators so that this can be achieved ”.
