We are at usual Italian paradox or if you want Toscano but it's time to say forcefully that the jar is full: on the one hand we read and listen to daily appeals from farmers, agricultural associations and citizens to reduce and calming the wild boar population in the Tuscany Region which invades and destroys not only the countryside and crops but also urban centers with the danger of road accidents and on the other hand the TAR of Tuscany which, on appeal by WWF LAV and LAC, suspends as a precaution until September 17 next there form of the hunt as a method of controlling wild boar populations.
In practice, the TAR, at the request of WWF et al, suspends the form of wild boar sampling and control which in the Tuscany Region reaches and is responsible for 80% of the wild boars killed, that is, removed from the environment and the countryside! Unfortunately, we read in the sentence that according to the Administrative Judges of the TAR the Regional provision "it does not seem to sufficiently demonstrate the ineffectiveness of ecological methods in the control of wild boars, nor adequately justify the deviation from the negative opinion of ISPRA with particular reference to the risk of redistribution of the wild boars themselves on the territory "
We consider this type of pronouncement unacceptable and we invite the agricultural trade associations to make your voice heard loud against the Department to approve a new provision that overcomes ISPRA objections, at the same time overcoming the suspension of the TAR and allowing a quick resumption of the containment operations of the wild boar species also through the shape of the hunt that for some extensive crops such as corn often represents the only possible form of containment.
