Hunting and Fauna: Uboldo (VA), Wild Rabbits emergency at the nursery; it is necessary to avoid the risk of infections.
Looking for rabbits in the garden of the Kite kindergarten in Uboldo, where a sort of joke was held hunting to find those running around the lawn while the children play. It all started with the reports of the school staff, worried by the presence of bunnies wandering in the surrounding park, some of which could come into contact with the little ones during outdoor activities. What are the actual fears? The feces or their fur could be carriers of diseases such as ticks, but there are other diseases that cause fever, diarrhea or encephalitis. The provincial hunting guards and the Hunters Group intervened on the spot, placing nets in correspondence with the exits of the dens and, inserting a ferret, they waited for the wild rabbits to come out to escape. Well, not even one came out.
"In reality we saw two that fled as soon as we entered the garden, but nothing more - reports the coordinator of the Civil Protection Piero Zucca - There are some bunnies, but not so many as to constitute a danger for children . After all, our sports center is also full of rabbits, which are often seen running among the vegetation: this is an area where they proliferate and the greenery and woods are a good habitat for them ".
