Hunting in Lombardy: Fabio Rolfi: “A dutiful choice, defending the certainty of hunting”.
"We are satisfied - explains Fabio Rolfi, deputy leader of the Northern League in the Lombardy Region - for the failure of the attempt of the" new Greens ", that is the Five Star Movement, to hinder hunting by canceling the law governing the hunting calendar, in order to oblige the council to approve the calendar each year by resolution, more easily challenged by animal rights associations. " “It was a well-studied technicality, yet another attempt to prevent the right to practice a practice strongly rooted in popular tradition. Whether we like it or not, in fact, hunting is an integral part of the territory and, if done in compliance with the rules and with the right measure, it is also an important tool for defending the balance of fauna and the environment. "
"The Regional Council - concludes Rolfi - has rejected this clumsy trick of the Five Stars with a large majority, confirming the desire to continue to guarantee the Lombard hunting world clear, precise and certain rules to guarantee traditional hunting activities, a source of more not indifferent economic induced.
