In Lunigiana, in the province of Massa Carrara, there is a wild boar emergency and the Territorial Hunting Area 13 declares itself in favor of increasing wild boar hunting days in areas not suitable for hunting teams.
The Sampling Plan was found to be insufficient and the Committee had already indicated as a solution to the problem the extension of the hunting period in highly critical areas with the intervention of hunting teams.
To respond to the emergency ungulates supported by farmers in unsuitable areas, the Management Committee of the Territorial Hunting Area 13 of the Province of Massa Carrara has expressed a positive opinion on the opportunity to increase the days in which the teams can go hunting.
The hypothesis, being examined by the Province of Massa Carrara, provides the addition of one or more days to the already scheduled Wednesday and Sunday appointments. An opportunity that the ATC had already envisaged in the past to cope with the large population of boars which by now have gone as far as urban areas causing, also in 2010, about 45 thousand euros in damage to crops accompanied by the fury of farmers.
The Chairman of the Management Committee, Valerio Poi, explained "It is a prospect that we had already indicated on several occasions in the previous months and that we are definitely in favor of. The extension of collection days in highly critical areas, the so-called unsuitable areas, online casino it is certainly an effective tool for eradicating the species from areas where it shouldn't be ”.
Despite the number of withdrawals that almost reached 3700 animals culled in 2010 in the authorized districts, 444 more than the year before, the wild boar population seems out of control.
Then he continues reiterating, "The calendar provides for the possibility of a derogation as of January 31, 2012 if the abatement plans are not completed to cope precisely with this emergency of supernumerary wild boars. We are in favor of allowing hunting on one or more days other than those scheduled. Now it is up to the Province to modify the regulation ”.
The ATC takes this opportunity to remind all hunters of the wild boar of iWear high visibility clothing and take all necessary safety measures, respect the areas dedicated and not and that it is forbidden to kill species of wild fauna other than wild boar, except for the Fox within the time allowed by current legislation.
The Committee also informs that any infringements by one of the teams enrolled in the Atc 13, they may also lead to the suspension of hunting for up to a maximum of 3 months.
One last fundamental precaution: the animals killed by the teams must be marked with the affixing of one of the metal bands to be used for the suitable territory.
