As soon as the hunting season has begun, the first seizures of live calls occur as they are detained without regular authorization.
In the province of Florence, the State Forestry Guard carried out the seizure of more than nine hundred birds because they were detained as live calls without regular authorization.
The animals in question had previously been entrusted to about two hundred hunters in custody, at the explicit request of the same, by the province of Florence on the basis of regional laws.
Considering that the same laws by which the region had authorized the taking of birds in the wild to use them as hunting decoys were declared unconstitutional, the seizure of the animals thus illegally detained was ordered. The seized birds will be entrusted to a special WWF center located in the Maremma.
