Hunting: Umbria, the Le Torri Club criticizes the Region because, with the new pre-adopted 2014/2015 Hunting Calendar, it has "mortified the expectations of hunters".
The Regional Council of Umbria, with candid prosopopoeia, announced that "the pre-opening day will be divided into two half days". This is, in the case, the opening of the hunt in the Region which in fact last year took place on September 1st for the whole day. But the previous year were two days and the previous years whole days of sedentary and migratory species. Unusual timeliness in publication, almost a "gem", the Pre-adopted 2014/15 Hunting Calendar, which for Umbrian hunters and people of omnivorous culture, assumes the appearance of the halo of an animal rights regurgitation. Basically: a wedding to be consumed in half!
We are indignant as never before, because once again this year the Regional Council has clipped the legitimate expectations of those who pay the most exorbitant hunting tax in Europe, mortifying a right codified by custom and science, where on 1 September every year, the migration of turtle doves and quail is practically winding down. The tax is even more disconcerting if we consider that the same species - turtledove and quail - have been hunted in all Central European countries since 15 August. Date that is remembered punctually in the memory of man. In essence, once again, the exponential fruits of the game that has reproduced on our territory and is in an accelerated migration phase, is allowed to migrate to the wintering places, causing in fact an economic damage for the Region, which corresponds to about 30.000 leaders between turtledoves and quail not embodied.
The Regional Council cannot have forgotten the referendum result of '90 and the consequent consensus shown by the citizens of Umbria for hunting and the use of the environment, just as it cannot forget the great biological value of game when the same World Health Organization, raises the alarm of the resistance of bacteria to antibiotics used in abundance in farms. Both in meat farms and in fish farms.
