The President of the Italian Wood Pigeon Club, Francesco Paci, released this statement a few days ago: “Professor Cavina obtained the availability of Professor Hobson for research on radioisotopes in the next month of October (1000 pens or more). He also had a first meeting with the Lega senator Francesco Bruzzone, deputy chairman of the Senate Environment Commission (wood pigeon hunter) from which he might come some opportunity.
Let's all take action now to find the funds for this research (15 thousand euros) which will allow us to define the origin of the populations affecting our country in October and November and those who winter here. It will be useful not only to acquire high and particular credibility, but also for hunting calendars, with a not impossible increase in huntable leaders, given the abundance of this wild found in recent years. Interlocutors, regarding the support for research, could be the producers of ammunition and weapons for the wood pigeon, the departments, the ATCs and the parks ”.
The following note written by Enrico Cavina, is placed side by side with all items of information published already 4 years ago on Colombaccio Scientifico and more recent. All Wood Pigeon Hunters are invited to give the maximum diffusion in any way, given the importance that this Research can have in giving a definitive answer to the Problem of Origins of the wood pigeons that come to us.
