To the usual problems for the public safety of users of woods and countryside (failure to respect the safety distances from homes and carriage roads is the most frequent violation), are added those of declining wild species (such as rock partridge, ptarmigan, gadwall, dove, woodcock, pochard, lapwing, lark, to name a few), threatened by direct persecution of hunting. The emergency of the low turnover of the public hunting surveillance personnel of the provincial police, in charge of controls, is very serious (decimated by the 2015 budget law and by the measures subsequent to the Madia law). The National Plan to combat offenses against wild birds, approved by the State-Regions Conference in March 2017, is still largely not implemented by the Regions and the Minister of the Environment.
To the drama of the territorial "pockets" where poaching is still consistent (eg: Po Delta, portions of Sardinia, Capitanata, Sicilian minor islands, Amalfi coast, Campania islands, the entire province of Brescia, etc.), the continuous illegitimate regional legislation is added, because it is in contrast with state provisions and community, with a dozen regional laws (for example for Liguria, Tuscany and Lombardy). challenged at the Constitutional Court in the last year by the Council of Ministers. Not even bear and wolf are formally safe from the ignorant fury of demagogic local administrators, as in the case of Trentino and Alto Adige, always committed - even recently - to promote exceptions for the elimination of some specimens of large wild carnivores ".
