A few days ago the Lombardy Regional Administrative Court ha the appeal of the LAC against the taking of the lark was rejected. As underlined in an official press release, the motivations of the Region were decisive for this decision, which partially implemented the proposals for Federcaccia Lombardy and Migratory Birdlife Office. In 2015, the TAR itself canceled the decree by which the daily and annual items of the game bag were set at 20 and 80, while ISPRA had proposed lower numbers, i.e. 10 and 50.
This time the FIDC and the Migratory Birdlife Office presented comments and suggestions for the analysis of the samples, proposing the limit of 20 and 80 for both fixed and temporary posting. The Region has considered it appropriate to allow the collection of 80 head per year instead of 50: the daily limit has been imposed at 20 for wandering and fixed hunters.
As pointed out by Federcaccia, it is not about what the association wanted, but nonetheless it is judged a positive step, since there have often been moments of friction and too conflicting opinions. The Lombardy Region was thanked, with the hope of an even greater sharing of proposals and suggestions in the future.
