" presence of wild boar in some areas of the Lombardia is causing massive damage to crops e to the people. We must expand the hunting possibilities for this species ”. This was stated by the Lombard regional councilor for Agriculture, Food and Green Systems Fabio Rolfi who, today in the council, presented a resolution aimed at asking the competent council commission to modify the regional regulation.
With the amendment to art. 17 is intended to allow the collective boar hunting (including hunt and turn, which require the use of dogs) also on Saturday, in addition to the days of Wednesday and Sunday, currently allowed in Alps area for the wandering hunt for sedentary species. “We want to contribute to a more effective containment of the large number of wild boars that cause large numbers damage to agroforestry production and biodiversity, as well as creating sanitation problems and constituting a danger to road traffic. Hunters - concluded Rolfi - are key players in safeguarding theecosystem".
