Monitoring of Wild Rabbit: Federcaccia Catania is there! The Provincial Section of Catania of the Italian Federation of Hunting will actively participate in the census of the Wild Rabbit in the territorial context of theMetropolitan area of Catania (the ATC of Catania 1 to be precise), as required by the Wildlife Hunting Division, through the use of Men and Vehicles related to the Municipal sections of Biancavilla, Caltagirone, Misterbianco e Ramacca (Source Federcaccia Catania). This monitoring of the species is very important in Sicily, not only in Catania.
Normally the so-called “pellet count” technique is applied, ie a thorough investigation of points distributed to ascertain the presence of rabbits; in addition, we also rely on the census with counting carried out at night, using special beacons.
