Opening Hunting 2011-2012: From Federcaccia a "IN THE MOUTH THE WOLF!" to All Hunters ..
Once again we are on the eve of the general opening of the hunting season. An important moment for all of us hunters, anxious to live the most awaited day with passion and emotion.
Whatever your favorite hunt, I want to send everyone a sincere and warm "Good luck", to which the entire Italian Federation of Hunting is associated, for this day and for the rest of the hunting season. .
That serenity that too often the events linked to hunting make us lose. There is still a long way to go, so that even for hunting our country can be defined as a modern country. There are too many falsehoods and attacks, ignoble and unacceptable, which it is easy to imagine will not fail even on this occasion.
This is not the time for controversy, but we still want to reaffirm that ethics, honesty and respect for the rules are the principles that inspire - and that must inspire more and more - the action of the vast majority of hunters, who live hunting correctly.
Many are those who work to keep the fauna in good health and who dedicate their time to environmental management.
This is us hunters, this is what the AstraRicerche survey data tells us. Being committed to the territory with a correct, polite behavior, in line with the rules of civil life and with the rules of hunting, with a sense of proportion and with respect for the fauna and the environment, has always belonged to every hunter. Finally, allow me a nod to safety.
We must pay the utmost attention to avoid accidents and protect our own safety and that of others. It is our duty, both civil and moral. Let us therefore commit ourselves to be responsible as always, to make our business safer, adding our experience and our conscience to the rules.
If we do all this even more and better, we will be able to show the public an even higher profile of European hunting citizens.
A strong "Good luck!" to everyone.
Gian Luca Dall'Olio
National President of the Italian Hunting Federation
