“Lombardy Region is good, but we need to have more courage in fighting pigeons. Already in November 2019 I had submitted a question on this very problem, suggesting to implement the pigeon control with the aid of the levy notwithstanding in hunting activities in the following season. Well the commissioner Fabio Rolfi who also this year authorizes the control through shooting down of the city pigeon, from 19 September 2021 to 31 January 2022 throughout the region, but I ask him for more courage in dealing with all invasives.
It is a step forward, but it is not enough. It is too small, in fact, the maximum number of 20.000 animals that can be taken and 800 authorized hunters to control the species. And it would be desirable to make a five-year plan, as the Emilia Romagna Region did, in order to streamline the procedures and make the provision more effective. We are on the right track, but we need to affect more ”.
He declares it Barbara Mazzali, regional councilor of the Brothers of Italy.
