Rieti launched the new legislation of the Lazio Region, introduced with the approval of the connected to the stability law by the regional council last August, which opens to the wild boar hunting even in protected areas. Yes, because in the middle of last summer the Pisana provided for a rule that allows the Region, in the event of inaction by the entities that manage the protected areas, to activate selective killing. According to the provisions of the law, the intervention of the Region can be requested directly from entrepreneurs and agricultural tenants that are located within the reserves.
A legislation that had divided: contrary Rome Nature, more favorable to focus on cages and fences; in favor of Coldiretti who saw in the measure an important deterrent to damage caused by wild boars to farmers' fields and crops. And that's why the president of Coldiretti Lazio, David Granieri, appeals for the example of Rieti to be followed by Rome as well, where wild boars continue to roam undisturbed everywhere: from busy streets to school entrances and then again between bar tables and in front of shop windows. A constant and bulky presence.
“We hope that this intervention - said Granieri - can be an example for the whole regional territory. And I am referring above all to Rome, where the protected areas are totally abandoned, just look at those managed by RomaNatura and its president Maurizio Gubbiotti. Here immobility prevails and citizens do not feel safe inside, where it continues to proliferate unchecked the presence of wild boars. It is an important result and we are satisfied that the Region has taken our requests into account. This is a battle we have waged in defense of our farmers, which continue to suffer considerable damage to their crops damaged by the continuous presence of wild boars ".
