The vademecum
The regional Hunting Association of Tuscany wanted to remind with a vademecum some small changes that will concern the hunting in this area during the month of January which has just begun.
The main points
Here are the details:
Huntable species: song thrush, teal, pochard, snipe, gadwall, pintail, wood pigeon, hooded crow, wigeon, coot, eurasian whip, moorhen, magpie, mallard, jay, garganey, northern shoveler, water rail, fox, cottontail, woodcock, fieldfare, redwing, tufted duck, lapwing, and wild boar. Deer and bovids are regulated by biological calendar.
Hunting hours: From January 1st to January 15th: from 7,00 am to 17,15 pm; from January 16th to January 31st: from 06,45 am to 17,30 pm.
In the SPAs, hunting is permitted only on Thursdays and Sundays during the month of January, with the exception of hunting ungulates.
From January 1 to 31, 2026, the use of hunting dogs, pointing dogs, and stalking in woodcock hunting areas is permitted only in designated wild boar hunting areas and, in other areas, only within wooded areas as classified by Regional Law No. 39/2000. Any severe cold spells or severe weather conditions that are critical for this species will result in the suspension of hunting for this species, subject to the Tuscany Region's prior notification on its institutional website and the websites of regional hunting authorities (ATCs), as well as via a message sent to users of the digital hunting license.

The use of a hound is permitted for wild boar hunting by stalking and stalking, and for fox hunting conducted by hunters in teams, using a hound. Fox hunting team members must be included in a daily list available to the supervisory authorities. These lists, for activities carried out within their jurisdiction, are submitted to the ATCs according to the procedures they establish.
