“It sounds strange that the promoters of the project 'Natural resources of Abruzzo' they are the same ones who have a past in the ranks of the Greens, in support of environmental associations ”. To say it is Dino Rossi, hunter and breeder, at the head of the team Mount Cappucciata of Carpineto della Nora (Pescara). The reference is to the supply chain project created with the aim of contributing to reduction of wild boars, but also to create a controlled and certified chain to market quality and traceable meat for the consumer.
“From this project - ironically Rossi - it seems that even the Greens have realized the importance of hunters in safeguarding agriculture. Instead, the Region has not noticed who is about to approve the new wildlife plan in the Council which severely damages agriculture and penalizes us hunters ”. Rossi is the first promoter, for the next 7 March, at the Grand Hotel Adriatico in Montesilvano (Pescara), of a mega encounter with about 1.000 hunters from all over the region. During the day this "absurd regional wildlife plan will be illustrated in detail, cost 130 thousand euros. Funds for a program that not only creates discontent among hunters, who are the primary actors in the control of wildlife, but above all increases the destruction of agricultural fields and animal husbandry.
The plan was drawn up by Ispra, a public body that is a real political bandwagon, which is also the same one that introduces restrictions on hunting areas ”. According to Rossi, the areas intended for hunting have been significantly reduced in the new plan. "The plan which is about to be approved by the regional council divides the region into two large areas, coloring the areas where the wild boar must be eradicated yellow, without taking into account that within these there are oases, reserves and restocking areas where hunting is prohibited. At the time it was also thought to fight the wild boars inside the protected areas using wolves. The result is that the wild boars today are more aggressive and destroy the fields and the wolves instead destroy the companies ”. “The meeting on March 7, which will also be attended by many farmers - concludes Rossi - really wants to be a moment of confrontation on a level that does nothing but favor the proliferation of wild boars and consequently damages the agriculture of the region "(Daily Virtues).
