Waiting to define some aspects introduced by the ordinance number 50 approved yesterday concerning the provisions on the maintenance of the fixed stalking this morning the presidency of the CCT has returned to urge the Governor Rossi for the extension to authorized hunters of the wildlife containment activities Art 37 LR 3/94 Tuscany and for the reopening of the selection hunt. Specifically there is a letter sent with the request for urgent measures to safeguard agricultural crops and to give an important signal to wildlife management and ATC activity.
Here is one of the most important passages of the letter: “We refer in particular to the possibility of extend to licensed hunters, the wildlife control operations (Art. 37 LR 3/94) on some wild populations which at this moment are causing serious damage to quality agricultural crops with serious consequences for the sector and for the excellent productions of the Tuscan territory. To date, in fact, following a previous ordinance, these activities can only be carried out by Supervisory agents and by the Voluntary Hunting Guards referred to in art. 51 LR 3/94.
This our request is added to the one presented in recent days by all major regional agricultural organizations and by the Coordination of the Tuscan ATCs. By extending control interventions to authorized hunters and with them also the reopening of the forms of hunting permitted in single form by our regional legislation (selection hunting of Cervidae, Bovidae and Boar), it will be possible to achieve important management results not only for the agricultural world but also for the financial statements of ATC, safeguarding the resources destined to compensate for damage caused by wildlife ”.
