Hunting, management and small sedentary game: this will be discussed in the prestigious round table entitled "Small sedentary game: a word of hope!", scheduled at Castel Viscardo Monday 19 August at 17.45 pm, in Piazza IV Novembre at the Federcaccia Festival stand. The event, organized by the municipal section of Federcaccia of the president Massimo Tiracorrendo, is sponsored by the Municipality of Castel Viscardo and realized thanks to the collaboration of the provincial section of Federcaccia Terni and the Umbrian hunting federation.
The theme of the evening is inspired by the book “Small sedentary game”, by the wildlife technician and game biologist Roberto Mazzoni Della Stella, who will be present at the conference as speaker. Della Stella himself will speak immediately after the institutional greetings, brought by the mayor Daniele Longaroni. The main national and regional offices of the Federcaccia will then take the floor, assisted by a technical intervention. In fact, the national president of the Italian Federation of Hunting Massimo Buconi, the regional vicar of Federcaccia Umbra Mauro Bacaro, the provincial president of Federcaccia Terni Giulio Piccioni and Dr. Daniel Tramontana, wildlife technician, member of the national sedentary fauna office of Federcaccia.
For years now, the community of Castel Viscardo hunters has been fighting at the forefront for biodiversity and for the recovery of pheasant and gray partridge species, historically representative of a healthy agricultural land as well as prey coveted by all hunters who love pointing dogs. "We carry on our line - explains the president Tiracorrendo - through environmental improvement interventions, aimed at restoring as much as possible the ideal ecosystem for the two galliformes. At the same time, we continue and intensify the already existing collaboration with the world of farmers, for the protection of purely agricultural areas, damaged by the uncontrolled presence of wild boars ".
The excessive expansion of the suide is one of the main causes of the decline of the two species of birds taken into consideration, which being mainly terricolous become vulnerable during the delicate period of hatching and the first weeks of life of the new born. We will talk about this and more at Castel Viscardo on Monday 19th: an unmissable event for all nature lovers, not just hunters.
