The request to suspend the 2017-2018 hunting calendar of Sicily has been rejected since Regional Administrative Court. We are talking about the appeal presented by Legambiente, WWF and the Italian Bird Protection League (LIPU): the hearing has been set in the council chamber for the next September 15th. This means that Sicilian hunters will be able to exploit the pre-opening without problems.
According to environmentalists and animal rights activists, the opinions of ISPRA and the national law were not respected, without forgetting the request for postpone the opening of the hunt due to fires and drought (the suggested date was 1 October). However, it should be emphasized that the Sicilian calendar is not appreciated even by the local hunting world.
In particular, he did discuss the ban for the extra-regional hunters, which cannot take any garments in the period established by the Region for the pre-opening. In just over two weeks there will be news with the hearing just scheduled, but the season will not suffer any delay or limitation.
