Following the decision of Tar of Venice that accepting the appeal presented by Lipu, Wwf, Enpa, Lav and Lac, suspended the Veneto regional hunting calendar in the part in which it allowed pre-opening to magpie, jay, hooded crow and wild dove from 2 September, Federcaccia turned to Veneto region to ask for an immediate intervention that will allow hunters to collect the turtledove.
“Federcaccia has already asked the regional institutions for an immediate resolution that will allow the taking of the wild turtledove - states the national presidential councilor Oscar Stella - I remember that the Ministry and Ispra believe that a two-day pre-opening forecast for the species is correct, with a maximum withdrawal of 5 animals per day ”.
"Other TARs have already considered the motivations produced by our Studies and Research Office to be sufficient in support of the pre-opening to the turtle dove, so I expect a very urgent response from the Region that resolves this absurd penalization of the Veneto hunters ”concluded Stella.
