“I do not know that they were activated by the mayor of Municipality of Gallicano the procedures for soliciting the intervention of the Region so that the wild boar that roamed the town was captured. We learned the story of his killing from the press ”. Thus the regional councilor for agriculture Marco Remaschi replies to the letter addressed to him by a group of citizens of Gallicano following the killing of a wild boar cub with a shot from a firearm in the area of sports facilities.
"The regional legislation - explains Remaschi - provides for a precise procedure in situations of this kind: it is the mayor who, in the presence of ungulates that can constitute a potential danger to public safety and road traffic safety, requests the Region to activate control interventions, indicating the problematic area. At that point the competent regional structure authorizes the provincial police to implement the interventions requested by the mayor ”.
"In Gallicano this did not happen because the Region did not receive any indication. Unfortunately, the cases of presence of ungulates in inhabited centers are less and less sporadic: this is why we have provided this possibility to intervene quickly to address the problem and solve it. with capture, and not with these unacceptable as well as illegal actions "(Lucca Live).
