The Atc 3 writes to the prefect of Terni: allow hunting wild boar in pursuit, even outside the municipality of residence of the hunters involved. This is the request that the president ofAtc Umbria 3 Terni - Orvieto, Laonardo Fontanella, presented to the prefect of Terni. An instance concerning the “boar problem”, as Fontanella defines it. He explains: "This period of stoppage that forced hunters to suspend hunting has created and is still creating enormous problems for the maintenance of the consistency of the species within acceptable limits, which is already difficult to achieve in times of peace.
In order to contain the damage to agriculture that could prove to be very large, it is necessary that at least all containment activities: from stalking, shot and the same hunt can resume as soon as possible, overcoming the limitations imposed by the various Dpcm on prevention. of the contagion from SARS COV2". For the president of the ATC 3, all forms of hunting are compatible with the anti Covid regulations. But he still asks that priority be given to at least the wild boar hunting. "Although we are convinced that all forms of hunting could be aimed safely - reads the letter - we believe that with regard to the ATC, priority must be given to the containment of the wild boar over all, in order to avoid that large sums must be diverted from the management activities of the Entity to liquidate the damage to agriculture".
Hence the request to the prefect to "take action to allow wild boar hunting teams, selecontrollers, those authorized to turn, to be able to deploy all the energy necessary for the containment, not hunting, of the wild boar". On the other hand, it is noted, already in October the teams themselves had been authorized to carry out containment measures. This is why it is asked that, in compliance with anti Covid measures, the teams of wild boar hunters are authorized to resume their activity, “authorizing all members to move from their municipality of residence to participate in the hunts of their team. Same thing with respect to the posting and the endorsement ". And the same for the volunteer guards, if their presence was deemed necessary. A measure that has already been taken by other prefects in Regions in the orange area. In Perugia, however, the prefect, urged by the councilor Morroni, followed the restrictive interpretation of the Dpcm (Still today).
