“Thanks to the new fifteen selecontroller archers, which will be selected shortly by the Parco dei Colli Euganei body, the aim of containing 2 thousand wild boars by the end of 2020 it is likely to be reachable ". The president of Cia Padova, Roberto Betto, relaunches the project to reduce the number of ungulates from the Colli area (according to official estimates, there would even be 10 thousand in the Euganean area). “This is a topic at the top of our agenda -explains Betto-. In one night the wild boars, even with their passage alone, put the crops at risk, species of corn and grapes.
Farmers turned to us, exasperated, to find a solution to a problem that is becoming enormous even in terms of profitability. Wherever they run around, the herds destroy everything". Reason why Cia Padova has brought the matter to the most appropriate fora. “Together with the competent institutions we sat around a table. In addition to the select traditional controllers, archers will be able to give added value, with precise and punctual hunting trips, always in the bed of maximum safety ".
Furthermore, the Province of Padua has given its willingness to intervene outside the boundaries of the Park area, again in relation to the wildlife containment. “In this way, lowland farmers are also protected - concludes the president of Cia Padova-. We are called to carry forward a teamwork to constantly monitor the areas suited to agriculture ".
