A problem that needs to be addressed urgently
“The problem of wildlife in free movement in Marche, as in the whole country, is becoming a very delicate and complex issue that needs to be tackled with even more effectiveness and planning between all the competent territorial subjects, with the Region in the lead”: this is what the regional councilor for hunting and all 'Agriculture Andrea Maria Antonini. It is a worrying and rapidly growing phenomenon in the entire Marche basin which is recorded every day, in addition to the already known and widespread one relating to the movement of wild boars (with extensive damage to crops and private property, and cause of road accidents), also that of the presence of wolves which, with increasing frequency, are becoming the protagonists of attacks against sheep and other farm animals.
Reference standards

"To deal with this difficult situation - explains the councilor Antonini - in line with the national regulatory framework (wildlife law) and European (competence on wolves as endangered animals), aware that there is no single and decisive solution , we believe it is appropriate to lay the foundations for an operational and concerted plan between all the bodies involved (Region, Provinces, national and regional parks, Municipalities), with the active involvement of hunters, environmental associations and farmers.
What will happen after the Christmas period
Only by joining forces and sharing ideas will it be possible to concretely stem the negative effects and consequences on man of this serious problem which, data in hand, is unfortunately gaining more and more space and foothold in our region".
