"hunting scandal," Senate takes time limits for hunting
ROME. The Senate adopted the Article 38 of EU law and opens the door to unregulated hunting with the approval of the amendment of the Senator of the People of Freedom, James Santini, leaving the regions with the limitless possibilities of extending the hunting season ( currently falls between September 1 and January 31). The text was approved in the Senate and must return to the House before final approval. More than 100 associations had asked for a speech to the Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi, "to stop the killing." "It is outrageous to have a Parliament that legislates a total benefit of hunters," he com-mented Dante Caserta, national director of WWF Italy.
«La stragrande maggioranza degli italiani è contraria alla caccia, ma nonostante questo il Senato ha approvato una norma che di fatto apre alla caccia selvaggia. L’Italia inaugura proprio bene il 2010 che è stato dichiarato Anno Internazionale della biodiversità. An-dando contro a qualunque regola di gestione faunistica e contro quanto prevede l’Unione Europea, i senatori che hanno votato per far sparare tutto l’anno di fatto hanno accolto le istanze della lobby dei cacciatori e dei fabbricanti di armi, non curandosi minimamente di ciò che effettivamente vogliono gli italiani».
Il Wwf continuerà a contrastare questa norma e si augura che alla Camera si potrà ribaltare «questo voto vergognoso».
"'The limits of the season have jumped," said Lipu and ENPA (National animal protection) that clarified that "the avoidance of doubt," with the approval of the text of Community law in the Senate "is completely false that limits on September 1 - January 31 have been restored from Ronchi sub-amendment to Community law, which simply excludes from the cement-approved standard three species of mammals. "
The truth, they warn, is that "for many species of birds, migratory or not, the government is asking for the extension of the hunt for the months of February, August and who knows what else." In short, they conclude, "a new assault on nature."

wins the gun lobby, but it loses Italy
EDITORIAL
While the world wonders on what measures are really effective to protect an environment that, with the arrogance el'insipienza typical of our species, we have degraded until you get a long, slow death in the name of cancer and degenerative diseases, the Senate approves of the Italian people amendment on which the hunters moderates, those who respect the art of hunting, grumbling in silence. Should, God forbid, the House also passed, Italy would become one of the most backward countries of the enlarged Europe, in environmental protection and wildlife.
Today the hunting takes place in Italy during the period from September to late January. Five long months that see dozens of species, including the majority of migration, decimated during periods of the past, when countries allow more civilians, who does the mysterious and wonderful journey we call migration, to rest in the waters, in lawns or friends among the branches of trees. But for the lobby of gunsmiths, hunters even more so for those of extremists, five months is not enough more. Not even a negative opinion of the Institute for the Protection and Environmental Research, even the initially negative opinion of that Minister Ronchi have managed to stem the economic interests and the wild passions of those who want to give regions the opportunity to depart on the number of months when you can go hunting. This means that the regions may decide in August or February we can continue to hunt.
"So - I say sadly Danilo Selvaggi, Lipu - who gave the first peaceful walks in early February, will have to wait until March before they disappear from their rifles home soil." Consider then in August, with forests and meadows filled with tourists and hunters already sharing regular accountants for wild boar. Brambilla
Minister is very concerned. "Beyond the political positions - he says - Italy is a country where tourism is a driving force for the economy and can not afford to bring those who love being in touch with nature at risk of being impallinato, as sadly and too often the case in the canonical five months of hunting. An amendment is unacceptable. "
The paradox is that whatever happens in the context of EU law which serves to Italy to meet the challenges of the European Commission. On this matter the Board denies Italy to hunt "and too bad," not to legislate to prohibit assoluto nei periodi di migrazione, e di concedere troppe deroghe. «Viste tali premesse - conclude con triste ironia Selvaggi - l’Italia si organizza per cacciare ancora di più e peggio». Naturalmente pagheremo con le nostre tasse le multe che l’Europa ci comminerà per la nostra folle disobbedienza.
Sento già le veementi repliche dei cacciatori, specie di quelli più estremisti (senatore Carrara, sono certo che il direttore è pronto a ospitare il dibattito), però mi si conceda che, dai cacciatori moderati e saggi (e ce ne sono!) mi aspettavo una presa di posizione netta e contraria circa un provvedimento che disonora i puristi dell’ars venandi e che, se disgraziatamente dovesse passare alla Camera, si tramuterà in a Pyrrhic victory for the majority that he will find a resounding electoral loss of votes. Meditate, ladies and gentlemen, when it's your turn to decide.
