📗📯🌿 #BiodiversityManifesto Project of Month🏅: NO CHANCE for POACHERS! 🇮🇹 Italian #hunters volunteer to stop #poaching!

⚠️ Illegal killing of wildlife is a serious threat to biodiversity & sustainable hunting❗️That’s why over 4 years Italian Hunting Associations use an Anti-Poaching Action Plan to help wildlife conservation and put an end to illegal killing. 👏👏👏

🟢 Examples of HOW Italy’s hunters HELP conserve wildlife are the:
➡️ LIFE PERDIX project "Italian Grey Partridge reintroduction in Italy"
➡️ LIFE+ project "Reason for Hope: Reintroduction of the Northern Bald Ibis in Europe"
➡️ Anti-Poison Dog Units

✅ Italian Hunting Associations set an excellent example for successful implementation and enforcement of EU environmental legislation – such as the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030❗️

🇮🇹🌿📯📖🤩 Take a look at their work in our Biodiversity Manifesto – which shows how Europe’s hunters conserve biodiversity:

🔴Did you know?🔴

❌ Poaching is an illegal activity that involves the killing of wildlife and therefore poachers are criminals.

✅ Hunting is a legal, sustainable activity – as it is strictly regulated by legislations. ⚖️

⚠️Why is hunting necessary?⚠️

✅🔬📊 Much scientific evidence supports that hunting regulates and conserves wildlife populations – including 👉 endangered animals like markhor, whitetail deer, black bear, ducks, waterfowl, and many more! 🌿📯🦌🐦🐐🐻...

🎉Happy World Curlew Day 2021!🌎🐦🌱

🔴 Sadly, the Curlew has declined by > 90% since 1980 in Ireland!

🏅🐦🏅Curlew Conservation Success Story: Small-scale community-based project by hunters 📯🇮🇪 becomes one of Ireland’s best practice demonstration sites on how to manage raised bogs for breeding Curlew. 🐣🌿

⚠️ Main focus:
➡️ Habitat & predator management
➡️ Disturbance control

🆘🐦The Grey Partridge in Belgium needs your help! @hvv_devlaamsejager started petition: Support the Grey Partridge in Flanders.📝🐦🇧🇪

👉 How hunters conserve the Grey Partridge 🤔❓

✅ creating beetle banks
✅ managing field corners
✅ feeding during wintertime
✅ legal predator management
✅ scientific monitoring of the species
✅ & much more.

👉 What are threats to the Grey Partridge 🤔❓

❌ lack of suitable habitat
❌ shortage of insects during the chick-food foraging period
❌ predation
❌ Anti-hunting groups that push to ban hunting

✅ Sustainable hunting is not a problem, but banning hunting will be bad news 👎🏼 for the species because it will significantly reduce hunters' conservation efforts.

🔴 Save this important species 🔴
