Regional Law 5 January 1995, n. 7 Rules for the protection of wildlife and for the protection of environmental balance and on the hunting activity discipline.

This Regional Law prescribes several rules regarding the necessary protection of wildlife according to the methods of rational planning of the use of territory and of natural resources, including the issues on the discipline of hunting activities (season, local traditions) in relation to the environmental balance (compliance with the principles and norms established by the Law 11 February 1992, n. 157 on the Community Directives and International Conventions).
As defined by these provisions, the wildlife is a protected environmental good, also under the terms of the Regional Statute, which respect is in the interest of the international, national and regional communities.
The practice of hunting is allowed if it does not conflict with needs of wildlife conservation and if it does not cause any actual damage to the effective agricultural production; one of major objectives of the regional planning in this sense is to promote the maintenance and rehabilitation of natural and semi-natural habitats in order to adapt and increase the population of all species of mammals and birds, naturally living in their wild territory (levels corresponding to ecological, scientific, cultural and recreational needs).
