"He wasn't on a hunt, he was just a hiker: exploiting someone's suffering to fuel your own battles is truly shameful."

Marco Efisio Pisanu, regional president of the CPTS-Italcaccia hunting association, spoke about the near-tragedy that occurred Sunday in Nurri: a fifty-five-year-old man was rushed to the Brotzu hospital in Cagliari after being trampled and bitten on the head by a wild boar while he was out in the countryside with his dogs. He is a hunter, but yesterday, Sunday, he hadn't been out shooting. He is currently in the hospital, with a critical prognosis.

"What's even more heartbreaking," besides the tragic accident, "are certain comments appearing on social media," Pisanu comments. A man "is seriously injured, his life is in danger , and someone has the vision to exploit this tragic event to attack and fuel hatred against the hunting world."

According to the president of CPTS, "One can have any opinion on hunting, but exploiting a person's suffering to fuel one's own campaigns is truly shameful. All controversy should stop when faced with the lives and suffering of people."
