"It was just a provocation." Now he defends Gianfranco Bardanzellu, the Regional Council (PDL) to the Sardinian newspaper Unione sarda "he said," The stray dogs how to solve? The ash of dogs. " Almost predictable reaction of the animals and even politicians, such as Undersecretary of Health Francesca Martini (League) that the fight against stray dogs, but no incinerator, has made nearly a flag. "I am outraged - said Martin - a proposal for such uncivil and reminds the Council that in our country 's killing of animals of affection is a crime punishable offense. State laws to protect dogs punish those who are abandoned, abused and killed. "
And again: "I must reiterate that the duty of the representatives of the institutions, as the same Bardanzellu, is to enforce the rules and do not incite to commit crimes, showing ignorance of the laws which should be guaranteed. The stray dogs can not be solved through barbaric slaughter of dogs. " The president of the Italian defense animals and the environment (AIDA) Lorenzo Croce, announced that tomorrow will present to the competent authorities criminal complaint against Bardanzellu for "incitement to abuse of animals.

Also on Aida in Italy is estimated that stray dogs are about 725 000. A phenomenon which is becoming an emergency, especially in the south and islands.
Bardanzellu former National Alliance, the Municipal Council of Olbia said: "Faced with an emergency we must have the courage to strong measures, and even unpopular. To address the problem of stray animals waiting to improve reception facilities, to educate the sterilization and punish those who abandon animals, should be incineration of abandoned dogs. " Yesterday after the partial reverse on blogs, Facebook and sites animal had appeared at his picture with epithets of all kinds, including the less it was insulting, "this handsome Volume dishonors the human species."

In the only animal shelter in the city, near the airport in recent months have brought 104 dogs. All over the island would be more than 65 000 stray dogs.
