The undersigned citizens and representatives of Italian and other countries' committees and associations aware of the appeal of Franca Ghirardini, mother of Andrea Papi, 26 years old, torn from his family, fiancée and friends by a tragic event that could have been avoided,

They express their closeness and solidarity with the family aware that all populations living in mountain areas and rural areas must make their voices heard on the issue of the reintroduction and proliferation of large predators.

They express their will not to abandon the family and the community of Caldes who are demanding justice for Andrea and the drastic reduction of the bear population in Trentino, which has grown dramatically due to a project that got out of hand due to the arrogance and incompetence of the promoters of the reintroduction.
