Hunter investigation in Olbia for fatal dog shooting
Overview
In Olbia, Italy, a hunter was detained by the Carabinieri following an incident in the Su Trambuccone area where he allegedly shot a dog named Zeus and issued death threats to the animal’s owner. Reports indicate the individual entered a fenced private property, attempted to strike the dog with stones, and fired two shots at the animal. The owner reportedly faced death threats in Sardinian while the hunter attempted to hide the dog’s body near a ravine.
As investigations continue, the hunter faces up to four years in prison for the fatal shooting of the Maremma-Abruzzi sheepdog. The incident appears to have stemmed from a dispute regarding property boundaries. Legal scrutiny is also focusing on local regulations that prohibit shooting within 100 meters of residential buildings or workplaces. The animal welfare association Lida has announced its intention to join the proceedings as a civil party to seek the revocation of the man’s firearm permit.
