21/01/2022

A new home for the Etruscan Coast Palio? IHP responds: “The Regione should remember also who it is that rescues horses, while the Italian Rescue Centre risks closure”
28/12/2021
- “Apparently the Etruscan Coast Palio has found ‘a new home’, in Cecina, where the next race will be held on 18 April, the previous ones having run at San Vincenzo.” Sonny Richichi, president of IHP (Italian Horse Protection) challenges the Regione Toscana and the Comune di Cecina, following their decision to support the Etruscan Coast Palio. We would remind Eugenio Giani, the President of the Regione Toscana, who has presented the news as a big exciting and popular event and which the organization that he presides has agreed to sponsor, that unfortunately the horses used in this type of traditional event are passive participants who often end up very badly indeed. And we remind him further that the first Italian horse welfare association, IHP, is actually based in Tuscany, and which is fully recognised by the Italian Ministry of Health, its Rescue Centre for mistreated equines being located at Montaione”.

IHP says no to the culling of Giglio’s wild sheep
22/11/2021
- Sonny Richichi commented, regarding the decision taken by the Parco dell’Arcipelago Toscano, in the context of the project ‘Life LetsGoGiglio’, to allow the killing of some 40 or 50 mouflons on the island of Giglio, considered as non-indigenous animals, given that they were taken there in the 1950s (ironically, specifically to protect them).
