On November 18th, 2022, Humane Society International/Europe has delivered more than 4,000 postcards signed by Italian citizens to the Ministry of Environment and Energy Security urging Minister Gilberto Pichetto Fratin to ban the import, export and re-export, to and from Italy, of hunting trophies obtained from animals belonging to internationally protected species. HSI/Europe had launched in Italy an explicit appeal to the Italian population in the weeks ahead of this action, inviting them, through a special platform, to sign a postcard addressed to Minister Pichetto Fratin to support the #NotInMyWorld campaign, at a politically crucial time for animal protection, given the installation of the new government. "Time for postcards, not hunting trophies, to be sent from abroad!" is the slogan accompanying the postcard delivery.
