Joint operations
It should be noted that since this year, joint operations have been carried out regularly with the services of the gendarmerie, municipal police and the French Biodiversity Office.

2 training sessions for private guards
In collaboration with the Departmental Directorate of Territories and the Sea (our supervisory administration), a dozen private guards (volunteers) have been trained and will join the 70 volunteer guards of the Landes and the federal daycare.

The implementation of this new department-wide daycare policy was launched in early 2020 with the strengthening of the federal daycare, the FD / AAPPMA and inter-AAPPMA pooling, the monitoring of controls and the accentuation of the rounds of night.
