We want to remind you that hunting, in addition to an excellent hobby, is also a very responsible occupation. In order for species diversity not to decrease and be in balance, a so-called sustainable approach to hunting is needed. Sustainability is ensured by constant monitoring of game stocks and the correct determination of the size of the hunt, depending on the stage of development of the livestock.

Do not forget about the hunting ethics as well. Namely, about the right habits of a hunter and a reasonable choice. The hunter must use his own judgment and critically evaluate the consequences of his actions.

As you probably know, hunting requires a license, and anyone who has a hunting license (hunting license) and a weapon permit can get it. Here it is worth remembering that, by analogy with agriculture, in good breeding years, the crop is harvested more, in bad years, fishing activity and catches are reduced. This means that the number and type of animals allowed for hunting are determined every season, according to regional and territorial shooting limits.

Poaching is a thankless occupation that adversely affects the natural development of the fauna and the existence of rare animal species. We sincerely hope that you share our opinion and take care of the animal population, following the rules and recommendations for hunting.
