Abstract

This Order establishes the procedure for regulation of the number of wild fauna species by the authorized state institution in the field of protection, reproduction and management of wild fauna species in accordance with biological substantiation. Biological substantiation shall be intended scientifically substantiated conclusion on the use of wildlife, determination of the allowable volume of removal of wildlife species, as well as activities that may affect wildlife species and their habitats.
