Résumé The scope of this Law is the regulation of relations in the field of hunting and hunting management. Hunting is the search, tracking and pursuit for the purpose of procurement, attempt of procurement or procurement (shooting, catching) of wild animals (products of their life activity) living in a state of natural freedom. It is equated to hunting: (a) presence on the territory of hunting grounds with hunting gear in the uncovered state (collected) and other types of hunting implements or hunting products; (b) the presence of persons with hunting gear in uncovered condition (assembled) on the roads of common use, without documents certifying the legality of hunting production (hunting ticket, hunting permit for wild fauna species, hunting voucher (hunting card). It is not a hunting activity when security officers (gamekeepers) of hunting grounds with service weapons are present on the territory of hunting grounds while performing their official duties. Hunting economy shall be established on the territory of hunting ground to carry out activities related to biotechnical measures for the protection and rational use of wildlife, keeping records of the number of wild fauna species and records of the captured wild animals, as well as providing hunting services to legal entities and natural persons. The main directions of the state policy in the field of hunting and hunting economy are: (a) ensuring protection, rational use, conservation of hunting resources and hunting grounds; (b) development and implementation of state programs; (c) state rationing; (d) development of hunting tourism; (e) creation of favourable conditions for attracting investments into the development of hunting and hunting economy; (f) development of research activities; (g) implementation of state control; and (h) development of international cooperation. Wild fauna species living in a state of natural freedom, as well as those released into hunting grounds, including those outside the hunting grounds in which they were raised, are state property and constitute the State Hunting Fund. Hunting (game) resources include wild fauna species that are used or can be used for hunting purposes, as well as wildlife products. Hunting grounds are lands, waterbodies and forests that are habitats, locations and breeding grounds for wild fauna species, and routes of their migration that are used or can be used for hunting. The following activities shall be prohibited on the territory of hunting grounds: (a) performance of agricultural, reclamation, forestry and other works by methods resulting in death of wild fauna species; (b) unauthorized collection of eggs, destruction of nests of wild birds, destruction of huts, dens and other dwellings of wild animals, except for cases related to the regulation of the number of wild fauna species; (c) burning dry vegetation and its remainders on agricultural land and lands of other categories; and (d) destruction of vegetation, burning of reeds and other thickets of wild plants in the habitats where wild fauna species live, stay and reproduce, as well as the routes of their migration. State monitoring of hunting resources and their habitats is a system of regular observations of the number and population of hunting resources, their dynamics distributed by wild fauna species and the state of their habitats. State monitoring of hunting resources and their habitats is a part of the State Environmental Monitoring. Data from the State Monitoring of Hunting Resources and their Habitats are used to ensure rational use, conservation of hunting resources and their habitats.
