Order No. 335-N of the Minister of Environment validating the List of game species authorized for hunting, setting hunting quotas and hunting periods.

This Order primarily addresses the regulation of hunting activities for the 2024-2025 period. Its main objectives include defining the list of game animals, setting permissible annual harvest quotas, and establishing hunting periods. The document explicitly emphasizes the legal principles of regulated hunting, sustainable resource management, and adherence to established quotas, aligning with broader policy goals of wildlife conservation and sustainable use of biological resources. Key measures outlined include the designation of specific hunting seasons for various game species, with detailed quotas and daily hunting limits for each species. For example, hunting periods are specified for species such as the gray crow, jackdaw, and various waterfowl, with total allowable harvest numbers and daily limits. The document also permits unrestricted hunting of certain species like the gray crow, jackdaw, wolf, and fox during the specified periods. Additionally, it mandates that hunting activities be conducted only on designated days—Thursday through Sunday—and on official holidays, as per relevant legislation. The document emphasizes the issuance of hunting permits to authorized individuals and the importance of contractual arrangements for social use of wildlife resources. Implementation responsibilities are assigned to the Ministry of Environment's Department of Biological Resources, which is tasked with organizing the signing of contracts related to social use of wildlife. The document specifies timelines for the hunting seasons, starting from August 24, 2024, and ending in February 2025, with detailed quotas for each species. It also highlights the role of the Ministry's Public Relations Department in disseminating information about these regulations through mass media. Overall, the document provides a structured legal framework for regulating hunting activities, ensuring compliance with quotas, and facilitating institutional oversight during the specified period.
