Hunting industry efficiency improvement by trophy business development

Abstract

The сurrent stage of development of hunting in Belarus can be called transition from extensive to intensive development of wildlife, from the predominance of public hunting animals to state public with a maximum commercialization. It is important to determine the impact of this transition. As a result of studying the experience of the trophycase in Europe, assess the situation with growing trophies in Belarus and comparing the results of certain conclusions that allow us to say that a problem is detected in hunting activities – against the background of a relatively small number of red deer observed withdrawal from the male population with high trophy qualities horns without regard to their maximum ages, which in turn leads to significant losses in the reproductive process of the population.
