Descripción
Sustainable game management requires adequate and reliable information about the extent and state of existing resources and the changes in those resources over time. In Serbia, after the adoption of the Law on Game Management and Hunting in 2010, hunting areas were established in order to implement existing strategic planning documents, and to take appropriate measures for the protection and improvement of game populations. Despite this, game management and hunting practices in the country remain unsatisfactory and the Draft Hunting Development Strategy of Serbia (2015-2029) has never been adopted. As a result, considering the current state of game populations and management in Serbia, it is evident that both the number and the spatial distribution of the majority of game species are not in accordance with the natural carrying capacities of the habitat. This unfavourable situation is related to weaknesses in the 2010 Law and subordinate legislation, all of which should be reviewed by wildlife and legal experts to ensure that a future game management system complies with good practices and sustainability standards.
