Our interlocutor — Znamenskaya Inga Igorevna. Wildlife biologist. The Chairman of the Board of the Sverdlovsk regional Union of Hunters Association of the RALOs.
My question about population dynamics of wild animals in the land of the Inga Igorevna answered directly: “OKS, dear! What dynamics?! By what technique to count? Over the last five years the technique ZMU has changed three times!!! I can objectively say the number of deer and elk is increasing. The wild boar numbers keep, in connection with the threat of ASF, the level of recommendation. The attendance of the lands not falling — there’s nothing to hunt. With an overall drop in the number of members of the Union due to the introduction of the hunting ticket of the uniform sample attendance areas do not fall, but in some farms is increasing. And growing only thanks to the fact that the “traders” limit the right to hunt. The records of common species is not carried out. Strictly limited to either overcharge or leave the permissions for myself. There is money — do not mind. In one of the private farms has bred such a number of wild boars started the decline in the numbers of upland game.
Where to go simple for the hunter. Or to us, or lands of General use. And there, with the massive influx of uncontrolled, crazy “hunters”, soon formed an ecological desert.
Well, one problem — the hunting ticket. There is another. The course taken to stifle Union of hunters through the withdrawal of the hunting, to anything good will not. In many societies, Oir has ended or expiring long-term licenses. We have, since the beginning of this year, in lands of common use were transferred to 25 farms. Three more on the way. Defend management in the court. Endless trial and take funds and time. And things there.
In February applied for the consolidation of the land Department for the protection of wildlife refused, citing the constitutional court’s judgment of 25.06.2015 g., imposing a moratorium on the conclusion of agreements without an auction. Although this decision of the constitutional court explicitly States that the legislator immediately! — is obliged to take measures to eliminate uncertainty of the normative content of part 3 of article 71 of the Law “On hunting”, i.e. to specify in law the timing of the consultations the Belarusian delegation agreements. To address this issue, the COP established a definite moratorium on the transition of legal entities with long-term licenses for consultations the Belarusian delegation agreement.
Collectively, and individually addressed to the President of the Russian Federation V. V. Putin, the Governor, in the party. The answer was received only from the Deputy United Russia Chuichenko R. Yu, they say, the law prepared for the second reading, the adoption is postponed for the spring session of 2016.
The spring session of the successfully held and ended with great fanfare. Where is the law? Where Chuichenko? To be honest, twenty thousand hunters, and with them together and even relatives, friends, acquaintances will vote for the party and who will return us to the hunting economy”.
This is not a very optimistic note, ended my conversation with I. Znamenskaya. Don’t want to help, don’t bother. To break — not to build. Hunting — not for agriculture, breeding bulls will not be delivered. Due to sanctions it will not raise. And the situation is getting worse. And the damage to wildlife from short-sighted and unwise policy of the state or its individual representatives may be irreparable.
PS At the time when the material was set to be released in print, in the Union of oir Sverdlovsk region held its reporting-election conference. The Chairman of the Board elected Inga I. Znamenskaya. We congratulate and wish every success!
