  • Brief description

    In a hunting district, in addition to the responsible public authorities, hunting protection is the responsibility of the person authorized to hunt, provided they hold a hunting license, and the hunting wardens confirmed by the district administrative authority.

  • Description

    Hunting protection includes, in particular, the protection of game from poachers, food shortages, game diseases, from damage caused by animal species not subject to hunting law, insofar as these are not subject to special protection under nature conservation law, from unsupervised dogs and cats, as well as ensuring compliance with the regulations issued for the protection of game and hunting.

    The lower hunting authority (district administrative authority) is responsible for confirming hunting wardens.

  • Prerequisites

    Confirmation as a game warden may only be refused if the game warden does not hold a valid annual hunting license or if there are concerns about their personal reliability or professional suitability. These grounds for refusal are mandatory.

    As a rule, there are no objections to professional suitability if proof is provided of several years of practical experience in managing hunting grounds and of the required knowledge of the tasks and powers of confirmed gamekeepers.

Proof of the required knowledge can also be provided through previous forestry, police or legal training or in another way.
