Q

what is a game management plan

A

Q

hunting can be divided into:

A
  1. management suitable area (hunting productive) where game animals have the conditions to live, breed and raise offspring
  2. management unsuitable area (hunting nonproductive) where game animals are found but they don’t provide conditions for breeding and rearing

Q

what is game breeding?

A

it’s the management or control of wildlife for the well being of game and may include killing other animals which share the same niche or predators to maintain a high population of the more profitable speceis

Q

what is manipulative management

A

acts on a population, either changing its numbers by direct means or influencing numbers by the indirect means of altering food supply, habitat, density of predators or prevalence of disease

22
Q

management of hunting seasons

A

open session: when wildlife is allowed to be hunted
limited entry: number of animals take is to be tightly controlled
closed season: when wildlife is protected from hunting and is usually done during breeding season

23
Q

culling

A

acts as a strong selection force and can therefore impact the population genetics of a species

24
Q

hunting license

A

regulatory or legal mechanism to control hunting

purposes: public safety, regulation and conservation of wild animals and regulation of the transmission of animal-borne diseases

25
Q

what is article 1

A

law regulates hunting and game management
management includes breeding, protection, hunting and use of game and its parts

26
Q

article 2

A

legally determined animal species that live freely in nature on surfaces intended for management or intensive management and game breeding for hunting and other use

27
Q

what is the sex ratio

A

primary/ natural 1:1
secondary 1:1,2 / 1:1.5
tertiary 1:6

28
Q

game age categories

33
Q

how to estimate game stocks?

A

direct: observation, capture, mortality counting
indirect: traces of presence, continuous, census (estimation of abundance)

34
Q

types of census

A

spatial (small and large game) counters close three sides of the square, drivers on the 4th

temporal: specific location over a period of time, repeated at regular intervals

pseudo-sample: counting along transects, foot prints

35
Q

basic stock/spring stock

A

abundance of particular game species at the beginning of the hunting year

36
Q

what is the hunting year

A

1st April - 31st march

37
Q

what is breeding stock/parent stock

A

number of sexually mature game at the beginning of the hunting year
they produce annual population growth

38
Q

stock of newborn

total number of newborn animals of the particular game species in some hunting ground during ongoing hunting year

39
Q

annual drop rate

A

all animals of one game species died by predation, accident, disease, weather, poaching
must be calculated before hunting season of ongoing hunting year

40
Q
