Hunting rules 2017-2018supplemented by new rules that came into force in September 2014 and August 2015. Despite the fact that the order on the approval of hunting rules in the Russian Federation was adopted in 2010, it does not lose its relevance; and appropriate changes are made as necessary. In our article, we will consider the most important changes in force in 2017 and 2018, as well as the main provisions of the hunting rules in the Russian Federation.

Hunting rules in the Russian Federation

Hunting rules in the Russian Federation were approved by order of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Ecology No. 512 in 2010.

The main purpose of the rules is to establish requirements related to the implementation of hunting and the conservation of hunting resources throughout the Russian Federation.

Already in paragraph 2 of the rules it is said that they do not extend their effect to the protection and use of wild animals that are kept in captivity and are owned by individuals / legal entities or entrepreneurs.

When hunting, the hunter must have with him:

1. Hunting ticket (see:).
2. Permission for a weapon if it is used for hunting (see:).
3. Permission for the extraction of hunting resources (if hunting takes place in public areas).
4. If hunting takes place in fixed hunting grounds, then in addition to a special permit, a permit is required.
5. If hunting is carried out in other places, a permit for the extraction of hunting resources is required.
6. If hunting takes place with the participation of birds of prey, then you must have a special permit for their maintenance and breeding.

Hunters are obliged to present all the above documents at the request of authorized officials.

Hunting can be individual and collective. When carrying out collective hunting for certain species of animals, the citizen in whose name the corresponding permit has been issued is responsible for the procedure for its implementation.

All illegally obtained animals and other products of hunting are subject to gratuitous seizure or confiscation.

In addition, the rules of hunting stipulate that, in order to ensure safety during hunting, it is prohibited:

1. To hunt animals with the use of weapons at a distance of less than 200 meters from the nearest dwelling.
2. If the target is unclear and invisible, it is forbidden to shoot "at the noise" or "at the rustle".
3. Shoot at the birds that are sitting on the wires or poles of power lines.
4. If there is a line of shooters, it is forbidden to shoot if the projectile can pass at a distance of less than 15 meters from the shooter.
5. Shoot at various information signs.
6. Organize animal pens in such a way that the hunters who move in the corral surround all the animals that are in the corral.

Changes in the rules of hunting in the Russian Federation 2017-2018

The last two years have not brought innovations to the hunting rules, so it is worth dwelling on earlier amendments.

Don't know your rights?

Changes in 2015 introduced a new duty for the hunter. After the full use of the hunting permit (i.e. the period of use has expired, the established number of game has been obtained, etc.), the hunter is obliged to send information about the production to the place where the permit was received.

Some changes affected the rules for hunting bears and ungulates.

In September 2014, changes were made to the hunting rules of the Russian Federation regarding the requirements related to the training of hunting dogs and birds of prey. In addition, innovations also affected the timing of hunting for fox, hares and game birds.

Now the owners of hunting dogs divide their hunting season into 2 stages: July 10-July 24 — hunting without the use of firearms (for marsh-meadow game); from 25.07 to 15.11 hunting is allowed not only with dogs, but also with guns.

Earlier in the rules it was fixed that hunting without weapons for field and steppe game is allowed from 08.05 to 12.31, and in the new edition an additional period is established - from 10.07 to 04.08; that is, you can hunt from 10.07. to 31.12.

In addition, hunting for waterfowl without weapons, but with dogs, will now open earlier from 01.08 (previously it opened from the 2nd or 3rd Saturday of August).

If earlier hunting for a fox and a hare with dogs, but without weapons, was opened from 15.09, now the opening date has been moved to 01.09; and from September 15, the same hunting is now allowed, only with weapons.

The new edition of the hunting rules provides for clauses that fix the requirements related to the training of birds of prey and hunting dogs. The changes allow dogs to be trained year-round, but in specially designated areas for training and racing. But in order to reduce the potential damage that is caused to wild animals from regular training of dogs (the so-called disturbance factor), sport and recreational hunting is prohibited in such zones.

Now to the birds that are forbidden to hunt in spring season, carried the gray goose. This ban is associated with a sharp decrease in the population of the gray goose in the territory of the Russian Federation.

In addition, hunters can stay with dogs all year round without a leash, regardless of the timing of hunting in the hunting grounds, but only in the areas of driving and training.

Changes in hunting rules in 2013

Despite the fact that the hunting rules in the Russian Federation were approved back in 2010, in 2013, by order of the Ministry of Natural Resources No. 581, the following important changes were made to them, which I would like to draw attention to:

1. Innovations that apply to all owners of dogs of hunting breeds. Now the training of such dogs should take place in a special zone, which is reserved for this on the territory of the hunting ground, without the use of hunting weapons. Yes, and the training time for dogs has been reduced from the interval “all year round” to the terms provided for by the rules of hunting.
2. The terms of hunting for moose, bears, wolves and European roe deer have undergone significant changes. In addition, the terms of spring hunting for brown bear have been extended; but the changes introduced a ban on saiga hunting.
3. Changes to the hunting rules prohibit shooting at the information sign. From now on, hunting inspectors have a real tool for influencing the offender - bringing to administrative responsibility for violating this ban.
4. Now production hunting inspectors have the right to demand from hunters for inspection: Before the hunters make the primary processing and transportation of the hunted animal, they must make a mark on the back of the permit.
   • permission to extract hunting resources;
   • hunting ticket;
   • a voucher;
   • weapons permit;
   • vehicle.
5. According to the innovations, collective hunting for wolves is equated to collective hunting for bears and artiodactyls.

Administrative punishment for non-compliance with the rules of hunting

Article 8.37 of the Code of Administrative Offenses provides for the following administrative offenses related to non-compliance with the rules of hunting in the Russian Federation:

1. A single violation of the rules of hunting is punishable by an administrative fine in the amount of 500 to 4000 rubles; confiscation of hunting tools (or without it) or deprivation of the right to hunt for up to 2 years.
2. If within 1 year after the first one a repeated offense is committed, then the amount of the fine imposed on the offender increases from 4,000 rubles to 5,000 plus confiscation of hunting tools (or without it); the maximum period of deprivation of the right to hunt is increased to 3 years.
3. If the terms of hunting are violated (with the exception of cases provided for by law), the citizen is deprived of the right to hunt for a period of 1 to 2 years.
4. If a hunter refuses to present to an authorized official for inspection a permit for the extraction of hunting resources, a hunting ticket, a permit or a weapon permit, then he may lose the right to hunt for a period of 1 to 2 years.

Thus, the hunting rules in the Russian Federation, approved in 2010, continue to be valid with changes made to them in September 2014 and August 2015.
