Hunting exhibition

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hunting exhibitions are hunting-related exhibitions that serve public relations work on the entire hunting world and, as trade fairs, give an overview of the market for hunting accessories.

In addition to the local and regional trophy or antler shows , some of which are organized by the hunting organizations as mandatory shows, there have also been international hunting exhibitions since the middle of the 19th century.

In public relations, the focus is on information on developments in hunting, both internally and increasingly externally, on all topics related to hunting, hunting culture, hunting customs , cooperation with agriculture and nature and animal protection .

history

Hunting exhibitions came up with the emerging rich bourgeoisie. It wanted to upgrade its position vis-à-vis the nobility by showing trophies that previously only the nobility could capture. The first displays of victory signs of these hunters are said to have taken place from 1850. The assessment of the trophies under comparable conditions was important for the development of exhibitions. For this purpose, evaluation formulas were developed to enable an objective evaluation. The first antlers were awarded prizes in Graz in 1890. Count Meran developed a formula for beauty points in 1894. The English company Rowland Ward developed a formula to record the commercial value of antlers. The Nadler formula was first used in Vienna in 1910. Exhibitions as trophy shows were legally anchored in Germany with the Reichsjagdgesetz . From 1937 the Prague formula was used. The CIC formula has been used since 1971 .
