Hunting protection (hunting)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The fighter protection includes, as determined by the Federal Hunting Act and the game laws of the German states to protect the wild before poachers , Futternot, wildlife diseases, poaching dogs and cats . Hunting protection is also responsible for ensuring compliance with the regulations issued for the protection of game and hunting . These include, among other things, the regulations on the rest of the hunt ( pacified district ), on the hunting license and the hunting permit , on the hunting restrictions in terms of factual, place and time and on the special obligations when hunting .

In addition to the police , the hunting overseers confirmed by the responsible hunting authorities and those authorized to practice the hunt themselves are obliged to and responsible for hunting protection , provided they have a valid hunting license . The confirmed game overseers, who are trained as professional hunters or forestry , have the powers and duties of the police officers in matters of hunting protection and are investigators of the public prosecutor's office ( Section 25 (2) BJagdG). Under the respective conditions, you are then entitled, for example, to stop people, determine personal details or to remove shot game, weapons, fishing gear, dogs and ferrets .

This does not affect everyone's right to provisionally arrest suspects who have been caught in the act if there is a risk of flight or if their identity cannot be determined immediately, and if necessary to defend themselves against acts of resistance by the (justified) arrested person.
