Travel / Fishing in Poland - where to go, what to catch? [74]
Wildlife in Poland has not been hunted to extinction, far from in. On my farm herds of deer, flocks of pheasants and Hare are very common, more than daily sights. Hunters feeds the wild boar and deer in winter. Pheasants are reared in massive numbers then released (only 20% of the farm reared Pheasants are shot the rest fall to natural predators). Hunters have to pay a fee for every animal they kill - Hare cost 75zl for instance.
Dogs can be shot if they are more than 150m away from a house without a collar; not nice but they are dangerous themselves.
