The hunting season is over? No, in fact a hunting season continues, in the months of February to the end of March there is still plenty of hunting. Deer goats and calves are hunted, among other things, to maintain a healthy population. January is also a top month for Reintje, who is thinking about the offspring, and is also active every day. For hunting rights holders of a small game hunt, important months have come to regulate the right beaks (Magpie and Crow), with fall from 15 February.
Now due to corona, the season in the Ardennes is also continuing, to get the shooting of wild boar and red deer up to point, although this will normally not be achieved. And then we have the Burgundians who have lost their hearts in France. They always hunt until the end of February (January and February are peak months).
For us, the hunting season should be delayed in any case because in the month of October there is still a lot of leaves on the trees and still much too hot, not optimal.
Ree
There are additional conditions attached to hunting roe deer. A roe deer culling plan is only granted to game management units and to hunters with a hunting area that is either at least 1000 ha in size or that includes at least 250 ha cover.
When assessing the culling application, the Agency for Nature and Forests takes into account the criteria of the three-year culling plan for roe deer. A calculation module can be found on www.reewild.be.
