Abstract

The right of hunting is connected in most European states to the right of property, but in a number of countries this right belongs to the state or local communities. According to the community opinion, the connection between the right of hunting and ownership of the land presents advantages first of all for the conservation of fauna as it limits the number of hunters through increased control and secondly because the private owner has the interest of maintaining their source of income given by their hunting capital. In Europe, generally, where the hunting right is related to ownership of the land, there is a minimum area which gives the right to establish a hunting wildlife allowing the owner to lease this right or to practice hunting themselves.
