The hunting tradition is a vigorous component of the Romania material and spiritual culture

The originality and diversity of its ways of expression have their origin in the richness of the fauna, specific to the area sustained by the Carpathian arch. The Carpathians have constitutedand continue to represent, in terms of fauna, a fabulous and favored area for the development of animal populations of different species , with vigorous and well represented numbers.

The presence of the great predators, the bear, the lynx and the wolf represents an element that grants the continuity of the natural selection process. Over time, this has consistently ensured Romania s supremacy at major international hunting competitions, through exceptional trophies of chamois, red deer, wild boar, roe deer, to which are added the seeded players in the world hierarchy such as the bear, wolf and the lynx. Almost the entire pallet of the game species specific to the temperate area of Europe can be found in the hunting grounds administrated by the Romanian National Forest Administration Romsilva.

Due to a thorough hunting tradition, growing in specific natural habitats and a continuous natural selection, the hunting in Romania has remained wild and vigorous.

All species of wild animals in Romania are in one way or another protected by law. For this reason, those whose hunting is permitted, have mentioned in the current legislation, the legal periods in which their hunting is allowed, and there are different periods from one species to another. Also, in order to protect the game, the permitted hunting methods are adapted to each game species and to the Romanian hunting and cultural traditions.

Before any hunting party begins, a thorough technical and work protection training is required for the activities to be carried out on the field, regardless of the number of hunters or beaters.
