Hunting in Latvia

Latvia has long and well established hunting tradi-tions. If in 1684 German authorities completely pro-hibited for local residents to hunt, then today thousands of hunters in Latvia consider hunting as a sport, leisure pastime, profession and even a way of life, because hunting is not about the shooting, but about appreciating nature and the things it has to yield.

Today the most popular kinds of hunting in Latvia are beating, stand and still hunting. During beating mostly roe deer, red deer, wild boars, moose and small carnivores are hunted.

Waterfowl are also very popular kind of game, and the opening of the hunting season on waterfowl in August could be considered more like a holiday for more than 19'000 active hunters of Latvia rather than everyday hunting.

Due to the fact that Latvia has comparatively mild climate it is possible to enjoy different kinds of hunting, both in summer and frosty winter.
