HUNTING CALENDAR
We may say that hunting appeared on Earth in the same time with
the human being.
At the beginning, it was a necesity, representing the
only way people could provide food, fur and leather clothing for their
families.
In the modern time, hunting was no longer considered a
mean of survival, becaming a sport activity, a way of recreation for the
aristocracy. Greek historian Xenophon argued that hunting is an asset to
society, considering that the recreation promotes the well-being and the
health of the hunter. The first laws designed to conserve game animals were
instituted in the 13th century, when Kublai Khan, emperor of the Mongols,
forbade his subjects to hunt during animal breeding seasons.
The invention of gunpowder in
the 14th century and the perfection of the matchlock rifle in the
15th century
represented a very important moment in the hunting history. The hunting
methods became much easier and with better results.
Hunting in Romania has proved to be a
great adventure for those who have tried it. A great variety of landscapes
populated by a large number of wild animals are waiting to be discovered.
So, come to join us to a great
hunting in the beautiful landscapes of Romania !
