Foreign hunting web sites go on offering an opportunity to hunt in
Armenia for the Armenian moufflon and bezoar goat involved in the
Red Book
As the head of the company "Club of legal hunting" Edward Saribekyan
said at today's press-conference, all his attempts to draw attention
of the relevant bodies at these hunting tours failed. He said that
Armenia's Nature Protection Ministry should be responsible for the
"Red Book" hunting, but it does not take any serious steps. One
of the foreign web sites offers hunting for moufflon for several
thousands dollars - www.huntingconsortium.com. Another web site
http://www.huntingconsortium.com/asia-armenia.htm, offers hunting
not only for moufflon and bezoar goat but also brown bear.
Saribekyan also drew attention to the fact that there is no control
over the local hunters in Armenia. He used to inform Armenian Nature
Protection Ministry about the facts of poaching, but no specific
actions were taken to catch poachers. For this reason, he thinks that
only civil activeness may become the only way out from the created
situation. He also added that any person which may deliver a copy of
his passport, two photos and 5 thsd drams may get a hunter's license.
For this reason, the control over getting the hunter's license should
be tightened, he said.
To note, the hunting season was opened in Armenia on 25 August and
will last till 28 February 2013.
