  • The organization of the game situation here is about this. There are a series of + these make private arrangements for the shooting rights on individual areas. All game is the property of the land holder. In the case of public land the local gov't [government] employees have first access + then the people of the local parish. According to the revised regulation in parliament now all of Finland upon which there is to be hunting must be organized into hunting club territories. Any areas not so organized in 3 years will be closed to hunting. To be a member of a club a sportsman usually has to pay a small fee ($4.00+/-). Depending on the need for management the member is often required by his terms of membership to give 3 days work a year to management. The biologists are working out effective ways of using this manpower. In other clubs predator control by bounty, predator contests or drivers are part of the effort. In other clubs birds or hares are bought + liberated. The hunter can hunt only on his clubs area. Many of the hunters clubs require a member to report known violations or lose his membership.
