Preserving and creating habitats for wetland species ensures greater biodiversity.

Description of the action

To increase the security of habitat for ground- and grid-nesting birds (e.g. roe deer, black grouse, wood grouse), make agreements with hunters to hunt small predators, especially roe deer and fox.

Why?

The wild duck is one of the main egg destroyers of hens (sometimes even up to 95% of eggs). It is important to keep the abundance of wild ducks low in order to increase the number of ducks.
