the Government has hammered the new rules for the so-called fjälljakten in order to reduce pressure from foreign hunters. Hunters residing in Sweden, or with closer ties to Sweden, should have preference to hunt.
the Rules apply to small game on state land above the cultivation line and in the renbetesfjällen. They will take effect next year, according to the amended regulation that the government has decided on.
The current rules, which have been in force since 2007, has meant that hunters from other countries have had the same opportunity to hunt small game hunters residing in Sweden. Many Norwegian and Italian hunters have taken it.
the County, which has the responsibility to grant the right to hunt, may, by the new rules, more opportunities to handle the pressure.
But there will be no residence requirement in Sweden for the right to hunt. It may suffice that a person owns a property, run a business or work here for that he or she should be able to get the right to hunt.
