to this is hunting for foxes, raccoon dogs, raccoons, mink and wild boards in coastal bird
hatching areas in Neubessin. Further exceptions to sentence 1 may be allowed in justified
individual cases on application by the persons authorised to hunt or ex officio by the
Higher Hunting Authority in agreement with the Higher Nature Protection Authority.
(3) Game reserves and non-hunting areas must be evaluated by the National Parks
Offices every three years to review their effect on the development of game stocks and the
natural vegetation.
(4) During the period of the autumn crane migration, within a radius of 1000 m around the
cranes' roosting areas, hunting must be carried out in such a way that detrimental effects
to and disturbances of the arriving, resting and sleeping cranes are avoided. Each year,
the National Parks Offices shall define, through a general disposition, the period of the
autumn crane migration, the location of the crane roosting areas and measures
appropriate for the avoidance of disturbances and shall inform the relevant persons
entitled to hunt.
