Attention hunters!
In accordance with the Hunting Rules, from May 15 to September 30, 2025, hunting for adult male roe deer, as well as selective animals of this species of any sex and age, is permitted in the Republic of Belarus.
Hunting for roe deer is allowed throughout the day using methods such as ambush and stalking. The use of rifled (with a muzzle energy of over 1500 joules), smooth-bore (using cartridges loaded with bullets or buckshot), and projectile (hunting bows and crossbows) hunting weapons is permitted as hunting tools.
For tracking downed and pursuing wounded hoofed game animals, it is permitted to use pointing dogs, spaniels, retrievers, terriers, and dachshunds, as well as dogs of other breeds that have a field diploma for blood tracking.
The issuance of permits for roe deer harvesting to hunters is carried out by hunting ground users in accordance with the approved plans for the removal of game animals of regulated species.
We remind you that illegal harvesting of roe deer may entail criminal liability in accordance with Part 2 of Article 282 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Belarus, which provides for the deprivation of the right to hunt with a fine, restriction of liberty for up to two years, or imprisonment for up to three years. In addition, a person who has committed this crime is obliged to compensate for the damage caused to the environment in the amount of 120 base units for each illegally harvested roe deer.
