From another thread: Good idea. A little inspiration here, perhaps... http://www.cic-wildlife.org/index.php?id=823 Quote: The Czech Committee of National Culture recently approved "Hunting traditions and management" on the national inventory list of intangible cultural heritage. After it’s official presentation in June this year, 3 detailed expert evaluations of the element were done and all of them were positive. Lastly, the national committee also approved the nomination unanimously without any opposition. Thus the Czech Republic is the first country in the world to have general hunting recognised as national cultural heritage. This nomination was largely prepared by falconers. Thank you very much! Czech Hunting is now legally protected and it will also have guaranty of financial support from Ministry of Agriculture, which is quite important in crisis time. . *** From a 1950's Czech Hunting Book "We found this wonderful 1950s Czech hunting book in the little used book shop where we picked up the falcon school chart below. It opens to the map above, detailing where native game could be found through the former Czechoslovakia, followed by countless photos of those species, humans hunting those species, and then humans filling their homes and bellies with them, as well." ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() http://hollisterhovey.blogspot.com.au/2009/11/prague-acquisitions-1950s-czech-hunting.html |
