Moose hunting enthusiasts pursue various reasons - from harvesting meat to winning a personal trophy. But for whatever reasons moose hunting is organized, a shooting license must be required.
Where to apply for a license
A license for elk shooting is a form of a certain established form. Organizations for obtaining documents for shooting differ depending on the region. But most often the formalities can be settled in the Rosselkhoznadzor or in its territorial branches, which are located in the very places of the proposed hunting. As a rule, these are nature reserves or hunting grounds, which are protected by the state.
In order to obtain a license to shoot moose on public lands, you should contact your local authorities. If the territory belongs to a legal entity or is in a long-term lease, then this document is issued by the legal entity.
As a rule, a hunter can only get a one-time permit. A long-term license for the production of animals that are classified as hunting facilities is issued only to legal entities.
Documents for obtaining a license
To obtain a license, you must have a complete package of documents with you, otherwise the process may be delayed. You must first pay a state fee, and when applying for a shooting permit, attach a receipt confirming the fact of payment.
