Habitat protection, i.e. game conservation, the true issues of the relationship between hunting and society: what are the best, most effective solutions? The "One With Nature" International Hunting and Game Management Conference will seek to answer these fundamental questions. The five-day event will start on Wednesday at HUNGEXPO Pavilion C.
Let's look at the details which are most exciting for the general public!
On the first day of this interactive and spectacular event, visitors can learn more about Namibia's conservation efforts, Germany's grey wolf population and the practice of close-to-nature hunting in Newfoundland.
On Thursday the focus will be on the relationship between wildlife and city dwellers: foxes in central urban areas, wild boars in our residential areas, deer in our gardens.
The third day of the Conference will focus on wildlife health. Hungary’s National Chief Veterinary Officer will speak about the fight against ASF (African swine fever), which is a major problem in our country. The final presentation will undoubtedly be one of the most exciting and visually engaging in the conference programme, as we will be able to watch a bird of prey undergoing a major medical intervention: endoscopic surgery.
On Saturday Balázs Németh is expected to make waves with a presentation on the ban on lead projectiles, which is causing controversy across Europe. Participants will also discuss highly topical and pressing issues: the situation of vehicle collisions with game; and objective, forward-looking drone-based assessment of game damage in agriculture.
On the fifth day visitors will be able to take part in a real field exercise as guests of Pilisi Parkerdő Forestry Company.
Entry is open every day at the entrance to HUNGEXPO Pavilion C on Albertirsai út, from 9:30 am – half an hour before the opening time for the rest of the World Exhibition. World Exhibition tickets also allow entry to the "One With Nature" International Hunting and Game Management Conference and FeHoVa PLUS.
To avoid delays on entry, we recommend that you purchase your ticket online in advance, as it is not possible to buy tickets at this entrance (Pavilion C).
