Some trace elements, because of their high capacity for bioaccumulation, can pose a threat to the adequate development and growth of plants, animals and humans, which concerns mostly mercury (Hg) and its compounds that characterize by strong toxic properties. The aim of the research was to compare the Hg content in the Arenosols of arable fields (food plots), referred to as hunting plots, as well...
The aim of the study was to verify the hypothesis that the quality of male roe deer hunted in the Kielce region depends on the selected characteristics of the place of their earlier habitat (forest cover, soil) and the age of the individuals. As a criteria to verify that hypothesis we chose carcass weight, weight and height of the antlers and skull dimensions. Material consisted of carcasses and antlers...
The objective of this paper is to analyse the forest habitat selection by Capercaillie in Polish part of the Western Carpathians. The study was carried out in the Ujsoły Forest District located in the Beskid Żywiecki Mountains in years 2002−2004. Habitats were investigated with regard to the forest types, age classes of the main tree species, canopy closure and altitude. We established 28 linear transects...
The aim of the study was to demonstrate how the trophy quality of antlers of the red deer stags living in two large forest complexes in the Mazowsze region (central Poland) differs from those inhabiting other regions of the country. The study used the data describing the body and antlers weight of 272 stags shot in 2005−2014 in two large, separated from each other, forest complexes of Spała and Gostynin...
The results of the inventory of damage caused by roe deer in a 2−year−old apple orchard in central Poland permitted to evaluate the browsing intensity as well as the relationship between biometric characteristics of trees and browsing intensity. The research showed that damage caused by the roe deer was mainly caused by shoot browsing, then rubbing the velvet antlers against trees and bark stripping...
Study on variability of the spring and autumn density and habitat preferences of brown hare in the Lublin Upland (eastern Poland) was carried out in 2006−2015. The hunting acquisition of hare was suspended in this district during the research. The research methodology was based on the inventory of hare made by means of the strip taxation in spring and autumn. Monitoring of habitats, where individual...
The number of wild boars considerably increased in Poland at the beginning of the 21st century. We tested hypotheses that both the level of wild boar populations and rate of the increase in their numbers in Poland in the years 1999−2014 were dependent on some landscape factors, i.e. forest cover, crop field size and maize occurrence. Hunting bag was used as an index of wild boar abundance. The mean...
