It is proposed to use the Ukrainian method (after: Fundamentals of Hunting Management in Ukraine 1985), with additions for beaver census in Ukraine. The main provisions of this methodology are not debatable or innovative. The forestry (taxation) characteristics of the forest areas adjacent to the water body, the age of the settlement, the presence of beavers of different generations determined by gnawing marks, the amount of fodder harvested for winter, the number of landings and other indicators of infrastructure of the settlement. It is also important to assess the possibilities of resettlement of young animals, the state of the fodder base and its availability, protective conditions and the availability of conservation status of the territory. |
