Preliminary info from www.artemis-hunting.com Below we provide some information about the types of hunting in Croatia however this information is basic and we will provide more detailed information to all our customers before they are allowed to begin hunting. Birds are hunted with shotguns either with the help of hunting dogs, beaters, or by waiting. Hunting is strictly regulated and must be carried out in groups of a minimum of 3 people. Shooting is allowed with shotguns (including semi-automatics) and lead pellets charged with a minimum of 28g of pellets. Big game hunting is usually done with bolt action, lever action and semi-automatic rifles. The exception is wild boar hunting, which can be done with all types of shotguns and combination guns loaded with slugs, at distances of up to 50m. The wild boar is the only type of game that can be shot at while it is moving, and hunted with the use of dogs. All other types of big game can be shot at only when they are stationary and the use of dogs is not permitted. NOTE: Wild boar is usually shot at while it is moving, at distances of about 30 metres. We thus recommend the use of red dot riflescopes with a maximum magnification of x4. We also recommend the use of combination and express guns as it is very important to be able to shoot quickly and repeatedly. Concentration, focus and silence are of vital importance in this type of hunting. Shooting is allowed only if the target is clearly visible to avoid the possibility of wounding fellow hunters, dogs or beaters.
