M. Vysotsky popup.description2 Study object: information on hunting relating to the theory and practice of determination of the number and age and sex structure of game animals as a natural resource of national importance. Aim of the study: to develop recommendations on the most rational and effective methods for accounting game animals, based on the study of best practices and analysis of research done taking into consideration natural features of forestry and hunting areas in the plains of Ukraine. Methodology of the study: field methods (laying of sample plots, collection of field data on the account of the number and age and sex structure of populations of certain game species); theoretical methods (classification, comparison, logical generalization); empirical methods (analysis and generalization of statistical, official and regulatory documents on animals accounting); experimental methods (modelling, questioning and testing). Domestic and international best practices in game animals accounting in different natural zones were analyzed. The seasonal and species-oriented records of game fauna at stationary objects and hunting farms of different sectors in Polissya, Forest-Steppe and Steppe forest-hunting regions of Ukraine were done. The effectiveness, advantages and disadvantages of certain types of game animals accounting were evaluated. The draft Instructions on game animals accounting have been prepared. Data on the volume of game animal resources can only be obtained by accounting number of populations of each game species. Considering that number of animals is constantly changing, accounting serves as a basis for monitoring and national cadastre of game animals in the territory of Ukraine, as well as the basis for efficient management of hunting, rational use of game animals resources, development of ecological principles of conservation and reproduction of populations, and control over their numbers.
