Areas where hunting is suspended. A type of wildlife protection area established under the Law on the Protection and Management of Birds and Animals and the Rationalization of Hunting. Prefectural governors set these areas for periods of up to three years in order to promote the proliferation of game birds and animals in a certain area when the number of game birds and animals decreases. Each area is 1,500 hectares or more in size. The reason for the three-year period is that game birds and animals usually recover within two to three years if there are no significant changes to the topography and artificial capture is stopped. When the period expires, the closed hunting area is often opened to the public and made into a general hunting ground or a hunting area (paid hunting area), and the adjacent area is made into a closed hunting area, in a rotating system. Anyone who captures game birds and animals in a closed hunting area without special permission is subject to imprisonment of up to one year or a fine of up to one million yen.

狩猟を休止させている区域。「鳥獣の保護及び管理並びに狩猟の適正化に関する法律」によって設定された鳥獣保護区域の一種で、一定の地域における狩猟鳥獣が減少した場合、その増殖を図るために、都道府県知事が3年以内の期間で設定する。規模は1か所当り1500ヘクタール以上。3年という期間の根拠は、地形に著しい変化が加えられず、かつ人為的捕獲を中止した場合、狩猟鳥獣は通常2~3年で回復を示すためである。休猟区は、期間が満了すれば開放して、一般狩猟場もしくは猟区(有料狩猟場)にし、その隣接地を休猟区にするという巡回方式にすることが多い。特別の許可なく休猟区で鳥獣を捕獲した者は、1年以下の懲役または100万円以下の罰金が科せられる。 [白井邦彦] [参照項目] | | | |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
