The contribution deals with the legal regulation of a management of alien animal species. The main problem with the alien species is their invasive behaviour, so part of the contribution also looks into the regulation of invasive alien species.
At the beginning, it provides the introduction to the issue and explains basic terms, i.e. alien species and invasive alien species and difference between these two. Than it looks into the description of some relevant international legal regulation, legal regulation of the European Union and Czech legal regulation, where important international conventions, regulations and directives of the European Union and national legal regulation dealing with the issue are analysed.
The basis of the Czech legal regulation is Act No. 114/1992 Coll., on Nature and Landscape Protection, which will be amended in the near future to adapt the European regulations so part of the contribution also deals with this amendment.
