Abstract
The environment of wild animals and thus hunting has changed significantly in the last few years not only in the Czech Republic, which is in the focus of this article. There are certainly many influences that cause changes in game behaviour and even though the purpose of this text is not to discuss them in more depth, I would like to highlight the considerable increasing recreational and touristic pressure on nature and the landscape, especially in recent years.
Not only the coronavirus pandemic has caused that spending of leisure time has massively moved from all other mostly indoor sectors of hobbies and entertainment into nature. The growing recreational pressure on landscape, regardless of season, represents a long-lasting trend causing issues that even the supreme authorities are aware of.172 This phenomenon affects natural behaviour of game when it naturally brings with it a change in the conditions of hunting itself.
