Lovy v Karpatech – Komárek Julius (2015)

The excellent naturalist, hunter, and expert on Carpathian nature, Professor Julius Komárek, presents captivating stories inspired by hunting excursions in the Carpathian wilderness in twenty chapters. However, the book is not intended solely for hunters. The author dedicates it to all friends and lovers of wildlife, who will find not only descriptions of hunting experiences but also a partial picture of the fauna of large mammals living in the Carpathian-Tatra region. The text is written lightly and humorously, with the action taking place amidst enchanting wild nature. The author presents himself not only as a hunter but also as a zoologist and scientist. The book undoubtedly belongs to the golden fund of Czech hunting literature, and we believe that its sixth edition, which is being published after many years, will captivate a new generation of hunters and nature lovers, providing them with much enjoyment and education. The scientific and hunting legacy of Professor Komárek remains relevant today, perhaps with even greater urgency. His reflections and recommendations regarding endangered game in the Carpathians and the necessity for comprehensive protection of the entire Carpathian area are still pertinent today.
