According to The Slovenian Central Register of Large Carnivores, 257 brown bears have been extracted in Slovenia in the last 6 years period. Shooting accounts for 88 of all extractions. Traffic collisions are the only other noticeable source of bear mortality (7,8). Positive numerical and spatial trends of the population, as well as increasing human bear-interactions prove that prudent controlled harvest of brown bears will have to be kept among the future conservation management tools. It is important to stress that the shooting mortality with prevailing share of males (67) among extracted animals, what implies changes in sex structure of adult animals, and accounts for high rate of brown bear population reproduction.
