The aim of this paper is to present comparative data of genetic monitoring of two popular game species in Vojvodina (Serbia), brown hares and wild boars. Determination and monitoring of genetic variability game species is the basis for adequate ecological management in biological conservation. First determination of genetic diversity in brown hare populations from Vojvodina recommended optimal three-year monitoring period for these populations. Continual monitoring of brown hares from Vojvodina included analyses of three commonly used microsatellite markers. New alleles were determined in all three analyzed loci and there was no population substructuring revealed. The current status of genetic variability in wild boar populations from Vojvodina was analyzed using five microsatellite loci. All loci presented high degree of polymorphism and some level of genetic structure was found.
