The country is a remarkable hunting destination, drawing many a hunters because of its large numbers of brown bears, wild boars, red deer, and chamois.
In Romania, hunting is regarded as a privilege, not a right, and is surrounded by a nostalgic and romantic aura as people pursue it as a noble passion, complete with certain rituals like botez vanatoresc (baptism) or tablou vanatoresc (picture).
Customs dictate that in big game hunting, in respect for the game and hunt, a tablou (English: image or painting) must be created, where all game is lined up for inspection, cleaned up as much as possible, with small pine branches in their mouths, in a photographic pose and by the hunting master, together with the other hunters and their fireamrs , and photographs are taken as a memory.
A "hunter's baptism" (botez vanatoresc) is performed for a novice hunter by his fellows when he kills a type of game for the first time.
Most times also a toast with liquor or wine is given in the honor of the hunt, the game and fellowship of hunters. After the end of ceremonies, sometimes, lavish meals and partying with folk music is to follow, according to one's wealth and mood. Ethics dictate that one should never shoot a female of anything, unless that is the predetermined quarry, or to shoot an animal while sleeping or drinking.
All hunting in Romania is legislated by AGVPS or National Association of Sport Hunters and Fishermen. Since 1930, Romania is a founder member of CIC(International Council for Game and Wildlife Conservation), and since year 2000, a member of FACE (Federation of Associations for Hunting and Conservation of the EU). AGVPS is active under the jurisdiction of ROMSILVA, or Department of Forestry. They have local clubs (named ocol silvic in Rom.), well organized, in every city or town and regulate hunting seasons and harvest numbers
Most hunting seasons in Romania for all big game, small game, waterfowl and upland game runs from mid autumn to late winter. The minimal wild boar and fallow deer rifle calibre in Romania is 6.5x57, while going up to 7x57mm Mauser for red stag and 7x64mm for brown bear. Using shotguns for wild boar is permitted, but forbidden for red stag and brown bear. Currently, all foreign hunters are welcomed to Romania and can hunt all species under out of country tariffs and regulations. See our hunting prices list.
The only big game animal truly hunted with dogs is the wild boar. Hunting dogs like Transylvanian bloodhound, Fox terriers and Airedale terriers are used. Hounds are rare and greyhounds are non-existent in the hunting field in Romania.
The concentration of brown bears (Ursus arctos) in the Carpathian Mountains of central Romania is the largest in the world and contains half of all Europe's population. 
According to CIC, the world record Eurasian brown bear trophy skin (687.79 CICpoints) was shot in Romania in 1985, and for the skull trophy, Romania has 2nd place (69.30 points).
Chamois hunting in this country ranks as one of the world's finest, in both specimens’ quality and level of challenge. According to the CIC, Romania accounts for the top world record chamois trophy at 141.1 CIC points, shot in Făgăraş in 1937, and unbeaten since, along with other seven of the world's top ten trophies.
Stag hunting refers to three species cerb carpatin or Carpathian stag, caprioror roe deer and cerb lopatar or fallow deer. Current national record is 264.51 CIC points, taken by Ronald Philipp on 22 Sep. 2003.
Wild boar hunting is the most common big game sport in Romania; wild boar is often used for meat as well as for trophies.
Hunting season for wild boar opens August 1 and closes February 15, but where considered varmints or pests, they can be shot any time of the year, with AGVPS approval. Methods used are waiting and stalking, but most popular are chase with dogs, usually terriers and scent hounds. Drives, where beaters drive the game to shooters waiting in stands who take shots at the running game, are also popular.
Wild boar drives may include other animals as well, including red deer, roe deer, rabbits, foxes, wolves, and even bears, leading to staggering numbers of game. Numbers like 185 boars in 2005, 186 boars in 2006 and a record of 240 wild boars in 2007 in single drive hunts !
National record for wild boar (tusk trophy) is of 144.0 CIC, points. Most boarstaken are weighing between 300-400 lbs., with sometimes old, solitary males up to 600 lbs.
Rabbit hunting is among the most common type of hunting. The open season is from November 1 to January 31. Virtually every hunter takes up this sport, using walking and stalking (la picior) with pointer dogs or through drive with beaters (goana). Forbidden techniques are waiting and night hunting. Firearms used are shotguns with pellets size 3–4 mm and rimfire rifles. It is not uncommon to see hundreds of beaters are used during drive hunts for rabbit, or others.
