Hunting
The area of the village is the home of hunters. Professionals spend 4-5 nights a week in the near forests.[citation needed]
In January and February they hunt for boars, foxes, deer, etc. (Boars can be hunted throughout the whole year.) In March, hunters mostly go for roes.[citation needed]
Hunters say it is necessary to rarefy the wild animals because they reproduce so quickly. However, they focus their hunt on the weak ones.[citation needed]
