A two year ban on hunting in Albania to protect endangered species, including the brown bear.
Hidden cameras
"Twenty hidden cameras placed by the IUCN wildlife monitoring team in Albania's Shebenik-Jabllanicë National Park in early June bring some exciting results: a brown bear, a wolf, a red fox, badgers, a wild cat, a European hare and a wild boar have been spotted, revealing the park’s spectacular wildlife. The camera trapping results will be used for the development of a management plan for this protected area"
They should try to do the same in the National Parks in Epirus, ie in the Vikos-Aoos National Park.
