There is no alcohol limit for this. It will be even more expensive for repeat offenders. The ban is part of a package of measures aimed at reducing the number of hunting accidents. There should also be stricter training and safety requirements, as well as an app that allows hikers to find out where hunting is currently taking place.

Hunting is very important in France. The French hunting association speaks of 1.1 million active hunters. According to authorities, during the last hunting season, which ran from September to March 2023, there were 78 injuries and six deaths in accidents, and the numbers are declining. Compared to twenty years ago, the number of fatal hunting accidents has decreased by 80 percent and the number of accidents with injuries by 62 percent.

However, there is a controversial debate about hunting in France. This is not just about accidents, but also about whether there should be a privilege in nature for hunters or rather for those who seek relaxation.
