Abstract

This article seeks to relate hunting practices, of which some good examples have been given in this volume, to the way such practices are dealt with in the UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage 2003. The extraordinary ubiquity of hunting behavior, ritual, and representation creates an enormous field of study, which can only be touched lightly by such an international legal instrument.
