This group will work on Tasks 1 to 4 of the Action focusing on NWFPs from animal origin (e. g. game, honey). WG4 will define the scope of the work to be carried out with the objective of illuminating issues of significance to European forestry. The impact of hunting on the management of forest areas for other NWFPs will be considered.
