Who We Are
Founded in 1973, SOCIÉTÉ DE CHASSE LA FRATERNELLE is a registered nonprofit association dedicated to the responsible practice, preservation, and promotion of traditional hunting. For over five decades, our association has served as a cornerstone for ethical hunters, nature enthusiasts, and community members who believe in balancing tradition with conservation.
Our organization was created not simply to support hunting as a recreational activity, but to ensure that it is practiced responsibly, sustainably, and in harmony with the environment. We are deeply rooted in values of fraternity, stewardship, and respect—for wildlife, for nature, and for one another.
As a declared nonprofit association under French law and registered under RNA number W012007954, we operate with transparency, accountability, and a strong commitment to the public interest.
Our Mission
Our mission is to preserve and promote responsible hunting traditions while actively contributing to wildlife conservation, environmental stewardship, and the prevention of illegal hunting activities.
We are committed to:
Reconstituting and maintaining sustainable hunting practices
Creating and managing wildlife reserves
Preventing and repressing poaching
Regulating and controlling harmful species when necessary
Educating members and the community about ethical hunting and biodiversity protection
Our mission is not only about sport. It is about protecting ecosystems, maintaining biodiversity, and ensuring that future generations can enjoy and respect the natural heritage we safeguard today.
Our Vision
We envision a future where:
Hunting is universally recognized as a responsible, regulated, and conservation-driven activity.
Wildlife populations are balanced and thriving within healthy ecosystems.
Local communities actively participate in environmental preservation.
Traditions and nature coexist in harmony.
Young generations are educated in respect, responsibility, and ecological awareness.
Our long-term goal is to be a model association for sustainable hunting management and environmental responsibility, demonstrating that tradition and conservation are not opposites—but partners.
Our Core Values
1. Responsibility
We believe hunting carries a profound responsibility toward wildlife and nature. Every action we take reflects our commitment to ethical conduct and sustainable resource management.
2. Conservation
Wildlife preservation is at the heart of our activities. We actively contribute to maintaining ecological balance and protecting natural habitats.
3. Fraternity
As our name “La Fraternelle” suggests, we value solidarity and mutual respect. Our association fosters camaraderie, cooperation, and shared responsibility among members.
4. Integrity
We operate transparently and in full compliance with legal and environmental regulations. We stand firmly against poaching and illegal wildlife exploitation.
5. Education and Transmission
We are dedicated to passing down knowledge, skills, and ethical standards to younger generations to ensure continuity of responsible practices.
What We Do
1. Reconstitution of Hunting Practices
One of our founding purposes is the reconstitution of hunting in a structured and responsible manner. This means organizing regulated hunting activities aligned with seasonal rules, population studies, and environmental impact assessments.
We promote best practices, encourage safety training, and ensure that all members adhere strictly to current regulations and conservation standards.
2. Creation and Management of Wildlife Reserves
We actively participate in the creation and maintenance of wildlife reserves, ensuring protected areas where species can reproduce and thrive without disturbance.
These reserves:
Promote biodiversity
Protect vulnerable species
Maintain ecological balance
Support scientific observation and monitoring
By dedicating land to conservation, we contribute to long-term sustainability rather than short-term exploitation.
3. Prevention and Repression of Poaching
Illegal hunting undermines conservation efforts and threatens ecosystems. A key pillar of our mission is the repression of poaching.
We work in collaboration with authorities and local stakeholders to:
Report illegal activities
Raise awareness about legal obligations
Promote ethical standards
Encourage responsible behavior among hunters
Our association stands firmly against any practice that harms wildlife unlawfully.
4. Regulation of Harmful Species
Environmental balance sometimes requires the regulated control of certain species classified as harmful or invasive. This is conducted strictly within the framework of national and local regulations.
Such actions aim to:
Protect crops and agricultural lands
Preserve native species
Prevent ecological imbalance
Reduce risks to public safety
Our approach is always measured, legal, and conservation-focused.
5. Community Engagement and Education
Beyond field activities, we serve as a community hub where knowledge, tradition, and environmental awareness are shared.
We organize:
Informational meetings
Training sessions on safety and regulations
Awareness campaigns on biodiversity
Community events that strengthen social bonds
By engaging members and residents alike, we build a culture of respect for nature.
