We conducted a questionnaire survey to clarify the present situation of local hunters and issues to develop and secure them for sustainable hunting undertaken in 4 towns in Wakayama Prefecture, Japan. We focused on the holding years of hunting license and divided targeted hunters into two groups by 20 years. The hunters who have held license for more than 20 years use mostly guns for hunting. The talents who can conduct the group hunting as readers are in them. Therefore, human resource management is important for sustainable hunting activity, especially of veteran hunters who hold local knowledge about wildlife and hunting itself.
