Markhore’s hunting fee is $67,500 for international hunters in G-B where hunting season lasts till June. <br />This year the G-B government auctioned hunting permits for four markhors, 60 ibexes and eight blue sheep. Besides markhors, hunting fee for Himalayan blue sheep and ibexes have been fixed as $8,800 and $3,000, respectively. <br />The trophy hunting programme was first launched in Bar area of Nagar valley as an effort to discourage illegal hunting of endangered wildlife. <br /> <br />The official said hunting is carried out under the Convention on International Trade of Endangered Species of Wildlife, and is allowed only in notified areas of G-B in collaboration with the relevant communities. <br /> <br />“Threatened species in G-B, markhors in particular are hunted by foreigners in return for thousands of dollars,” said the official. <br /> <br />With each hunt, the G-B government provides 80 per cent share to the respective local communities while the rest goes to government accounts. <br /> <br />Northern Areas Of Pakistan is your destination for daily Exploring with fresh videos every day. <br /> <br />Follow my social media accounts for daily mind-blowing Destinations. <br /> <br />Subscribe us on YouTube - <br />https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNzOkZEcKBRPK949JLZuxLg <br /> <br />Follow us on Dailymotion - <br />http://www.dailymotion.com/northernareasofpakistan <br /> <br />Follow us on Twitter - <br />https://twitter.com/NorthernAOP <br /> <br />Like us on Facebook - <br />https://www.facebook.com/northernareasofpakistan <br /> <br />Follow us on Instagram - <br />https://www.instagram.com/northernaop <br /> <br />Follow us on Pinterest - <br />https://www.pinterest.com/NorthernAOP <br /> <br /> <br />If you have any copyright issues then please contact me directly on - <br />northernareasofpakistans@gmail.com <br /> <br />Thanks for taking the time to view Northern Areas Of Pakistan Videos.
