Zaradi stalne problematike sobivanja ljudi in velikih zveri se redno pojavlja škoda na drobnici, ki jo povzročata medved, predvsem pa volk. Namen diplomskega dela je preučiti načine varovanja drobnice pred napadi zveri ter njihovo učinkovitost, pomanjkljivosti in slabosti. Z željo ohranitve velikih zveri in reje drobnice, ki učinkovito preprečuje zaraščanje obdelovalnih površin, so bili v diplomskem delu analizirani različni načini varovanja: varovanje z ograjami (začasne in stalne elektroograje ter masivne ograje), varovanje s pastirskimi psi, varovanje s pastirjem, varovanje z mešanimi čredami in varovanje z različnimi odvračalnimi sredstvi. Analiza načinov varovanja drobnice je pokazala, da še ne poznamo učinkovitega načina, ki bi v praksi 100% preprečil napad zveri. Z združevanjem različnih načinov varovanja prihaja do součinka, kar zmanjša verjetnost vdora zveri na pašnik, vendar imajo vsi načini varovanja pomanjkljivosti, ki se pokažejo v določenih situacijah v naravi.

• Title: Analysis of small ruminant protection methods against the attacks of large carnivores

Abstract

Permanent problematics arising from coexistence between humans and large carnivores cause damage on small ruminants that bears, but even more wolfs, are responsible for. The aim of this B. Sc. is to analyse ways to protect small ruminants from large carnivore attacks and investigate the effectiveness, shortcomings and weaknesses of each guarding system. Aiming to preserve both large carnivores and herds of small ruminants, which have a significant meaning in preserving cultivated land from being overgrown, we analysed different means of protection: fences (temporary and fixed electric fences, massive fences), shepherd dogs, shepherds, mixed herds and protection with different repellents. Analysis of these systems showed that we still do not know a guarding system that would provide 100% protection rate against large carnivore attacks. Combining different ways of protection causes a coeffect that lessens the possibility of a carnivore break in the pasture, but every protective system has shortcomings that show up in specific situations in nature.
