As she straightens her rifle, Diana Trembles. Adrenaline flows through your body, as you orwise only know from sport. But this is about a life, it’s just erasing it. Your legs don’t do what y’re supposed to do, feet always bounce back. The wooden floor under her cracks. She pushes, shot sits. The wild boar, a Bache, sinks to ground.

It’s been a year since Diana Baths killed her first animal. She sits near Rhineland-Palatinate town of Loch at Meisenheim on number five, waiting for prey and recalls special moment in which her own body no longer wanted to obey her. That, her far said later, is called a hunting fever. Today, however, everything seems quiet. Only a bat is squeaking over her.
Diana Baths was lucky a year ago, because boar had perceived her too late. Although animals are very clever and actually excellent winds and Äugen, as it is called in Hunter’s language, so smell and see. Apart from Bache, 20-year-old has only shot a deer before. “You can’t hunt from now on.” As a child, Diana already moved with her far through woods, she may shoot herself for a year. Since n she is a young hunter, those who passed her exam less than three years ago.
The proportion of female hunters is increasing
The number of female hunters is higher in Germany than ever before. According to German Hunting Association (DJV), women made up only about one percent of all hunters in late 1980s. Today it is seven percent nationwide, in Rhineland-Palatinate, where Diana is hunting baths, even nine percent. On average, 20 percent of women sit in exam courses. One fifth of m are students, students or apprentices, such as Diana Baths, who studied sports.

But not only among women, but generally interest in hunting increases. Between 1990 and 2016, number of hunting licence holders grew by 22 percent, to 381,821.
Also Sarah Wirtz hunts in Rhineland-Palatinate. She is 29 years old and sits about 16 kilometers away from Diana Baths on a dome in Weinsheim, surrounded by a hide. Sarah Wirtz Escape. Half an hour ago, she left her Jeep furr up wayside and hung her rifle with orange shank over her shoulder. Orange cannot perceive most wild animals with ir eyes. Again and again young woman puts her Blatter on her mouth, a whistle that imitates reputation of roe deer or fawns. And it works out, a roe is actually popping up.
Now Sarah Wirtz looks at meadow lying in front of her and annoys herself. She saw goat several times, but re was always an obstacle in way. “The hit area is a big coffee platter.” She’s behind shoulder blade, she explains. That’s where heart sits. “I don’t like to experiment, I shoot only when I’m really sure.” The ROE has escaped. Since January this is your new hunting ground, 400 acres it is great. “It takes about a year to get to know each or really well.”
