F r a n k Prag-Burg Betr.i Nature and Wildlife Reserve Groß-Seelowitz Reference: Letter from the President of Moravia dated 18.ll.1942 For the declaration of the area of the forest office Groß-seelowitz to the nature and wildlife reserve, not forest interests of the protectorate forest office Gross-Seenowitz were decisive but mainly the concerns of the representation hunt of the Lord Reichsprotector. In order to arrange the representational hunt of the Lord Reichs protector in Seelowitz, the resettlement of certain Czech communities around Seeloitz was envisaged in the year l939, but then dropped again because of the difficulties involved. I should like to point out that this area, which was formerly part of the territory of Seelowitz, which now also belonged to Vlerrn, was a closed hunting ground for many decades, partly owned by the former Archduke Friedrich, d d d p sede d. On average, about 25 - 3o ooo pieces of low-wild came to the track in these parts of the territory. The people's economic value is proved by this figure alone. The Herr Reichsmarschall recognized the need to preserve this area in its unity, which is perfectly suitable for the low-wild, and as Reichsjägermeister, in so far as it concerns the part located in Niederdonau. Reichsguardor von Neurath made his completely compliant decision regarding the part situated in the Protectorate. Whereas in Pohrlitz, thanks to the intervention of the Reichsmarschall, there was a bald clarification in favour of hunting, the same basic conditions could only be created in the Protectorate after the declaration of the area Groß-Seelowitz to the nature and wildlife reserve. //
