Popis: The data compiled by the State Statistics Service of Ukraine on wildlife management during 1995–2015 concerning density of ungulates and fur-bearing mammals were analysed. Dynamic trends in general abundance of these groups were determined, as well as their density in general and for separate systematic groups, which are, in our opinion, the most infor­mative indicators. The most important role in changes of the ungulates’ groupe have the species of family Cervidae. In fur-bearing mammals the order Lagomorpha has the similar role. The list of game mammal species included into the statistic information should be expanded and corrected according to the fauna’s current state and national hunting traditions. Currently applied census approaches have a number of deficien­cies requiring regulatory and methodological improvements because of the use of population prin­ciples in modern wildlife management.
