This is the first lynx in this area! Lynx female were released to adaptation pen, where she will be training her abilitys. We hope that it will not last long, this individual has got the features necessary for survival, such as timidity and does not like human company (it means that animal will avoid us, which is extremely important for survival for these cats). Before releasing Moira, because that was the name of the cat, she received a telemetry collar, which we can keep track of the animal's actions. Keep your fingers crossed for her :)

Like in every month, we prepared a few curiosity about lynxes:
About lynx activity.
Lynxes, like other cats, are most often active at night. During the day they rest in their hiding places. Most often these are inaccessible places, between the forest thicket, invisible to foreign eyes. At night, they are looking for prey.
Unfortunately, yesterday (5/8/2019) around 10 we received a notification from the Dobrzany Forest District, that on Saturday (3.08) dead lynx was found near Chociwel on railway tracks. The animal was found by members of the "Battalion" Association. On 5 August at around 12 o'clock a local visit took place with the participation of the police. Lynx was sent to the authopsy, which took place around 18.00. The results will be described in a special protocol, probably the lynx did not die cause of the disease, but many other changes indicate that death was not natural. At this stage, we are not able to clearly state the cause of death - the lynx's body was found in an advanced state of decay. Further research is ongoing.
