We found a dead Lynx
24.02.2022
On 24.02.2022, ZTP received an information from Forest Manager of Forest Discrict of Kalisz Pomorski about killed lynx on terrain of Kalisz pomorski. ZTP Employees after confi
Rming the information, arrived at this place and started the investigation of lynx body
Unfortunately, it turned out that this was a female born in the wild!!!!
Futhermore, she was in estrus and nearby there was a male individual, so they could copulate.
There was a high Chance, that she was pregnant! We are frightened by this act of agression towards animals. We started releasing lynxes two years ago and they still didnt receive acceptance from local communities. When crew from ZTP arrived at the given coordinates, they found out a bullet that probably killed the lynx. We hope that Police will find the murderer. Currently there i san investigation.
This event is really sad for us, becausue first of all, Lynx born in the wild was killed, second of all, it is most likely that she was a daughter of Rózia- lynx that was brought by ZTP as first individual. This information was confirmed by genetic research.
Happy end!

Story of Rudy
01.02.2022
Mange (small parasite) it is a big threat for lynxes and other wild animals (for example foxes and wolfs). Infected animals are losing almost whole hair and on their skin, wounds are appearing. Wounds and crusts, also on paw pads, makes animals unable to move (which means they are unable to hunt for food!). They die from sickness, hunger and exhaustion.
In such a bad condition, we found Rudy. Fortunately, our specialist manage to save him. Rudy received medicine and was rehydrated. First success came after some day, because He started eating. His health was getting better day after day and in December, we verify that ilnness was erradicated! Now all we have to do is to rebuild his physical condition, so according to plan, by 2 days, ashe will return to wild life!
