It’s the middle of the rutting season. The #lynx rubs his cheeks and marks a woodpile with urine. In the daytime footage, the lynx is unfortunately stretching out of the camera trap’s field of view. You can tell by the position of its front legs 😻 #cameratrapping

We want you! Internship in the golden jackal project at @korafoundation.bsky.social

11 jours – 239 km – 3 cantons : un loup a fait un périple passionnant. Lors de sa présupposée recherche d’une femelle, il a traversé 3 cantons avant de revenir dans la zone où il se trouvait fin ’25. Il est possible qu’il soit passé par les corridors à faune des cantons de BE et FR. #wolvesandcattle

What a wonderful gift for New Year’s Day: a #lynx walked in front of my camera, which I had set up to film the starry sky. I still can't believe it. I made a short video out of it 😻. The full video will follow in the next post 😉#insta360pro2 #starryskyvideo

Nice portrait of a stone marten passing through our garden, or rather forest 😃. The date and time are incorrect. #cameratrapping

It is interesting to observe by means of CTs how wildlife react to lures (castorenom and valerian). In particular, the reaction of #wildboar. #cameratrapping #attractants #Alps

It has been a long time since I last saw so many #wildboars passing by my camera trap. Swiss Prealps #cameratrapping

Publiée dans @wildlifebiology.bsky.social, une étude @dee-unil.bsky.social & @korafoundation.bsky.social révèle que les #loups présents dans les #Alpes du Nord & le #Jura consomment majoritairement des cerfs, chevreuils & chamois. www.unil.ch/news/fr/1759... #Suisse #alimentation @unil.bsky.social

Que mangent les loups en Suisse ? 🐺🦌🧬 En Suisse, les loups se nourrissent principalement d’ongulés sauvages – en particulier de cerfs élaphes. Au total, les animaux sauvages représentent 88,3 % du régime alimentaire du loup. @fbm-unil.bsky.social doi.org/10.1002/wlb3...

A brief moment spent in the company of the ghost of our forests. This is the first time an individual has shown interest in the lure I put on top of the trunc. He disappears as suddenly as it appeared, balancing on the fallen tree trunk like #lynx like to do! #cameratrapping #Swiss #Alps

This is the first time a red #deer fawn has been detected by my #cameratrap. It is followed by a ten-point stag sniffing the attractant I placed for the Eurasian lynx. #cameratrapping #Swiss #Alps

This red #deer probably removed the cover I had placed over my #cameratrap to protect its lens and sensor.

Aujourd’hui en cette #journéeinternationaleduloup je vous invite à lire « Un loup ça sert à quoi? » de Ricardo Nouailhetas Simon. J’ai beaucoup aimé ce livre qui donne des informations factuelles sur ce que nous savons réellement sur le loup. Bravo à l’auteur! #internationalWolfDay

After this long dry spell, it seems that Eurasian #lynx detections are becoming more frequent again 😻. After the individual with rosettes, here is a new individual with spots. This type of coat pattern is rarer in the #Alps than in the #Jura Mts. 🇨🇭

You may you remember the bald #ibis couple Grazia and Oskar. They ended up nesting successfully in my village. 🇨🇭
