Top‐predator carrion is scary: Fight‐and‐flight responses of wild boars to wolf carcasses
Predation risk largely constrains prey behavior. However, whether predators may be scary also after death remains unexplored. Here, we describe the ‘fight-and-flight’ responses of a prey, the wild bo...

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

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.

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.
