In February, one of our cameras caught three lynx cubs on film. We have 30 cameras in operation around the county and have received nearly 20 images in a dozen places. The cameras are important for us to have a good knowledge of how many lynx we have. The survey will run from 1 October to the end of February. So far we have documented three family groups in the county: North Olofström, Northern Karlshamn and Eastern Karlskrona.
All have been caught on film, but we have been able to trace 2 of the families in the snow. The kits in the film are from the north of Kyrkhult. Photographer Le Carlsson.
For a accurate results in our inventory, it is important that the public report if a lynx or any other of the big predators are spotted. You can report via skandobs.se or phone call to our predator tracker / inspectors, which can be found on the county website.
