    Sometimes the herd can be seen from the street. But the herd is not always in the same place.

      Anyone cycling along the cycle path through Lower Lusatia will come across a piece of wilderness with a warning: the auroxen are back. Almost, anyway. The robust animals in the pasture descend from old domestic cattle breeds and are genetically very close to the extinct ancient cattle.

      The information board is prominently located along the path and clearly explains the project's endeavors: extensive grazing, biodiversity conservation, and natural landscape management. Auroxen and Koniks (a horse breed) ensure that the areas remain open – without the use of mowers.

      Important: Do not feed them or step on them. The animals may look relaxed, but they are not cuddly toys. Anyone who gets too close not only risks trouble but also their own safety.

      The board provides easy-to-understand information and shows photos of the animals in their element – a great opportunity for a short break with an educational effect.
