Tips
The Eurasian lynx was considered extinct in Hesse. From around the turn of the millennium, sightings of the approximately
German Shepherd-sized big cat around the Hoher Meißner. The University of Göttingen was commissioned to monitor the lynx population using camera traps. It was possible to detect a small splinter population in the north of Hesse, which collapsed in the course of 2015, presumably as a result of several lynxes becoming ill with fox mange. uni-goettingen.de/de/der+luchs+in+hessen/627419.htmltranslated by
