First density estimates for Dinaric lynx - one of the most endangered Eurasian lynx populations in Europe: link.springer.com/article/10.100… #LifeLynx #InterMuc #CarnivoreEcologyLab univerzalj

When setting camera traps for elusive cats, like Eurasian lynx, it makes a lot of sense to place them at the scent-marking sites to increase sample sizes. But this needs to be taken into account when estimating densities with SCR to avoid underestimation: rdcu.be/dePeF

Happy to see new generation of Eurasian lynx kittens from a recoverying Dinaric population in Slovenia #LifeLynx

Using camera-trapping data from non-target species can be useful to study less charismatic (and poorly funded) animals. But apex predators can affect the behaviour of subordinate ones - as we observed between the snow leopards and smaller Pallas's cats🇲🇳 brill.com/view/journals/…

Cilj projekta #LIFELynx je dolgoročno rešiti in ohraniti populacijo alpskega risa v Dinaridih in JV Alpah🏔️🐅 Dokumentarni film o njem „Skupaj za rise“ je na 🇸🇮festivalu BOFF (Bovec Outdoor Film Festival) osvojil nagrado občinstva👏 Life Slovenija youtu.be/0wvsDALy8Hg?si…

Amazing short paper on a newly recorded behavior by @RubenPortasP and Miha Krofel that really shows how opportunistic spotted hyenas can be: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New paper! Felidae contributed to a global #cameratrap study of #mammal responses to COVID-19 shutdowns. Data came from 102 camera trap projects in 21 countries and included 163 species. Read the paper: nature.com/articles/s4155… #wildliferesearch #ecology #nature

#NewPaper: Working with a huge team of 220 co-authors representing 102 projects in 21 countries, we analyzed data from 5400 #cameratraps to ask how #wildlife behaviours changed during the COVID-19 “anthropause” nature.com/articles/s4155… ..1/

Število risov v Sloveniji je tekom projekta #LIFELynx narastlo iz 20 na 50. Ukrepi za preprečitev izumrtja naše najbolj ogrožene vrsta sesalca delujejo 💪 znanost.sta.si/3281026/po-zas…

Number of the critically endangered Eurasian lynx in Slovenia increased from 20 to 50 during the #LIFELynx project. Efforts to prevent extinction of our most endangered mammal are working! 💪 lifelynx.eu/the-life-lynx-…

Prva poglobljena raziskava o načinih sporazumevanja najbolj ogrožene vrste velikih mačk, ki jo je vodil dr. Miha Krofel, je odkrila kar sedem načinov komunikacije med snežnimi leopardi. delo.si/novice/znanote…

One of the first in-depth study into communication behaviours of snow leopards gave us a clue how to improve the efficiency of monitoring this elusive cats rdcu.be/eahmK Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology

Once near extinction, the Eurasian lynx is quietly returning to Slovenia. Across the Balkans visits the Ljubljana Zoo to meet those working to protect one of Europe’s most elusive predators. Watch Across The Balkans here: trt.world/cyd3
