Der Luchs im Jura - Eine Uebersicht zum aktuellen Kenntnisstand
2002  Full Book

This report deals with the current situation of the lynx in the Swiss Jura Mts. The background for this is the new lynx management which is being implemented according to the Swiss Lynx Concept. Measures that are going to be taken have to base on good and reliable data which requires a sound monitoring. During the past few years, the number of lynx observations were stable but on a low number in the south-western part of the population, whereas it was increasing in the north-eastern part. With this report, we would like give an overview to the institutions concerned which should form the basis for the design of the monitoring and the coordination of the lynx management in the Swiss Jura. However, the management of the lynx population has not only to be coordinated between the cantons, but also between Switzerland and France.
