Status of the lynx (_Lynx lynx_) in the German Alps from 2005-2009
2011  Acta Biologica Slovenica (54): 81-83

We give a short overview of the monitoring results of lynx in the 5-year period 1995-2009. There is no confirmed evidence that there are lynx in the German Alps. Single individuals might have visited the area but signs occur only sporadically. In 2008 Large Carnivore Network has been established to identify and document signs of lynx, wolf and bear. It is the first step to systemize the lynx monitoring. A natural recolonization of the German Alps is not expected in the near future.
