12 Säugetierarten mehr als vor 25 Jahren
Die bislang grösste Erhebung der Säugetiere in der Schweiz und in Liechtenstein ist abgeschlossen: 99 Arten wurden nachgewiesen, 12 mehr als bei der letzten Übersicht von 1995. Einige der Arten wie Wölfe oder Fischotter sind zurück, andere wie Walliser Spitzmäuse oder die Kryptische Fledermaus wurden neu entdeckt, berichten die Forschenden der Schweizerischen Gesellschaft für Wildtierbiologie im neu erschienenen «Atlas der Säugetiere». Basierend auf über 1 Million Beobachtungen dokumentiert das Buch das Vorkommen der Säugetiere so genau wie nie zuvor.
