Improving habitat connectivity for lynxes

Wildlife corridors are of enormous importance for the connectivity of lynx in Switzerland. There are over 300 wildlife corridors of supra-regional importance nationwide, over two thirds of which are currently either only passable by wild animals to a limited extent or not at all. The federal government and cantons have therefore planned the restoration of numerous wildlife corridors. In the canton of Fribourg, for example, the restoration of two wildlife corridors is now taking concrete shape.
