A bear was captured in Aukštaitija – a beast inspected the properties of hunters

“We have received clear evidence that honey attracts bears. Right next to the Bitininkytė Museum in Stripeikiai. Many thanks to Gediminas for sharing!” The short report reads.

This is not the first time we have fixed slippers with us. This is explained by the fact that they are not sedentary and roam quite long distances and by the fact that there are more and more surveillance cameras in the forests, so it is likely that the browns simply enter the lenses more often than before.

“It just came to our knowledge then. We are no different from Estonia and Latvia. There are around 800 of them in Estonia and even hunting is allowed. The slippers come to us from Belarus and Latvia. I remember how we had discussions with Belarusians a few years ago. and they said they don’t have bears, that they come from Lithuania. I think that in ten years the bears will settle with us. Only we, like wolves, will not see them. These are sensitive animals that will be able to live with us, “explains S. Paltanavičius and says that not all large forest beds are suitable for this animal.

For example, in the heat of mushroom season in the Dainava forest, one resident sees another. With such intense movement, there is no place for animals to hide. For a large animal in such conditions, there is simply nowhere to lie. According to the naturalist, our national habits, when together with the Poles we are one of the most active mushrooms in Europe, annoy the animals. Swedes, for example, don’t go to the woods and they don’t collect everything in a row.

“Our national habits slow these animals down,” says the naturalist.
