A forest stroll in the forest Almindingen on the Danish island Bornholm may in the future offer the sighting of a herd of grazing bison. This may be the result if the pilot study launched by the Ministry of Environment gives green light for getting the largest land animal of our continent, the European bison, back in free range on Danish ground.
On the 24st of March 2010 the first European bison would become reintroduced in Germany, Rothaargebirge. LHF is - together with Artis Zoo, Amsterdam - one of the keen supporters of this reintroduction process. Because of the heavy snow is the earlier planned release oft the animals was postponed.
