Fish otter mapping Johnsbach and Enns 2014

The investigated area in the Gesäuse National Park is part of the Natura 2000 area of Ennstal Alps/Gesäuse, where the otter is explicitly mentioned as a protected property. This project continued monitoring at Johnsbach and Enns. Bridges and riverbank sections were examined for slogans and footmarks. The otter was also detected throughout the entire investigation area in 2014.本次调查区域位于格绍国家公园（Gesäuse National Park）内，隶属于恩斯塔尔阿尔卑斯山脉/格绍（Ennstal Alps/Gesäuse）的自然2000（Natura 2000）保护地范围，该区域明确将水獭列为受保护对象。本项目延续了在约翰斯巴赫（Johnsbach）与恩斯河（Enns）的监测工作，研究人员对桥梁及河岸区段进行巡查，以搜寻水獭的粪便标记与足迹痕迹。2014年，研究人员在整个调查区域内均监测到了水獭的活动踪迹。
