busyA lynx has appeared in the Italian Alps for the first time in 100 years. The authorities in Italy's South Tyrol region say the lynx, which crossed the mountains from Switzerland, does not pose a threat to livestock in the area. The lynx was fitted with a signalling collar after being captured in Switzerland in February.
I'm intrigued that the alpine lynx looks so different from the American kind.
