Otter monitoring in Styria 2017/18
We monitor the Otter population in Styria in co-operation with the University of Graz (Prof. Steven Weiss) by a spraint survey under 650 bridges (same as studied by Andreas Kranz in 2011) and by estimating otter densities with molecular methods within selected study areas.
The main goal of the project is a good estimation of the distribution and population size of the otter in Styria.
