Alpweiden mit Herdenschutzhunden
What this layer shows
Alpine pastures where official livestock guardian dogs protect sheep and goats from wolf and lynx. The dogs defend the flock against anything they see as a threat: hikers, bikers and above all people with dogs. The link leads to the livestock protection map, with advice on how to behave.
