For the third time, employees of the Zurich Wilderness Park Foundation, together with many volunteers and partners from the Sihl Valley, cleared the area around the old Sihlbrugg railroad station of invasive neophytes. The campaign was a great success: a much larger area than in previous years was cleared of various problem plants.

Zurich Wildlife Park has found a new home for its three male cubs at Straubing Zoo in Germany. The transportation of the three brown bears from Langenberg to Straubing last week went smoothly.

"Every year again, ..." begins a well-known Christmas carol. This phrase also applies to the moose in the Zurich Langenberg Wilderness Park. At the beginning of winter, the large deer switch their diet from deciduous trees to conifers. The unsold Christmas trees are very welcome.
