The Eurasian lynx was close to extinction in Scandinavia in the 1930s. Since the 1950s, the population slowly recovered and forms three subpopulations in northern, central and southern Scandinavia. In Norway, the Eurasian lynx was subjected to an official bounty between 1846 and 1980 and could be hunted without license. In 1994, a compensation scheme for livestock killed by lynx was introduced to save the animal from extinction. #wildlife #myculture #Lynx #Norse #animal

For hundreds of years Swedes and Norwegians have called for their animals this way. Some still do. #Tradition #Herding #Animal #Farm #myculture https://youtu.be/TRT8_m8aoow
