• Chamois, Carpathian coat of arms... 243

    Steep ridges chamois protects wolves, but not by poachers.I was Guţanu in Bucegi, in a place where the path to the slope creep among spruce stands, mountain pine and grassland, and so well camouflaged that no hunting, no hunting is not indifferent to me. Pack of wolves seemed close enough to manage the herd of black goats and I was wondering if and how can I prevent a massacre. For I must admit, though goat hunting by wolves is part of more settled order of nature, I found it difficult to remain completely neutral: chamois is one of my favorites since 1984 and have been involved with the monitoring, restocking and research devoted to this species. But the goats I have saved the dilemma: immediately jumped on a policy difficult to access, where watched with interest his efforts to climb walls wolves. The talented climber of the wolves managed to achieve the policy, but in that moment, several elegant leaps, goats climbed on a porch and more difficult to reach, just above it. Instead

  • Capra Neagra, Blazonul Carpatilor... 246

    Crestele abrupte apără caprele-negre de lupi, dar nu şi de braconieri.Eram pe Guţanu, în Bucegi, într-un loc unde poteca se strecoară la baza abruptului printre molidişuri, jnepenişuri şi pajişti, şi atât de bine camuflat, încât nici vânătorii, nici vânatul nu se sinchiseau de mine. Părea că haita de lupi a reuşit să se apropie sufi cient de cioporul de capre-negre şi mă întrebam dacă şi cum aş putea preveni un masacru. Căci trebuie să recunosc, deşi vânătoarea caprelor de către lupi face parte din ordinea de mult statornicită a naturii, îmi era greu să rămân cu totul neutru: capra-neagră este una dintre favoritele mele şi începând din 1984 am fost implicat în acţiuni de monitorizare, repopulare şi cercetare dedicate acestei specii. Dar caprele m-au scutit de dilemă: au urcat imediat pe o poliţă greu accesibilă, de unde priveau cu interes strădania lupilor de a escalada pereţii. Cel mai talentat alpinist dintre lupi a reuşit să atingă poliţa, dar, în aceeaşi clipă, din câte
