SUMMARY:Excursion: Nature conservationists and landscape conservationists of a special kind - water buffalo in the Friedrichsthaler Polder 5/6
DESCRIPTION:Water buf­fa­lo have been kept in the Low­er Oder Val­ley Nation­al Park for sev­er­al years as agri­cul­tur­al live­stock. Even before the Ice Age\, wild water buf­fa­lo lived in the low­er Oder Val­ley\, as fos­sil finds show. In the nation­al park\, water buf­fa­lo are not released into the wild or kept as a sub­sti­tute for the wild form that has long been extinct. \nWater buf­fa­lo are fru­gal ani­mals. They can use feed of low­er qual­i­ty than the usu­al domes­tic cat­tle. Above all\, how­ev­er\, they can devel­op habi­tats that domes­tic cat­tle would avoid: wet­lands\, swampy ter­rain and bog sites. Wher­ev­er they graze they replace domes­tic cat­tle. The water buf­fa­lo are farm ani­mals that keep the mead­ows free and short for us so that the mead­ow breed­ers\, for whom the nation­al park was essen­tial­ly cre­at­ed\, can also find suit­able breed­ing grounds in the spring. They also serve to pro­tect nature. \nYou will find the water buf­fa­lo pas­ture in the Friedrich­sthaler Pold­er (5/6)\, east of the fed­er­al high­way 2\, between Friedrich­sthal and Gartz (Oder) (see map). The impos­ing water buf­fa­lo are man­aged by the board of direc­tors of the Low­er Oder Val­ley Nation­al Park Foun­da­tion\, Dr. Ans­gar Vöss­ing\, pre­sent­ed sci­en­tif­i­cal­ly and yet in a way that is easy to under­stand. Weath­er­proof cloth­ing and stur­dy shoes are advantageous. \n \nThe excur­sion takes place in the great out­doors\, all dis­tances can be main­tained and all cur­rent­ly valid state reg­u­la­tions are observed. \nThe excur­sion is free\, but dona­tions are welcome. \nWe kind­ly ask you to reg­is­ter in advance at the e‑mail address: d.lindemann@nationalpark-unteres-odertal.de\, tele­phone +49 (0)3332–219822 or via the book­ing func­tion at the bot­tom of this page. \nThe board \n
