\n Since March 2010, the Asso\u00adci\u00ada\u00adtion of Friends of the Ger\u00adman-Pol\u00adish Euro\u00adpean Nation\u00adal Park Unteres Oder\u00adtal eV (Asso\u00adci\u00ada\u00adtion) has had a herd of heck cat\u00adtle, a bull, up to now twelve peo\u00adple two cows and nine heifers.<\/p>\n
The cat\u00adtle are kept in an exten\u00adsive man\u00adner (0.2\u20130.5 live\u00adstock units per hectare) in a nat\u00adur\u00adal mead\u00adow land\u00adscape, social\u00adized with Konik horses.<\/p>\n
\tHeck cat\u00adtle<\/strong> are back-breeds of the aurochs, the wild urs, which were exter\u00admi\u00adnat\u00aded in Cen\u00adtral Europe in the 17th cen\u00adtu\u00adry and which can be traced back to the broth\u00aders Lutz and Heinz Heck. The zoo direc\u00adtors in Berlin and Munich crossed orig\u00adi\u00adnal Euro\u00adpean domes\u00adtic cat\u00adtle in such a way that, at least in terms of their phe\u00adno\u00adtype, i.e. their appear\u00adance, cat\u00adtle were pro\u00adduced again that look sim\u00adi\u00adlar to the wild Ur, but have so far been a bit small\u00ader. The aim of the breed\u00ading is to adapt the Heck cat\u00adtle not only in appear\u00adance, col\u00ador and horn shape, but also in size to the wild Ur, for exam\u00adple by cross\u00ading large cat\u00adtle breeds from Italy and Spain.<\/p>\n \tKoniks<\/strong> are orig\u00adi\u00adnal hors\u00ades, which in Poland are essen\u00adtial\u00adly the geno\u00adtype, but prob\u00ada\u00adbly also the phe\u00adno\u00adtype of the west\u00adern wild horse that was exter\u00admi\u00adnat\u00aded in Europe in the ear\u00adly mod\u00adern peri\u00adod, i.e. the Tarpan.<\/p>\n Heck cat\u00adtle and tarpans are extreme\u00adly robust, resilient, unde\u00admand\u00ading and fru\u00adgal ani\u00admals, weath\u00ader-resis\u00adtant and easy to han\u00addle with good care and reg\u00adu\u00adlar supervision.<\/p>\n \tThe asso\u00adci\u00ada\u00adtion as a con\u00adser\u00adva\u00adtion\u00adist<\/strong> con\u00adnects with the keep\u00ading of Heck cat\u00adtle and Koniks the expec\u00adta\u00adtion that they will loosen up the pre\u00advi\u00adous\u00adly rather monot\u00ado\u00adnous agri\u00adcul\u00adtur\u00adal land\u00adscape with low stock\u00ading den\u00adsi\u00adty and cre\u00adate new, diverse habi\u00adtats for plants and ani\u00admals. So your atti\u00adtude fits in per\u00adfect\u00adly with the fed\u00ader\u00adal government\u2019s bio\u00addi\u00adver\u00adsi\u00adty strat\u00ade\u00adgy. Species rich\u00adness and habi\u00adtat diver\u00adsi\u00adty should be promoted.<\/p>\n \tThe asso\u00adci\u00ada\u00adtion as a reg\u00adis\u00adtered agri\u00adcul\u00adtur\u00adal enter\u00adprise<\/strong> uses Heck cat\u00adtle and Koniks as live\u00adstock for organ\u00adic farm\u00ading. With the help of the mar\u00adket\u00ading of the breed\u00ading ani\u00admals or their excel\u00adlent meat, but also with the usu\u00adal agri\u00adcul\u00adtur\u00adal sub\u00adsi\u00addies, mon\u00adey can be made. The asso\u00adci\u00ada\u00adtion there\u00adfore sees the keep\u00ading of the Heck cat\u00adtle a con\u00adtri\u00adbu\u00adtion to the rec\u00adon\u00adcil\u00adi\u00ada\u00adtion of agri\u00adcul\u00adture and nature con\u00adser\u00adva\u00adtion and wants to set an exam\u00adple for adapt\u00aded man\u00adage\u00adment in pro\u00adtect\u00aded areas.<\/p>\n Heck cat\u00adtle and Koniks are not only impor\u00adtant for nature con\u00adser\u00adva\u00adtion and agri\u00adcul\u00adture, but also for the tourism<\/strong> . The impos\u00ading and well-for\u00adti\u00adfied ani\u00admals fit well into the nation\u00adal park region and rep\u00adre\u00adsent an urgent\u00adly need\u00aded tourist attrac\u00adtion, espe\u00adcial\u00adly in the pre\u00advi\u00adous\u00adly neglect\u00aded south of the nation\u00adal park.<\/p>\n \n\t <\/p>\n \n Thomas Berg \n\t <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[815],"class_list":["post-8729","presseerklaerung","type-presseerklaerung","status-publish","hentry","category-press-releases-from-the-national-park-association"],"yoast_head":"
