A decade of monitoring the critically endangered Balkan lynx in its core area: Insights from spatial capture recapture models
No full textMonitoring the status of endangered species is essential to guide conservation and management measures, especially for populations facing isolation and small numbers. The Balkan lynx (Lynx lynx balcanicus), the most endangered subspecies of the Eurasian lynx, survives in the southwestern Balkans with fewer than 50 mature individuals. Obtaining accurate population estimates is challenging for such a rare, wide ranging and elusive species. We used camera-trapping and Spatial Capture-Recapture (SCR) modelling to provide the first reliable density estimates of the Balkan lynx in its core area, Mavrovo National Park and surroundings, over a decade-long monitoring period. Across five sessions, we recorded 176 detections over 9439 realised camera trap nights, identifying up to 10 individuals per session. Despite a low number of recaptures, our multisession analyses reveal a decline in density (SE) over the past decade, from 2.3 ( ± 0.7) lynx per 100 km2 of suitable habitat in 2013 to 1.2 ( ± 0.4) in 2023. We compared densities estimated independently for each session or as a trend, with and without excluding unsuitable habitat. These findings provide the first robust density estimates for the critically endangered Balkan lynx and confirm concerns about the state of the population. Our results underscore the value of long-term, systematic monitoring to detect changes in population density. While density estimates are comparable to other lynx populations in Europe, the observed decline, combined with the genetic state of the population, highlights the urgent need for enhanced conservation efforts

Of Victor Hugo an<l of Alexandre Du-

! told:
j Nor was tbe great poet ashamed to
| roll hla It-s* even at a funeral. He seised
i the opportunity at tbe obsequies of
] one of hi* own sous. It happeited that
j on th* way to the cemetery the pro-
<-*aslon [tensed a traveling menagerie,
and tbe lions, for whatever reason.
I stopp-*d ronring JusI as Victor Hugo
waa In front of their cage. Hts com-
j pnnlon. a minor poet namsd Pelleport.
! drew his attention to tbe fact. "Mas-
| tsr,'' he whispered, "the lions reeoguta*
| you and hush tbelr voices. Tbe king
of beasts Is silent In tbe presence of the
| king of men.** Victor lingo bowed and
j turned the matter orer In hla mind.
Then, after medtfatton. he aald: "I-eite-
| [Hirt, that was a happy thought of
i yours. Couldn't yoit write something
[ about It?" And Pelleport wrote a eon-
■ net about It, nnd tlie fame of tbe mas*
i ter stood on a higher plnnscle than
i orer,
And finally there was tb* caae of Do-
1 mas. oT whom It may almost b* said
; that bis whole life wss an adrertlee-
ment. Some ooe once said of htm that

! Ho certainly did mnny things almggt
i as absurd a* tbst In hla restless pur-
salt of reclame. One of tils delights
* was to clothe bis nobis porportloo* In

himself to design the unlf-M-m ln which

achieved a tremendous advertisement
by conducting a well known actreea to
a court ball to which sbe had not beea

ment by s'lowlng himself to bs sued
for nondelivery of • feullletoa. He
was utterly ln the wrong, and be last
' hi* rase, but be kept the court tn roar*
of laughter while he explained bis Ht-

In securing tbe names of thlrty-slx

their names recorded on the panel,
but In preventing others from accepting summons.
"I worked oely a few hours lo

The ease Ib which twelve women

as advocate* oj clean JournaIlsm.lt
Is that of the people against A. A.
Klog, publisher of the Watts News.
sgalBst whom a complaint" was Issued by Deputy District Attorney
Graham cbarglog the publicatloa of
obscene and Indecent matter.
Tbo publication was an. incident
In the campaign preceding tho wet
and dry election to be held November 1Mb, and King, who Is conducting a fight for the "dry." Is said to
bavo offended a member of tfae opposing ranks. Wben tho latter met
King he Is alleged to bavo rubbed
bis finger down tbo editor's nose
and delivered himself of sundry
comments concerning King's personality, whlcb wero neither to thc
letter's liking, nor fit matter for
repetition In cold typo. Nevertheless, th* remsrka of thc aforesaid
offended member wero printed, and
tho complaint Issued.
It was said by Justice Cassldy
yosterdny that tbo case has aroused
so much laterest lt Is probable that
the Justice court will bo abandoned
and the trial tako place In Odd Fellows' Hall.
Editor Times: Word bas Just
been received from Andrew Carnegie tbat our request for money for
an extension of tbe library and the
purchase of the vacant lot at tbe
rear of tho building can receive no
further attention and tbat "our
Ideas of expenditure are out of al)
proportion to our population." Now
It !• evident that these requests arr
decided according to hard and fast
rules and that no account Is taken
of iocs! conditions. !t was carefully
explained to Mr. Camogl* lhat
library population Is by no moans
confined to the 4,486 people which
the census shows aa living within

wish to attend the affair. Thero
will also be streetcars to meet tfae
train from Saa Fraacttco to eoovey

Ing which the present building hss
been occupied we have spent inore
than three limes tbe amount forufae
library required by tbe terms nf lhe
original gift of 810,000. and 'that
the expenditure* for' last year, aad
tbe budget for tbls year, are fonr
times the required annual figure of
p.000. During tbls seven years
tbe number of books In the library,
the number of books In circulation.
■ aiid the rumt-er of subscribers'
ca-rds la force have more than
doubted.
Our building Is already becoming
crowded, aad la a abort time an addition will be Imperative. The new
plans provide for a periodical room,
an outdoor reading room and *
men's room where gsmes as well sa
readfog may oe Indulged In. To
expaad, it Is absolutely necessary
that wo buy the vacant lot. We
caa get oothlng from Mr. Carnegie.
But arc wc going to allow tbls rebuff to settle the matter? It seems
to mo tbe next move Is up to us.
and what wc do must be doae quickly. We must buy thst lot before
someone else wants It more than.we
do. and tbo only say to do It Is by
popular subscription. If we can do
tbls It Is very probable that the
council will Include a sum In next
year's budget sufficient to at least
begin th* needed Improvements, No
mooey Is available from tho town
now, nnd we cannut wait until next
July.
Although It has not been goner*
nlly known that a request had boon'
mnde to Mr. Carnegie for money.'
tbo need of securing tho lot has'
been apparent to many, and quite a'
number have spoken to the librarian:
about subscribing to a fund for If
purchase. Several have even made-
definite subscriptions and Miss Had*
den already has promises for 3,300 to buy tho lot,'
but tbat Is less thsn 81 each for
everyone In town. Let's get busy
sod show Mr. Carnegie that we do
not need bis help.
