Talking about habitat destruction, it's really bad in my home town of South Australia. You can go on a 4hr drive and just see paddocks, then past that point deep in the outback they become 'stations' where it's uncleared land but they let livestock roam, which pretty much destroys all the small shrubs. We do have massive areas of protected land in the middle of nowhere, but locally there isn't much, I would say 10% of it protected and that's only because there is nothing to mine there or the terrain is too steep for farming.
Norwegian here. The Nordic countries used to have a Nordic Passport Union. Nowadays, we are all part of the Schengen Area, even though Norway and Iceland are not EU members
Yes, Switzerland is Schengen as well. But sometimes they still check if you are transporting goods (not for passport control) so I thought it might be the same for Norway
You are funny guys, you Swiss, spoiled to the bone. I watched the whole video in anticipation of the problems with border crossing or check point, but none of them. But you are a good story teller, didn’t miss the video rolls much.
@@FabianFoppNaturephotography Isn't that obvious enough? Except for the cuckoos suddenly bouncing on you Swiss from the cuckoo cloks, who has been your enemy and what has been your problem in the last 500 years? :))
Not defending it at all. No comment on the practice in fact. However, leaving occasional trees in commercial forest is supposed to act as a refuge/interim point to maintain connectivity between not yet harvested tree areas.
I guess it could be used for several different things, but I have had them presented to me as seed trees. Clear cuts come back faster if you leave a few seed trees.

That doesn’t sound good at all 😕

Why spoiled? 😅

Horned Grebe is the American name. In the UK we call them the Slavonian Grebe
Thanks
There are both tame and wild reindeer. Around now the wild ones are being hunted.
Thanks for the info
Good luck Fabien!
Thanks

👍🏻 I‘m just doubting that this will in fact help many species
