1 Winter wolf seminars in the Beskidy Mountains This winter Association for Nature "WOLF" are organising wolf seminars on the following dates: 9-13 January, February, March, 2006 The overall cost is 240. This includes accommodation; food (three meals per day); lectures, field trips and our assistance, Flights and transfers are not included. Participants will be shown how to identify different predator and ungulate tracks and how to recognise other evidence of wolf occurrence in the field, e.g. scats, scent marks, resting places and prey remains. You will also receive training in methods of data collection, use of field equipment and in various different research methods. Several lectures will be given to build knowledge of the biology, ecology, ethology and conservation problems of wolves in Poland. The area The seminars will take place in the Żywiecki Beskidy Mountains (part of the Carpathian range), in the Romanka Mountain range (altitude m asl), which is located in southern Poland adjacent to the border with Slovakia. The landscape is diverse, with densely forested slopes interspersed with high altitude meadows, natural mountain streams and rocky caves. This habitat is refuge to many species of mammalian predator, ranging in size from bears, wolves and lynx, to weasels. The forest is also inhabited by red deer, roe deer and wild boar, which are important prey species for the large carnivores, and the area supports a wide variety of other flora and fauna, including many rare and protected species. Accommodation The group will stay in a pleasant private pension, located on a mountain meadow called Plone (near Wegierska Gorka village), in the Zywiecki Beskidy Mountains area, 200m from a wolf territory. The accommodation is cosy and warm; rooms have a very simple arrangement with 3-4 beds (with bedding), table, chairs and wardrobe, and a private bathroom. Some rooms have a shared bathroom in the nearest hall. There is a big dining room with a fireplace, TV and a well-equipped kitchen, for the use of guests only. Basic equipment You will need good boots, warm and waterproof clothes, gaiters (gamaschen - to protect your boots and trousers against deep snow), a small backpack, box for sandwiches, vacuum flask, and torch. You should also bring a towel (there are no towels available in rooms), home shoes for relaxing after returning from the forest. You do not need sleeping bags, bedding is provided. Weather conditions We can expect 50 or more centimetres of snow, but this is not guaranteed. The temperature can fall to minus degrees Celcius, but can be much higher. So, be prepared for real winter. We will write you before your arrival what to expect weather-wise. For field trips there is the option to split into two groups, less and more advanced, so don t worry if you are not very experienced in winter conditions.
