A badger has been sighted in nature reserve Kampina of Natuurmonumenten! The animal was discovered by a camera trap, which was there for another study. Fortunately shrews researcher Oswald Remery raised the alarm when he saw some strange paws on the footage.

Probably the animal is a male from the area around Boxtel. Natuurmonumenten is taking various steps to connect nature reserves with each other. Animals and plants can move and reproduce more easily that way. The arrival of the badger is a first sign that these connections work.
