In 2023, the Hunters Association of Slovenia organized an international lynx conservation conference entitled ‘Hunters and lynx conservation in Europe’. Representatives of hunting and other nature conservation organizations from 10 different European countries were present at the conference. They had the opportunity to hear about the involvement of hunters in various activities of the LIFE Lynx project, the status of the lynx at the European Union level, other lynx reintroduction projects in Europe, and how the problem of illegal killing of lynx is being tackled in the scope of the project and in Austria. For those who were unable to attend the conference and are interested in the topic, we have prepared the Book of abstracts, which is available here.
