Animals in Chemnitz
Veterinary office publishes guide
"Animals in Chemnitz" is the title of a guide published by the veterinary office of the city of Chemnitz. The guide introduces local animals and aims to raise awareness of the different behaviours of animal species. With tips on keeping animals and protecting nature, it is aimed at animal and nature lovers. Readers are given information on feeding animals and in which situations wild animals actually need help, which interventions in nature are really useful and how damage can be avoided through correct behaviour.

Encounters with stone martens, raccoons, foxes, wild boar and deer are no longer unusual in cities. This sometimes gives rise to fears, for example when foxes no longer show escape behaviour or a large swarm of bees has taken up residence. It is not uncommon for problems to arise when lawns are overturned or property is damaged by animals.
This raises the question: What is the right behaviour to adopt when encountering wild animals? This question also arises when encountering escaped, injured or dead wild and domestic animals. Readers can find answers to these questions in the guide.
