Description

The aim of the project is to support and stabilize the residual black grouse population in the area of interest. The support will be implemented through a mosaic-like opening of overgrown habitats. This management, which will focus on the removal of successive vegetation, will create open areas suitable for the lekking and nesting of black grouse. At the same time, the removal of successive vegetation will limit habitats suitable for nest predators and also predators of adult individuals.
