The only wildcat I found was illegally killed by hunters during closed season. Photographed within Beljarica: five White-tailed Eagles by Snezana Panjkovic.

She has a captive-bred education bird named Xena, a Eurasian Eagle Owl. We released live mice into the flight so they could learn to catch and kill live prey. We would close the flight around 10 PM to protect them from predators, then we’d get up at four in the morning to open the door again. Release day came. It was great!
