Chamois buck falls in love again
Widowed chamois buck is given a new “wife”
Chamois buck "Scharlinger" in the Falkenstein Nature Park in Schwarzau im Gebirge has been given a new companion in the form of "Burgi" from the Mostviertel. "Scharlinger" has been feeling increasingly lonely of late and has withdrawn more and more. Now he jumps across the meadows together with the young chamois goat.
The five-year-old chamois buck named "Scharlinger" had been feeling lonely in the Falkenstein Nature Park in Schwarzau im Gebirge for some time. His companion had died a year ago. Alois Waldherr, an attentive visitor, noticed that the buck had not been seen much recently because he had withdrawn out of grief. After consultation with the mayor, the idea was soon born to get "Scharlinger" a new companion.
They found what they were looking for at the Hochriess Wildlife Park in the Mostviertel region. The two-year-old chamois goat, who was christened "Burgi", has already been brought to Schwarzau and initial encounters were successful. "They sniffed at each other and also chased each other a little," explains Roland Kasper from Falkenstein Nature Park, who is convinced that the chemistry between the two is right.
The costs - amounting to around 2,000 euros - were covered in equal parts by the municipality and private donors Alois Waldherr and Klaudia Karner. And with a bit of luck, we can expect to see offspring in 2026.
The Falkenstein Nature Park is open all year round. You can find more information at www.naturpark-falkenstein.at
